Background: Two main issues that challenge model building are number of Events Per Variable and multicollinearity among exploratory variables. Our aim is to review statistical methods that tackle these issues with emphasize on penalized Lasso regression model.  The present study aimed to explain problems of traditional regressions due to small sample size and m...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a nonparametric approach for measuring the relative efficiency of a decision making units consists of multiple inputs and outputs. In all standard DEA models semi positive real valued measures are assumed, while in some real cases inputs and outputs may take complex valued. The question is related to measuring efficiency in such cases. As far as we are aware, ...

In this paper, we use the generalized differentiability concept tostudy the fuzzy transport equation. We consider transport equationin the homogeneous and non-homogeneous cases with fuzzy initialcondition. We also present the solution when speed parameter is a fuzzynumber. Our method is based on the construction of the solutionsby employing Zadeh's extension principle.

 About 25 years ago, McCullagh proposed a method for modeling univariate ordinal responses. After publishing this paper, other statisticians gradually extended his method, such that we are now able to use more complicated but efficient methods to analyze correlated multivariate ordinal data, and model the relationship between these responses and host of covariates. In this paper, we aim to...

data grid is an infrastructure that controls huge amount of data files, and provides intensive computational resources across geographically distributed collaboration. the heterogeneity and geographic dispersion of grid resources and applications place some complex problems such as job scheduling. most existing scheduling algorithms in grids only focus on one kind of grid jobs which can be data...

in order to assess the satellite data for soil investigation, aster digital data 20 june 2006, field study and phisiochemical properties of soil, were analyzed. all landcover classes including soils are classified based onmorphological and physico-chemical characteristics. images were geocorrected and photomorphic units were selected based upon visual interpretation and sampling in study area. ...

Data Grid is an infrastructure that controls huge amount of data files, and provides intensive computational resources across geographically distributed collaboration. The heterogeneity and geographic dispersion of grid resources and applications place some complex problems such as job scheduling. Most existing scheduling algorithms in Grids only focus on one kind of Grid jobs which can be data...
