Logistic regression is a commonly used classification algorithm in machine learning. It allows categorizing data into discrete classes by learning the relationship from given set of labeled data. learns linear dataset and then introduces nonlinearity through an activation function to determine hyperplane that separates points two subclasses. In case logistic regression, most perform binary clas...

Tthe Zografos–Balakrishnan-log-logistic (ZBLL) distribution is a new distribution of three parameters that has been introduced by Ramos et el. [1], and They presented some properties of the new distribution such as its probability density function, The cumulative distribution function, The  moment generating function, its hazard (failure) rate function, quantiles and moments, Rényi and Shannon ...

two forage species alfalfa (medicago sativa), and sainfoin (onobrychis viciifolia scop.), at two consecutive growing season (spring and summer), were studied for their chemical composition and in vitro gas production characteristics. data on cumulative gas production (ml gas/g dm) were fitted to the non-sigmoidal model, and for evaluation of model, the concordance correlation coefficient (ccc) ...

fluorescent monitoring of dna amplification is the basis of real-time pcr. absolute quantification can be achieved using a standard curve method. the standard curve is constructed by amplifying known amounts of standards under identical conditions to that of the samples.the objective of the current study is to propose a mathematical model to assess the acceptability of pcr resulys.four commerci...
