Use of artificial neural networks to estimate installation damage of nonwoven geotextiles
This paper presents a feed forward back-propagation neural network model to predict the retained tensile strength and design chart in order to estimation of the strength reduction factors of nonwoven geotextiles due to installation process. A database of 34 full-scale field tests were utilized to train, validate and test the developed neural network and regression model. The results show that t...
متن کاملThe efficient computation of the cumulative distribution and probability density functions in the diffusion model.
An algorithm is described to efficiently compute the cumulative distribution and probability density functions of the diffusion process (Ratcliff, 1978) with trial-to-trial variability in mean drift rate, starting point, and residual reaction time. Some, but not all, of the integrals appearing in the model's equations have closed-form solutions, and thus we can avoid computationally expensive n...
متن کاملEvaluation of estimation methods for parameters of the probability functions in tree diameter distribution modeling
One of the most commonly used statistical models for characterizing the variations of tree diameter at breast height is Weibull distribution. The usual approach for estimating parameters of a statistical model is the maximum likelihood estimation (likelihood method). Usually, this works based on iterative algorithms such as Newton-Raphson. However, the efficiency of the likelihood method is not...
متن کاملAn adaptive algorithm for clustering cumulative probability distribution functions using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov two-sample test
This paper proposes an adaptive algorithm for clustering cumulative probability distribution functions (c.p.d.f.) of a continuous random variable, observed in different populations, into the minimum homogeneous clusters, making no parametric assumptions about the c.p.d.f.’s. The distance function for clustering c.p.d.f.’s that is proposed is based on the KolmogorovSmirnov two sample statistic. ...
متن کاملOn the Concavity of Multivariate Probability Distribution Functions on the Concavity of Multivariate Probability Distribution Functions
We prove that the multivariate standard normal probability distribution function is concave for large argument values. The method of proof allows for the derivation of similar statements for other types of multivariate probability distribution functions too. The result has important application, e.g., in probabilistic constrained stochastic programming problems.
