Although logistic regression models are widely used in multivariable analyses with dichotomous outcomes, many of their features, which can be very helpful tools in better understanding the data, are often underutilized. In addition to the widely used and reported odds ratios and p-values, PROC LOGISTIC generates a plethora of statistics from which one can gain further insight, make stronger ana...

correct estimation of suspended sediment transported by a river is an important practice in water structure design, environmental problems and water quality issues. conventionally, sediment rating curve used for suspended sediment estimation in rivers. in this method discharge and sediment discharge or concentration related using regression relation that generally is exponential model. respect ...

MOTIVATION Multiple transcription factors coordinately control transcriptional regulation of genes in eukaryotes. Although many computational methods consider the identification of individual transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs), very few focus on the interactions between these sites. We consider finding TFBSs and their context specific interactions using microarray gene expression data. ...

Interactions of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are assumed to be responsible for complex diseases such as sporadic breast cancer. Important goals of studies concerned with such genetic data are thus to identify combinations of SNPs that lead to a higher risk of developing a disease and to measure the importance of these interactions. There are many approaches based on classification met...

Abstract In this paper potential dam sites were identified using remote sensing and GIS. Determinant factors viz., precipitation, slope, flow accumulation, soil texture, land use, geology analyzed in the GIS domain. Each factor was reclassified assigned suitable fuzzy membership values depending on their influence site potential. All fuzzified layers overlaid "Fuzzy Overlay" tool platform. Init...

In 2 experiments we investigated trance logic, or the tolerance of logical incongruity, in age regression and hallucination. Experiment 1 tested 21 hypnotizable and 19 unhypnotizable subjects in an application of the real-simulating model of hypnosis. Experiment 2 tested 26 high and 19 low imagery ability subjects in an adaptation of the model to the imagination context. Subjects' experiences w...

Objectives: Genetic polymorphism interactions are among the important factors in affliction with complex diseases like Alzheimer’s disease. The important goal of genetic association studies is to identify a combination of polymorphisms and measure their importance in increasing the risk of occurrence of such diseases. In this study, feature selection approach of logic regression was used to ide...
