In this paper we analyze the use of statistics and associated problems, in three Czech biological journals in the year 2000. We investigated 23 articles Folia Biologica, 60 articles in Folia Microbiologica, and 88 articles in Physiological Research. The highest frequency of publications with statistical content have used descriptive statistics and t-test. The most usual mistake concerns the abs...

-Slow Feature Analysis (SFA) has been established as a robust and versatile technique from the neurosciences to learn slowly varying functions from quickly changing signals. SFA framework is introduced to the problem of recognizing prisoner’s actions by incorporating the supervised information with the original unsupervised SFA learning. Firstly, large amount of cuboids are collected in the mot...

A new method for calculating vocabulary size as a function of text length is discussed. The vocabulary growth is treated as a probabilistic process governed by the principle of "the restriction of variety" of lexics. Proceeding from the basic model of the vocabulary-text relation a formula with good descriptive power is constructed. The statistical fit and the possibilities of extrapolation bey...

This paper discusses region-based representations useful to create connected operators. The filtering approach involves three steps: first, a region tree representation of the input image is constructed. Second, the simplification is obtained by pruning the tree and third, and output image is constructed from the pruned tree. The paper focuses in particular on the pruning strategies that can be...

Linda Shields PhD, FRCNA, Professor of Nursing, University of Limerick, Ireland This is one of a series of short papers on aspects of research by Alison Twycross and Linda Shields You’ve found a piece of research that you think may be relevant to your practice but it is full of statistics and you can make neither head nor tail of them. Why do researchers bother doing statistical tests? What on ...

there are miscellaneous quality characteristics in healthcare which are interested to be monitored. however, monitoring each characteristic needs a special statistical method. there are some characteristics with very small incidence rates that it’s usually considered not to be necessary to monitoring them, since their incidence rates are so small that p and np charts are not able to monitor the...
