to evaluate genotype × environment interaction (gei) of grapevine, 20 genotypes of grapevines with russian origin were evaluated at one location in urmia and four locations in takestan (two locations under full irrigation and two locations under drought stress). this research was performed in a randomized complete block design with three replications and three vines in each plot, in 2012-2013 s...

In this paper we develop an approach that synthesizes the best features of the two main methods in the estimation of production efficiency. Specically, our approach first allows for statistical noise, similar to Stochastic frontier analysis, and second, it allows modeling multiple-inputs-multiple-outputs technologies without imposing parametric assumptions on production relationship, similar to...

iranian female participation rate in the labor market of iran in the recent decade shows a increasing trend which amounted from 8% in 1999 to 18% in 2005.using parametric and non-parametric econometrics methods, in this research we aim to study the behavior of individual married females labor participation. our dataset consist of the annually budget survey of 2006 which is reported by statistic...

introduction of human development index (hdi) by undp in early 1990 followed a surge in use of non-parametric and parametric indices for measurement and comparison of countries performance in development, globalization, competition, well-being and etc. the hdi is a composite index of three indicators. its components are to reflect three major dimensions of human development: longevity, knowledg...

background : kernel smoothing method is a non-parametric or graphical method for statistical estimation. in the present study was used a kernel smoothing method for finding the death hazard rates of patients with acute myocardial infarction. methods : by employing non-parametric regression methods, the curve estimation, may have some complexity.  in this article, four indices of epanechnikov, b...

background: colon cancer is the third cause of cancer deaths. although colon cancer survival time has increased in recent years, the mortality rate is still high. the cox model is the most common regression model often used in medical research in survival analysis, but most of the time the effect of at least one of the independent factors changes over time, so the model cannot be used. in the c...
