Statistics: Multidimensional Scaling
Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a set of data analysis techniques used to explore the structure of (dis)similarity data. MDS represents a set of objects as points in a multidimensional space in such a way that the points corresponding to similar objects are located close together, while those corresponding to dissimilar objects are located far apart. The investigator then attempts to “make se...
متن کاملThurstone scaling in order statistics
Thurstone scaling is widely used for presenting the priorities among the compared items. The mean values of the quantiles corresponding to frequencies of each stimilus’ preference over the other stimuli define the items’ locations on the psychological continuum of the Thurstone scale. This paper considers an extension of the scale levels to the aggregates of the independent covariates. In a sen...
متن کاملCorrosion and scaling in Bandar Abbas Pipe water network
Introduction: Scaling and corrosion is one the most important indices in water quality evaluation. Occurrence of scaling or corrosion may create disorder in economy of water and wastewater industry. In addition, corrosion produces by - products in water leading to health problem and reduction of water pipe life-time. In this study, the condition of scaling and corrosion in Bandar Abbas wa...
متن کاملQuantum statistics and allometric scaling of organisms
This article proposes a mechanism to explain allometric relations between basal metabolic rate and the body size of organisms. The model postulates that energy transduction in biological organisms is constrained by two classes of dynamical processes: The -rst process has its origin in quantum mechanics and the constraints which the coupling of electron transport and proton translocation impose ...
متن کاملsimultaneous scaling of soil water retention and hydraulic conductivity functions
abstract scaling methods, which are based on similar media theory, are used to simplify the statistic description of soil spatial variations. to simulate the water flow in heterogeneous soils, simultaneous scaling of soil hydraulic functions, including soil water retention and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity functions, is highly desirable. in the similar media theory, the simultaneous scalin...
