Dimension reduction is helpful and often necessary in exploring nonlinear or nonparametric regression structures with a large number of predictors. We consider using the canonical variables from the design space whose correlations with a spline basis in the response space are significant. The method can be viewed as a variant of sliced inverse regression (SIR) with simple slicing replaced by Bs...

objectives: the most common problem that delinquent children and juveniles deal with at every moment is the lack of sufficient control over their aggression. accordingly, the aim of this study is to investigate the effects of mental rehabilitation group therapy based on acceptance and commitment on decreasing aggression in juvenile delinquents. methods: this study employed a quasi-experimental ...

We introduce a dimension reduction technique based on extreme observations. The classical assumption of a linear model for the distribution of a random vector is replaced by the weaker assumption of a fairly general model for the copula. We assume an elliptical copula to describe the extreme dependence structure, which preserves a ’correlation-like’ structure in the extremes. Based on the tail ...

abstract in zoroastrian law, there are several indications that denote to the temporary marriage as a legal institution and this can be compared to one law in imami jurisprudence. sunni and imami jurists differ on the continued legitimacy of the temporary marriage which the former believes it to be continued. temporary marriage is legitimate in the opinion of imami jurists and it has certain co...

It is well-known that the harsh operational conditions of turbine blades lead to a gradual change in the microstructure of underlying Ni-based superalloy of blades. According to this, a rejuvenation process should be conducted on turbine blades superalloys to recover their microstructures. The first and main step of rejuvenation process is the determination of appropriate solution condition in ...

physiologically thermal comfort condition is a limit of temperature and humidity. ,in which thermal control mechanism of human body is in its least activity . thermal comfort conditions not only have impact on sizes of heating and cooling equipment ,but also affects the thickness of insulation, and .energy, consumption of buildings. it is necessary to define thermal comfort condition for differ...

Hyperspectral imaging has attracted researchers’ interests in recent years. Because of its high dimensionality and complexity, the reduction of dimension of hyperspectral data sets has become crucial in processing and categorizing the data. In this project, I will apply two methods of dimension reduction: laplacian eigenmaps and randomized principal component analysis in order to reduce the dim...
