چکیده

Models are developed to adjust for measurement errors in normally distributed predictor and response variables and categorical predictors with misclassification errors. The models allow for a hierarchical data structure and for correlations among the errors and misclassifications. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation is used and implemented in a set of MATLAB macros.

Multilevel models for censored and latent responses.

Multilevel models were originally developed to allow linear regression or ANOVA models to be applied to observations that are not mutually independent. This lack of independence commonly arises due to clustering of the units of observations into 'higher level units' such as patients in hospitals. In linear mixed models, the within-cluster correlations are modelled by including random effects in...

Quality Assessment of the Persian Translation of John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men Based on Waddington’s Model of Translation: Application of Method A

Considering the statement that errors can affect the quality of translations, the need to adopt an objective model to analyze these errors has been one of the most debated issues in translation quality assessment. In recent decades, some objective models have emerged with an error analysis nature according to which evaluators can make decisions on the quality of translations. In this study, Met...

Experimental Analysis for Measuring Errors in Wheeled Mobile Robots (RESEARCH NOTE)

This paper presents experimental analysis of wheeled mobile robots. Mathematical modelling of the mobile robot is presented. The mobile robots consist of an omni-directional and three differential drive mobile robots are tested and moved in given trajectories and the systematic errors of the robots are determined. A new method for omni-direction mobile robot was introduced in which the robot wa...
