An empirical comparison of lead exposure pathway models.
Structural equation modeling is a statistical method for partitioning the variance in a set of interrelated multivariate outcomes into that which is due to direct, indirect, and covariate (exogenous) effects. Despite this model's flexibility to handle different experimental designs, postulation of a causal chain among the endogenous variables and the points of influence of the covariates is req...
متن کاملSoil is an important pathway of human lead exposure.
This review shows the equal or greater importance of leaded gasoline-contaminated dust compared to lead-based paint to the child lead problem, and that soil lead, resulting from leaded gasoline and pulverized lead-based paint, is at least or more important than lead-based paint (intact and not pulverized) as a pathway of human lead exposure. Because lead-based paint is a high-dose source, the b...
متن کاملAn Empirical Comparison of Statistical Chromaticity Models
The use of colour, as opposed to single band intensity data, has proved useful for tasks such as segmentation, [ZY96, Hea92], tracking, [AB97, IP95] and object recognition, [Mat96]. Moreover, the use of statistical models for distributions of colour data corresponding to regions of interest in images is an effective way of exploiting the extra information provided by this higher dimensional inf...
متن کاملan evaluation and comparison of physical and empirical models for estimation of leaf wetness duration
leaf wetness duration (lwd) is a key parameter in agricultural meteorology. because of difficulties involved in lwd being readily measured, several methods have been developed to estimate it from weather data. among the employed to estimate lwd, those that use physical principles of dew formation plus dew and/or rain evaporation have shown to be especially transmittable and of sufficiently accu...
متن کاملA note on : an empirical comparison of forgetting models
In the above paper, Nembhard and Osothsilp (2001) empirically compared several forgettingmodels against empirical data on production breaks. Among themodels comparedwas the learn–forget curvemodel (LFCM) developed by Jaber and Bonney(1996). In previous research, several studies have shown that the LFCM is advantageous to some of the models being investigated, however, Nembhard and Osothsilp (20...
