Some physical parameters, that are positive by definition, appear often as reciprocal pairs, like an electrical resistivity ρ and the electrical conductivity σ = 1/ρ , or a frequency ν and the period T = 1/ν . Theoretical arguments suggest that behind these pairs there are more natural parameters: their logarithms. This paper suggests a terminology that could bring those logarithmic units into ...

background: cutaneous leishmaniasis is one of the most important parasitic diseases in humans. in this disease, one of the responsible organisms is leishmania major, which is transmitted by sandfly vector. there are specific differences in biochemical profiles and metabolite pathways in logarithmic and stationary phases of leishmania parasites. in the present study, 1h nmr spectroscopy was used...

In some statistical process monitoring applications, quality of a process or product is described by more than one ordinal factors called ordinal multivariate process. To show the relationship between these factors, an ordinal contingency table is used and modeled with ordinal log-linear model. In this paper, a new control charts based on ordinal-normal statistic is developed to monitor the ord...

In statistical process control, the primary method used to monitor the number of nonconformities is the c-chart. The conventional c-chart is based on the assumption that the occurrence of nonconformities in samples is well modeled by a Poisson distribution. When the Poisson assumption is not met, the X-chart (individuals chart) is often used as an alternative charting scheme in practice. In thi...
