Propagation Models and Fitting Them for the Boolean Random Sets
In order to study the relationship between random Boolean sets and some explanatory variables, this paper introduces a Propagation model. This model can be applied when corresponding Poisson process of the Boolean model is related to explanatory variables and the random grains are not affected by these variables. An approximation for the likelihood is used to find pseudo-maximum likelihood esti...
متن کاملEstimates of genetic covariance functions for growth of Australian Angus cattle from random regression models fitting different orders of polynomials
INTRODUCTION Random regression (RR) analyses have been suggested for the analysis of growth records for beef cattle. A previous analysis of a large set of field data fitted cubic regressions on age at recording for all random effects, i.e. direct and maternal, genetic and permanent environmental effects (Meyer, 2002a). This choice was determined by the fact that a cubic polynomial is the lowest...
متن کاملFitting growth curve models in the Bayesian framework.
Growth curve modeling is a popular methodological tool due to its flexibility in simultaneously analyzing both within-person effects (e.g., assessing change over time for one person) and between-person effects (e.g., comparing differences in the change trajectories across people). This paper is a practical exposure to fitting growth curve models in the hierarchical Bayesian framework. First the...
متن کاملImproved Estimates of Kinematic Wave Parameters for Circular Channels
The momentum equation in the kinematic wave model is a power-law equation with two parameters. These parameters, which relate the discharge to the flow area, are commonly derived using Manning’s equation. In general, the values of these parameters depend on the flow depth except for some special cross sections. In this paper, improved estimates of the kinematic wave parameters for circular chan...
متن کاملGrowth increments and biomineralization process in cephalopod statoliths.
A study on morphological, structural and biochemical composition of Sepia officinalis and Loligo vulgaris statoliths and statocyst endolymph was undertaken with the aim of determining the major factors affecting the deposition process of statolith formation and to clarify the cause for the poor definition of the growth increments in S. officinalis statoliths. It is suggested that the different ...
