Is a way to measure
-
The applications in this book are limited to the analysis of samples of fixed size. Applications to more general stochastic processes, including sequential analysis, will make a natural sequel, but are outside the scope of this book. In some measure this book is a product of questions asked by students and the need for a presentation avoiding special approaches for problems that are essentially related. It is my hope that the experienced statistician will see in this book familiar things in a unified, ifun- familiar, way, and that the student will find this approach instructive.

The frailty index (FI) is one way in which frailty can be quantified. While it is measured as a continuous variable, various cut-of points have been used to categorise older adults as frail or non-frail, and these have largely been validated in the acute care or community settings for older adults without cancer.

This book is an attempt to raise the level of awareness about the cyber threat and what to do about it. The cyber threat is a board of directors’ issue. Yet when some senior executives and board members hear the word “security” or “technology,” there’s a disconnect. They think it’s not their issue. Let the technology people deal with it. Let the security people deal with it. Although there is evidence that this perception is changing, we have a long way to go. The word “cyber,” they’re starting to get.

The main objective of the research "Assessing the accuracy of applying photogrammetry to take geometric measurements on building products" is to characterize the errors of the photogrammetry-derived geometric measurements on building products in a systematic, practical, and statistically significant way. In this research, we intend to use the off-the-shelf, portable digital cameras, instead of high-end, expensive cameras specially manufactured for photogrammetry applications.

In what way volume, concentration and dose affect block duration is controversial. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of dose, volume and concentration of mepivacaine on the duration of sensory and motor blockade in ultrasound-guided single shot axillary brachial plexus blockade.

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common infections in nursing homes (NHs). A high error rate of a UTI diagnosis based solely on clinical criteria is to be expected in older persons as they often present infections in an atypical way. A study was set up to assess the diagnostic value of signs/symptoms and urine dipstick testing in identifying UTIs in NH residents and to explore whether C-reactive protein (CRP) measured by point-of-care testing (POCT) can help in the diagnosis.

Network analysis is a powerful way of modeling chromatin interactions. Assortativity is a network property used in social sciences to identify factors affecting how people establish social ties. We propose a new approach, using chromatin assortativity, to integrate the epigenomic landscape of a specific cell type with its chromatin interaction network and thus investigate which proteins or chromatin marks mediate genomic contacts.

The ability to discover new cell phenotypes by unsupervised clustering of single-cell transcriptomes has revolutionized biology. Currently, there is no principled way to decide whether a cluster of cells contains meaningful subpopulations that should be further resolved.

There are many ways to measure the importance and the level of interdependent impact between consumption and production, in which structural path analysis is considered as one of the most powerful methods. Application of extended structural path method captures not only the linkages within the production system but also the transfer of the induced effect into different layers of impacts. Final demand purchases initiate production processes that ultimately lead to grow sectoral output into various channels. This evaluates the role of consumers' decisions in determining the production scale.

Tax compliance is the concern of many researchers and tax managers. Based on secondary data from tax authorities and primary data collected from 362 small and medium enterprises (SMEs), we assess the tax compliance of small and medium enterprises. Descriptive statistics and one-way analysis of variance are used to analyse the data. The results show that SMEs receive various types of support to enhance their tax compliance.

Osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip is a disease that entails a major burden for patients and the society as a whole. One way of measuring this burden for the patient is through impact on Health-related Quality of Life (HRQL). The Oxford Hip Score (OHS) is a well-known tool to measure HRQL in patients with OA of the hip.

The purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate the impact of short and long-term debt policies on economic values of energy sector in Saudi Arabia. Pooled OLS Regression model is utilized to analyze 8 years of energy companies’ data (2012-2019) to report the association between two measures of capital structure, namely; short-term and long-term debt policies, and firm economic value after controlling for firm size and inventory management.
