Cure Models: Methods, Applications and Implementation

Likelihood Inference of Some Cure Rate Models and Applications

In this thesis, we perform a survival analysis for right-censored data of populations with a cure rate. We consider two cure rate models based on the Geometric distribution and Poisson distribution, which are the special cases of the Conway-Maxwell distribution. The models are based on the assumption that the number of competing causes of the event of interest follows Conway-Maxwell distributio...

Effective Mechatronic Models and Methods for Implementation an Autonomous Soccer Robot

  Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...

Sequential Methods and Their Applications

Concerns Coupled with Pedestrianization and Implementation Methods

Walking has always been the most natural, the oldest, and the most essential form of transportation and is still major form of moving, hence, it plays a vital rule in urban transportation. In fact, walking is the most important tool for seeing, being seen, observing city wide daily and social activities, discovering the values and hidden attractions in urban environment, and therefore, feeling ...

Augmented Reality Implementation Methods in Mainstream Applications
