Reflection Loss is a Parameter for Film, not Material

Archive Film Material – A Novel Challenge for Automated Film Analysis

Automated indexing and searching of videos has become an important requirement, due to the availability of large amounts of media in that form held, for example, by broadcasting companies, museums, and on the Internet. The field of content-based video retrieval focuses on the analysis of a video’s content, making it automatically searchable by computers. Typical tasks in video retrieval are the...

Estimation of Scale Parameter Under a Bounded Loss Function

     The quadratic loss function has been used by decision-theoretic statisticians and economists for many years.  In this paper  the estimation of scale parameter under a bounded loss function, which is adequate for assessing quality and quality improvement, is considered with restriction to the principles of invariance and risk unbiasedness. An implicit form of minimum risk scale equivariant ...

ESTIMATION OF SCALE PARAMETER UNDER A REFLECTED GAMMA LOSS FUNCTION

In this paper, the estimation of a scale parameter t under a new and bounded loss function, based on a reflection of the gamma density function, is discussed. The best scale-invariant estimator of tis obtained and the admissibility of all linear functions of the sufficient statistic, for estimating t in the absence of a nuisance parameter, is investigated

Electromagnetic Design Optimization: Application to a Patch Antenna Reflection Loss on a Textured Material (“Metamaterial”) Substrate

The Single Nucleotide Polymorphism rs2305957 is not Associated with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss

This study was conducted in order to investigate the association between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2305957 G/A and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in a group of Palestinian women residing in Gaza strip. A retrospective case-control study was carried out during the period of May to August 2015. A total of 380 females including 190 recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) patients and 190 c...
