Geographically Weighted Panel Regression (GWPR) model is a panel regression applied on spatial data. This research Fixed Effect Model (FEM) as the global and GWPR local for Human Development Index (HDI) regencies/municipalities in East Kalimantan Province data over years 2017-2020. The aim of this to obtain HDI data, well acquire factors that influence it. parameter was estimated each observati...

In this paper we have investigated the use of genetic algorithm for the selection of weighting matrices of performance index for the linear quadratic control design. We can easily consider in the fitness index of the genetic algorithm different design specifications and their verifications in different operations conditions. As well as a measure of robustness σ(S+T) evaluated at the input and a...

Both alcohol and tobacco use are accepted risk factors for laryngeal cancer. The authors used case-control data from previous studies to estimate the value of a previously proposed index of interaction between these two risk factors. In addition to the weighting procedure over exposure categories that was previously proposed for estimating a summary index, they applied maximum-likelihood techni...

This paper proposes a method to estimate the flicker severity index using the Hadamard transform. A weighting filter in the sequency domain is utilized for direct computation of the flicker index. The proposed method is compared with a flicker meter in the frequency domain that uses the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). It is seen by numerical simulations that the proposed method yields flicker sev...

The breeding objective defines the selection emphasis placed on individual traits based on the economic importance of each trait. In PIGBLUP, the $Index defines the breeding objective based on the profit function developed by Stewart et al. (1990). The profit function was based on two main equations quantifying a sow herd sub-objective (SHSO) and a growing-finishing subobjective (GFSO). Informa...

17-53 ABSTRACT Both physical form and chemical nature of fiber is important to ruminant animals. A recently developed method for determining particle size distribution was used to characterize typical distributions for forages and total mixed rations (TMR) from the Mid-Atlantic region of the U.S. An effective fiber index (EFI) and modified effective fiber index (MEFI) are proposed which link ph...

Standard term weighting methods derived from experience with text collections have been used successfully in various spoken document retrieval evaluations. However, the speech recognition techniques used to index the contents of spoken documents are errorful, and these mistakes are propagated into the document index file resulting in degradation of retrieval performance. It has been suggested t...

Recently, Fullér et al. [Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 2010] introduced a new f -weighted index of interactivity, ρf (A,B), between marginal possibility distributions A and B of a joint possibility distribution C for any weighting function f . They also left two open questions in connection with the lower limit for f -weighted possibilistic correlation coefficient related to the improved index of int...

The synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) has been previously employed to increase the penetration and to extend the depth of focus. This is particularly important in high frequency ultrasonic imaging because dynamic focusing using arrays is not yet possible. However, performance of the SAFT is limited due to its high sidelobes. In this paper, an adaptive weighting technique based on a f...
