Hiawatha Designs an Experiment
نویسنده
چکیده
Hiawatha, who at college, Majored in applied statistics Consequently felt entitled To instruct his fellow men on Any subject whatsoever, Waxed exceedingly indignant Talked about the law of error, Talked about truncated normals Talked of loss of information, Talked about his lack of bias Pointed out that in the long run Independent observations Even though they missed the target Had an average point of impact Very near the spot he aimed at (With the possible exception Of a set of measure zero.)

The Influences of the Hiawatha LRT on Changes in Travel Behavior: A Retrospective Study on Movers
Following scant evidence for the effects of proximity to rail transit on auto use, we pinpoint the impacts of rail transit and neighborhood characteristics on both transit and car use in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area. In this vein, we apply the structural equations modeling approach on 597 residents who moved into the Hiawatha light rail transit (LRT) corridor after it opened. Usin...
متن کاملSpatial Analysis of Influences on Ridership on the Hiawatha Light Rail Transit System in the Minneapolis/St. Paul Metropolitan Area
In the United States, Light Rail Transit (LRT) systems have become a popular transportation alternative. Minnesota built its first light rail system in 2004 with the Hiawatha Line and additional projects are underway in the Minneapolis and St. Paul area. While light rail systems are attractive to commuters, they are expensive to construct and careful planning is ongoing to ensure their effectiv...
متن کاملFitting Second-order Models to Mixed Two-level and Four-level Factorial Designs: Is There an Easier Procedure?
Fitting response surface models is usually carried out using statistical packages to solve complicated equations in order to produce the estimates of the model coefficients. This paper proposes a new procedure for fitting response surface models to mixed two-level and four-level factorial designs. New and easier formulae are suggested to calculate the linear, quadratic and the interaction coeff...
متن کاملHydraulic conductance characteristics of peach (Prunus persica) trees on different rootstocks are related to biomass production and distribution.
We investigated hydraulic conductance characteristics and associated dry matter production and distribution of peach trees grafted on different rootstocks growing in the field. A single scion genotype was grown on a low ('K146-43'), an intermediate ('Hiawatha') and a high ('Nemaguard') vigor rootstock. 'K146-43' and 'Hiawatha' rootstocks had 27 and 52% lower mean leaf-specific hydraulic conduct...
