Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Role of Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa B (RANK) and Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa B Ligand (RANKL) in Osteoporosis Risk: Gene Polymorphism and Soluble RANKL Level in Indonesia Post-Menopausal WomenLuluk Yunaini, Dwi Anita Suryandari, Linda Kusdhany et al.Hormonal changes in postmenopausal women may increase osteoclastogenesis that can lead to increased risk of osteoporosis. Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor Kappa B (RANK) and Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor Kappa B Ligand (RANKL) have an important role in osteoclastogenesis that involve in the regulation of bone resorption. In this study, we analyzed the Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNPs) within the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2018 · 8,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMemoryless Modified Symmetric Rank-One Method for Large-Scale Unconstrained OptimizationFarzin Modarres, Malik Abu Hassan, Wah June LeongProblem statement: Memoryless QN methods have been regarded effective techniques for solving large-scale problems that can be considered as one step limited memory QN methods. In this study, we present a scaled memoryless modified Symmetric Rank-One (SR1) algorithm and investigate the numerical performance of the proposed algorithm for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. Approach: The basic idea is to apply … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Weighted Rank CorrelationTahani A. Maturi, Ezz H. AbdelfattahProblem Statement: There have been many cases in real life where two independent sources have ranked n objects, with the interest focused on agreement in the top rankings. Spearman's rho and Kendall's tau coefficients assigned equal weights to all rankings. As a result, the literature proposed several weighted correlation coefficients with emphasis on the top rankings, including the top-down, weighted … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Finite-Sample Bias of the Autoregressive Parameter Under Rank-based EstimationSteven CookMonte Carlo simulation is employed to examine the finite-sample properties of the estimated autoregressive parameter associated with the Dickey-Fuller and rank-based Dickey-Fuller unit root tests. While the downward bias associated with estimator under the Dickey-Fuller test has long been noted in the literature, the corresponding properties for the rank-based test have not been considered previously. The results presented show that … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,242 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCost Efficiencies and Rankings of Flagship UniversitiesG. Thomas SavProblem statement: Each state in the U.S. touts a premier university as the flagship of its publicly funded higher education system. With decreased government budgets and increased interest in public management reforms, these institutions are being pressured to provide evidence of and set examples for ever greater improvements in operating cost efficiencies. The problem, however, is that empirical measures of … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 20 Jan 2012 · 7,507 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleApplication of Preference Selection Index and TOPSIS in Product Aspect Extraction and RankingSaif Addeen Ahmad Alrababah, Nawaf Omara AlsrehinDecision-making methodologies can differentiate between several types of criterion weights. The subjective weights of decision-makers are prone to be influenced by various factors, including their level of knowledge, experience and competency. This may result in the wrong evaluation of the criteria due to the inherent ambiguity of human judgments, leading to unavoidable assessment errors. Beyond that, while assessing the decision … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 7 · 24 May 2024 · 4,846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudy of Concentrated Solar Power Collectors with Organic Rankine Cycle and Magnetized NanofluidsSamuel Sami HowardThe performance of “magnetized nanofluids in a Parabolic Trough Concentrating Solar Collector (CSP)-integrated Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) and a Thermal Energy Storage (TES) systems are studied. The characteristics of magnetized nanofluids AI2O3, CuO, Fe3O4 and SiO2 as heat transport fluid circulating in integrated Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) with ORC and TES under different solar radiations, angles of incidence and different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2022 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEstablishing an Evacuation Network: A Path Ranking ApproachHoussein Alaeddine, Kamal Serrhini, Mindjid Maizia, Emmanuel NéronThe evacuation of population exposed to flood hazard requires the establishment of a specific transportation network. This is to compute escape routes to be taken by affected population. At evacuation time, inhabitants of affected area must be evacuated through transportation network to safety area. The main objective of this work is to provide assistance to rescue forces in terms of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 12 · 3 Dec 2019 · 7,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOn Concomitants of Ordered Ranked Set Sampling from Morgenstern FamilyMohammed S. KotbThis paper develops the distribution theory of concomitants in the context of ordered ranked set sample from the Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern bivariate family. Here, we derive the joint distribution of concomitants of two ordered ranked set sample and obtain their single and product moments alongside the correlation coefficient. Finally, an application of the results in establishing the moments and the variance-covariance for … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2017 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
