Parameters influencing deposit estimation when using water sensitive papers

Estimation of Binomial Parameters when Both n , p are Unknown

We revisit the classic problem of estimation of the binomial parameters when both parameters n, p are unknown. We start with a series of results that illustrate the fundamental difficulties in the problem. Specifically, we establish lack of unbiased estimates for essentially any functions of just n or just p. We also quantify just how badly biased the sample maximum is as an estimator of n. The...

Estimation of mating system parameters when outcrossing events are correlated.

Many plant species have mating systems characterized by a mixture of self-fertilization and outcrossing. Statistical estimation of the outcrossing rate has relied on a model of the mating process that assumes that successive outcross events within a family arise from independent draws of pollen from the total population of male plants. Although this assumption is likely to be most appropriate f...

Estimation of 3D density distribution of chromites deposit using gravity data

We inverse the surface gravity data to recover subsurface 3D density distribution with two strategy. In the first strategy, we assumed wide density model bound for inverting gravity data and In the second strategy, the inversion procedure have been carried out by limited bound density. Wediscretize the earth model into rectangular cells of constant andunidentified density. The number of cells i...

Differential Evolution’s Application to Estimation of Soil Water Retention Parameters

A Differential Evolution (DE) is introduced to predict the parameters of the soil water retention curve (SWRC) and it is configured for reliability and efficiency with the Unsaturated Soil Hydraulic Property Database (UNSODA). The main investigated dataset is 235 samples from lab_drying_h-t table and the testing shows that the data resource is reliable and steady. Some specific statistical comp...
