Refined Inference on the Scale Parameter of the Generalized Logistic Distribution Based on Adjusted Profile Likelihood Functions
( MDPI , 2022 , Article)We consider inference based on the profile likelihood function for the scale parameter of the generalized logistic distribution. This distribution is a generalization of the logistic distribution, a symmetric distribution ... -
Regression estimator under inverse sampling to estimate arsenic contamination
( John Wiley & Sons, Ltd , 2011 , Article)The fate of arsenic introduced to the environment as a result of the natural and human activities is an important issue. Surveys of arsenic typically involve sampling from a large area. Measuring arsenic concentrations in ... -
Regression-type estimators for adaptive two-stage sequential sampling
( Springer , 2013 , Article)Adaptive two-stage sequential sampling (ATSSS) design was developed to observe more rare units and gain higher efficiency, in the sense of having a smaller variance estimator, than conventional sampling designs with equal ... -
Relative infectiousness of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine breakthrough infections, reinfections, and primary infections.
( Springer , 2022 , Article)SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections in vaccinated individuals and in those who had a prior infection have been observed globally, but the transmission potential of these infections is unknown. The RT-qPCR cycle threshold ... -
Response Surface Methodology for Optimization of Operational Parameters to Remove Ciprofloxacin from Contaminated Water in the Presence of a Bacterial Consortium
( American Chemical Society , 2022 , Article)Ciprofloxacin (CFX) is a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic that is widely used to treat bacterial infections in humans and other animals. However, its unwanted occurrence in any (eco)system can affect nontarget ... -
A review on lithium recovery using electrochemical capturing systems
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article Review)Resource recovery from natural reserves is appealing and Li extraction from different brines is in the forefront. Li extraction by membranes is reviewed in the literature much more than electrochemical processes. However, ... -
Revisited carmichael's reduced totient function
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)The modified Totient function of Carmichael ?(.) is revisited, where important properties have been highlighted. Particularly, an iterative scheme is given for calculating the ?(.) function. A comparison between the Euler ... -
A rich learning lesson using the Poisson distribution
( Elsevier B.V. , 2007 , Article)In this note, we explore the rich information about inference that the Poisson distribution has. The source of this information is mainly the fact that the mean and variance of this distribution are equal. -
Robust adaptive learning control for different classes of dissipative vehicle systems
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2022 , Conference Paper)This paper presents a methodology that leverages learning techniques and robust control theory to design an adaptive controller for a wide class of linear dynamical dissipative vehicle systems. In particular, learning ... -
Robust Distribution-Free Hybrid Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Schemes Based on Simple Random Sampling and Ranked Set Sampling Techniques
( Hindawi , 2021 , Article)This paper proposes new nonparametric hybrid exponentially weighted moving average (HEWMA) control charts based on simple random sampling (SRS) and ranked set sampling (RSS) techniques using the Wilcoxon rank-sum W statistic. ... -
Robust index-tracking and enhanced index-tracking in portfolio optimization
( Ascociacion Internacional de Economia Aplicada , 2020 , Article)We study index-tracking and enhanced index-tracking problems in portfolio optimization under interval uncertainty for returns and covariance matrix. The proposed robust counterparts for both models are in the form of second ... -
Robust profile monitoring for phase II analysis via residuals
( Wiley , 2022 , Article)Many studies were conducted for fitting models using parametric and non-parametric techniques; in fact, their fits may be biased and have inflated the estimated variances when the model is misspecified, respectively. Thus, ... -
Robust stabilization of LTI negative imaginary systems using the nearest negative imaginary controller
( John Wiley and Sons Inc , 2023 , Article)This paper considers the problem of robust stabilization of linear time-invariant systems with respect to unmodelled dynamics and structure uncertainties. To that end, a methodology to find the nearest negative imaginary ... -
Robustification of CUSUM control structure for monitoring location shift of skewed distributions based on modified one-step M-estimator
( Taylor and Francis Inc. , 2019 , Article)Including three existing charts, a new approach employing a modified one-step M-estimator (MOM) with Cumulative Sum (CUSUM) control structure were evaluated and compared for their Phase II performances based on the average ... -
Rough oscillatory singular integrals on ℝⁿ
( Instytut Matematyczny , 2014 , Article)We establish sharp bounds for oscillatory singular integrals with an arbitrary real polynomial phase P. The kernels are allowed to be rough both on the unit sphere and in the radial direction. We show that the bounds grow ... -
Run Rules-Based EWMA Charts for Efficient Monitoring of Profile Parameters
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2021 , Article)In usual quality control methods, the quality of a process or product is evaluated by monitoring one or more quality characteristics using their corresponding distributions. However, when the quality characteristic is ... -
Sampling of Multiple Variables Based on Partially Ordered Set Theory
( Iranian Statistical Society , 2021 , Article)We introduce a new method for ranked set sampling with multiple criteria. The method relaxes the restriction of selecting just one individual variable from each ranked set. Under the new method for ranking, units are ranked ... -
SARS-CoV-2 antibody-positivity protects against reinfection for at least seven months with 95% efficacy
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Background Reinfection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been documented, raising public health concerns. SARS-CoV-2 reinfections were assessed in a cohort of antibody-positive persons ... -
