One of the most popular approaches to measuring productivity changes is based on using Malmquist productivity indexes. In this paper we propose a method for obtaining interval Malmquist productivity index (IMPI). The classical DEA models have been before used for measuring the Malmquist productivity index. The current article extends DEA models for measuring the interval Malmquist productivity ...

Rhodococcus equi is the causative agent of rhodococcosis in horses, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality in foals. This bacterium has also been isolated from a variety of animals and is being increasingly reported as a cause of infection in humans, mainly in immunosuppressed individuals. Laboratory diagnostics of R. equi infections based only on conventional microbiological methods ...

The classical method of process capability analysis necessarily assumes that collected data are independent; nonetheless, some processes such as biological and chemical processes are autocorrelated and violate the independency assumption. Many processes exhibit a certain degree of correlation and can be treated by autoregressive models, among which the autoregressive model of order one (AR (1))...

brucellosis is one of the most common zoonotic diseases in iran and human brucellosis is endemic in all parts of the country. growth of brucella is slow and blood culture of these bacteria by use of classical methods is time-consuming. furthermore, in endemic area culture is required for definitive diagnosis. in the present study, direct urease test and acridine orange staining were tried on th...

let r be a g-graded ring and m be a g-graded r-module. in this article, we introduce the concept of graded weakly classical prime submodules and give some properties of such submodules.

Modification of Newtons method with higher-order convergence is presented. The modification of Newtons method is based on Frontinis three-order method. The new method requires two-step per iteration. Analysis of convergence demonstrates that the order of convergence is 6. Some numerical examples illustrate that the algorithm is more efficient and performs better than classical Newtons method and ...
