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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAsymptotic Properties of Local Sampling on ManifoldYury Aleksandrovich YanovichIn many applications, the real high-dimensional data occupy only a very small part in the high dimensional ‘observation space’ whose intrinsic dimension is small. The most popular model of such data is Manifold model which assumes that the data lie on or near an unknown manifold Data Manifold, (DM) of lower dimensionality embedded in an ambient high-dimensional input space (Manifold … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 26 Aug 2016 · 7,698 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSEQUENTIAL ESTIMATION OF THE SQUARE OF THE RAYLEIGH PARAMETERMohamed TahirThe problem addressed is that of sequentially estimating the square of the parameter of the Rayleigh distribution, subject to a weighted squared loss plus cost of sampling. We propose a sequential procedure and provide a second-order asymptotic expansion for the incurred regret. It is seen that the asymptotic regret is negative for a range of values of the parameter. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 19 Jun 2014 · 6,439 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractREFLECTION OF A WEAK DISCONTINUITY OF THE AXIS AND THE PLANE OF SYMMETRYBulat Pavel ViktorovichIn this article we consider the problem of discontinuous characteristic (weak discontinuity) reflection from the axis and the plane of symmetry of the supersonic flow. There is a known problem of perturbations radial focusing when during numerical calculations reflection of a weak perturbation wave from the axis of symmetry leads to an abrupt change in the distribution of dynamics variables … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 17 Apr 2014 · 6,529 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproximate Solutions of a Higher Order MHD Flow of a Uniformly Stretched Vertical Permeable Surface in the Presence of Heat Generation/Absorption which Resulted from a Quadratic ReactionO. K. KorikoHigher order MHD flow of a uniformity stretched vertical permeable surface in the presence of heat generation/absorption which resulted from a quadratic reaction was studied. The resulting coupled nonlinear partial differential equations is solved by asymptotic expansion. It was discovered that the maximum value of velocity occurs in the body of the fluid close to the surface not at the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,445 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPower Series Solution for a Two-step Reactive-diffusive Equation with Variable Pre-exponential FactorE.A. Adebile, O.K. Koriko, U.S. IdiongWe discussed in this research a power series method for solution of a two-step reactive-diffusive equation with variable pre-exponential factor. A transformation was used to fit in the geometry of the model to allow an asymptotic series expansion which is invoked in a two compartmental regions with respect to the spatial variable. Adequate matching conditions were used at the interface … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,851 accessesView PDF Cite
