Landing impact and runway unevenness have proximate consequence on performance of landing gear system and conduce to discomfort of passengers and reduction of the pilot’s capability to control aircraft. Finally, vibrations caused by them result in structure fatigue. Fuzzy logic controller is used frequently in different applications because of simplicity in design and implementation. In the pre...

It has been well known that the suitable criteria for Space time trellis codes (STTC) designed over slow Nakagami fading channel for product of rank and number of receiver antennas ) are maximization of minimum rank and maximize the minimum product of nonzero eigenvalues for rank and determinant criteria. But for large product i.e. for ), the design of codes with minimum error probability and m...

The problem of minimum risk point estimation under squared-error loss function (SELF) for the parameter associated with the generalized life distributions, is considered. The failure of fixed sample size procedure is established. Sequential procedure using uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVUE) at both the stopping and estimation stages is developed and the second-order approxima...

Discriminative training techniques have been successfully developed for many pattern recognition applications. In speech recognition, discriminative training aims to minimize the metric of word error rate. However, in an information retrieval system, the best performance should be achieved by maximizing the average precision. In this paper, we construct the discriminative n-gram language model ...

The purpose of this study was to extend Glas and Vos’s (1998) Bayesian procedure to the 3PL IRT model by using the MCMC method. In the context of fixedlength mastery tests, the Bayesian decision-theoretic procedure was compared with two conventional procedures (conventionalProportion Correct and conventionalEAP) across different simulation conditions. Several simulation conditions were investig...
