چکیده

A method in the current literature used to estimate the density of bacteria in a sample solution is the most probable number (MPN) procedure. This paper considers the change in density of bacteria in the sample through time. The MPN with its variance for a fixed time point is just one module of the experiment and is treated as a generalization of the unrestricted maximum likelihood estimates used for cell probabilities in linear categorical data analysis. The MPN variance estimates are used to fit an exponential decay model over time by weighted least squares. When the models fit, comparisons of decay rates between population can

Categorical Perception of Facial Expressions Is Not a Homogeneous Effect

We studied the categorical perception on transitions between seven basic emotional facial expressions and explored the influencing factors. In Experiment 1, participants performed a multiple-choice emotion labeling task while observing basic or morphed (blended between a pair of basic emotions) facial expressions. In Experiment 2, other participants completed AB-X discrimination task. They obse...

Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Parameters in Generalized Functional Linear Model

Sometimes, in practice, data are a function of another variable, which is called functional data. If the scalar response variable is categorical or discrete, and the covariates are functional, then a generalized functional linear model is used to analyze this type of data. In this paper, a truncated generalized functional linear model is studied and a maximum likelihood approach is used to esti...

Replacement of salamon with shotor diluent and egg yolk with low density lipoprotein for chilled storage of ram semen

The present study investigated the possibility of replacing salamon with modified shotor diluent (MSD) and egg yolk (EY) with low density lipoprotein (LDL) for chilled storage of ram semen. Good quality semen (>80% progressive forward motility (PFM) of sperm) from 3 fertile rams was collected using an artificial vagina and pooled for each experiment. Low density lipoprotein was extracted from f...

A History of Selected Topics in Categorical Algebra I: From Galois Theory to Abstract Commutators and Internal Groupoids

This paper is a chronological survey, with no proofs, of a direction in categorical algebra, which is based on categorical Galois theory and involves generalized central extensions, commutators, and internal groupoids in Barr exact Mal’tsev and more general categories. Galois theory proposes a notion of central extension, and motivates the study of internal groupoids, which is then used as an a...

Electrochemical Determination of Mesalazine by Modified Graphite Paste Electrode with Poly (Benzoquinone) Chromium(III) Complex

In this work, for the first time poly (benzoquinone) chromium (III) complex (PBQC) was synthesized with a one pot, one step, simple and fast method. This novel polymer was used for modification of graphite paste electrode for electrochemical determination of Mesalazine. Moreover, this novel modifier was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Field emission scanning electron m...
