Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywords"BIVARIATE DISTRIBUTION" FOR INFRASTRUCTURES AMONG OPERATIVE, NATURAL AND NO MENOPAUSESRamalingam ShanmugamMenopause is not an illness but rather an important event as it changes the body physiology and mental cognition via hormonal changes. During data analysis of menopauses incidence data, new bivariate distribution is discovered. Their marginal, conditional distribution and statistical properties including the inter and partial correlations are explored and utilized to interpret menopauses data. A likelihood ratio hypothesis testing … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 23 Aug 2014 · 7,314 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn the Probability Density Function of the Test Statistic for One Nonlinear GLR Detector Arising from fMRIFangyuan NanRecently an important and interesting nonlinear generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) detector emerged in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data processing. However, the study of that detector is incomplete: the probability density function (pdf) of the test statistic was draw from numerical simulations without much theoretical support and is therefore, not firmly grounded. This correspondence presents more accurate (asymptotic) closed form … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,106 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTweaking Exponential Distribution to Estimate the Chance for More Survival Time if a Cancerous Kidney is RemovedRamalingam ShanmugamPatients with a malignant tumor in the kidney (recognized as hypernephroma in medical practice) are treated by what is known as nephrectomy (that is a surgical removal of the kidney) in addition to a combionation of chemotherapy and immunotherapy for the sake of more survival time. This articles develops and demonstrates a statistical methodology to assess the statistical significance of … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2013 · 6,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSpiral Binomial and Related Distributions for Obsession to AbortionRamalingam ShanmugamRepeated abortion is considered an important health concern by the pregnant women and the governments. Educating the public about the impact of abortion becomes the government’s responsibility. For this purpose, the government agencies turn to health and medical researchers for opinion about the impact of abortion. The public health researchers turn to data for clues and seek pertinent data information … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 13 Aug 2012 · 6,720 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIntervened 2-Tier Poisson Distribution for Understanding Hospital Site InfectivityR. ShanmugamProblem statement: Whether it is a surgical site or medical treatment at a hospital site, the nurses in particular and the entire medical team including surgeons/physicians in general undergo a risk of being infected ironically by the patients whom they intend to disinfect. There are 2-tiers of patients at the site. One type consists of patients who are internally and … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2012 · 6,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Probit and Logistic Regression Models in the Analysis of Dichotomous OutcomesAmrutha Jose, Mariyamma Philip, Lavanya Tumkur Prasanna, M. ManjulaProbit and logistic regression models are members of the family of generalized linear models, used for estimating the functional relationship between the dichotomous dependent and independent variables. The current study is designed to find the performance of logistic and probit regression models in different conditions under multivariate normality. The objective of the study is to compare the performance of probit … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2020 · 17,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Modeling of Temperature Extremes Behaviour in GhanaTwumasi-Ankrah Sampson, Nyantakyi Agyei KwadwoThis paper focuses on modeling the extreme maximum temperature in Ghana using the extreme value theory. This is to inform decision-makers to help them plan appropriate risk mitigating measures to reduce the damage caused by drought. The block maxima with Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) and the General Pareto (GP) (with “all excesses” and decluster peaks) were used on 113 years … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2019 · 7,117 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShortage Level of Matching Kidney and Pancreas Organs for Implant is EstimatedRamalingam ShanmugamOrgan transplants are increasingly done worldwide. The organ donors might be dead or alive. There are legal, ethical, medical and administrative issues to procure organs and to transplant them. However, the donor’s organs must fully match the recipient’s requirement before they are quickly transported as the time is the essence. The kidney or pancreas organs are more in demand. When … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 1 Nov 2013 · 6,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIs Cancer Recurrence Postponed By a Treatment? A New Model AnswersRamalingam ShanmugamDuring a treatment period of a cancer patient, the medical team ponders over a question: Is patient’s cancer recurrence significantly postponed by the medication, even if the illness is not completely cured? This question could be answered with data evidence if the data are analyzed with an appropriate model and a suitable methodology. A scanning of the literature reveals that … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
