چکیده
This paper derives the distribution of the difference between the distances to the first and the second nearest facilities. Facilities are represented as points of regular and random patterns, and distance is measured as Euclidean and rectilinear distances on a continuous plane. Since the difference between the distances is regarded as the additional travel distance of customers when the nearest facility is closed, the distribution of the difference represents the reliability of facility location. The distribution of the difference between the road network distances is also calculated to evaluate the reliability of actual facility location.

Sampling methods have a theoretical basis and should be operational in different forests; therefore selecting an appropriate sampling method is effective for accurate estimation of forest characteristics. The purpose of this study was to estimate the stand density (number per hectare) in Arasbaran forest using a variety of the plotless density estimators of the nearest neighbors sampling me...

متن کاملOn the Second Order Behaviour of the Bootstrap of L_1 Regression Estimators
We consider the second-order asymptotic properties of the bootstrap of L_1 regression estimators by looking at the difference between the L_1 estimator and its first-order approximation, where the latter is the minimizer of a quadratic approximation to the L_1 objective function. It is shown that the bootstrap distribution of the normed difference does not converge (eit...
