چکیده
Among them, Y is the n q random observation matrix; e is the n q random error matrix, , nm kq X Z is the design matrix that we are known, and r X m , r Z k , B is the p k regression parameter matrix that we are unknown, V and are positive definite matrices with the size q q and n n -order respectively. expresses product of matrix Kronecker. e expresses a column vector of the e straightened by column. In the model of (1), there are two more common kinds in the B estimator class [1], [2]: One is the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE), recorded as:

Comprising the Empirical Equations of Runoff- Sediment Resulted from Sediment Rating Curves and Artificial Neural Network (Case Study: Ghadarkhosh Watershed, Ilam Province)
Being available the accurate data on carried sediment has accounted as an important factor for making decision about constructing of river structures and determining of dam life. To accomplish this object, a number methods have been proposed so that sediment rate curving as a hydrological method has been developed for doing it. Ignoring differences between season's values causes to lower the pr...
متن کاملMalmquist Productivity Index Using Two-stage DEA Model in Heart Hospitals
Abstract Heart patients displays several symptoms and it is hard to point them. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) provides a comparative efficiency degree for each decision-making units (DMUs) with several inputs and outputs. Evaluating of hospitals is one of the major applications in DEA. In this study, a comparison of additive model with standard input oriented and output oriented M...
متن کاملTechnical Efficiency of Nigerian Insurance Companies: A Data Envelopment Analysis and Latent Growth Curve Modelling Approach
The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the performance of Nigerian insurance companies using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Because of the unavailability of the required data, the study is limited to ten Nigerian insurance companies for the period of five years from 2008 to 2012. The input employed were commission expenses and management expenses, while premium and investment income...
متن کاملModeling Vegetative Stage Response of Canola (Brassica napus L.) to Combined Salinity and Boron tresses
Boron (B) is essential to growth at low concentrations and limits growth and yield when in excess. Little is known regarding plant response to excess B and salinity occurring simultaneously. In this study, two models of Leibig-Sprengel (LS) and Mitscherlich-Baule (MB), originally proposed to explain plant response to nutrients only, were modified to evaluate canola yield response to combined le...
