aim : the aim of this study was to compare alternatives methods for analysis of zero inflated count data and compare them with simple count models that are used by researchers frequently for such zero inflated data. background : analysis of viral load and risk factors could predict likelihood of achieving sustain virological response (svr). this information is useful to protect a person from ac...

Finding the best way to optimize the portfolio after Markowitz's 1952 article has always been and will continue to be one of the concerns of activists in the investment management industry. Researchers have come up with different solutions to overcome this problem. The introduction of mathematical models and meta-heuristic models is one of the activities that has influenced portfolio optimizati...

mathematical models have the potential to provide a cost-effective, objective, and flexible approach to assessing management decisions, particularly when these decisions are strategic alternatives. in some instances, mathematical model is the only means available for evaluating and testing alternatives.  however, in order for this potential to be realized, models must be valid for the applicati...

the most common type of childhood-onset epilepsy syndrome is childhood absence epilepsy (cae) with well-defined electro clinical features but unknown pathological basis. the incidence of absence epilepsy is about 2 and 8 out of every 100 000 children up to the age of 16, and the prevalence is 2 and 10% of children with any form of epilepsy. children with cae suffer from high rate of pretreatmen...

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "Probabilistic representation in syllogistic reasoning: A theory to integrate mental models and heuristics" (M. Hattori, 2016) [1]. This article presents predicted data by three signature probabilistic models of syllogistic reasoning and model fitting results for each of a total of 12 experiments (N=404) in the lite...
