In a mathematical approach to hypothesis tests, we start with a clearly defined set of hypotheses and choose the test with the best properties for those hypotheses. In practice, we often start with less precise hypotheses. For example, often a researcher wants to know which of two groups generally has the larger responses, and either a t-test or a Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney (WMW) test could be accep...

Increased emphasis on aircraft inspection to ensure aviation safety has resulted in the need for a better trained workforce of aircraft maintenance personnel. As almost 90% of inspection is visual in nature, it has led to the development of computer simulators to train human inspectors performing the inspection task. However, the lack of immersion and interaction has led to limited effectivenes...

and Applied Analysis 3 We know that T is pseudocontractive if and only if T satisfies the condition 󵄩󵄩󵄩Tx − Ty 󵄩󵄩󵄩 2 ≤ 󵄩󵄩󵄩x − y 󵄩󵄩󵄩 2 + 󵄩󵄩󵄩(I − T)x − (I − T)y 󵄩󵄩󵄩 2 (15) for all x, y ∈ C. Since u ∈ Fix(T), we have from (15) that ‖Tx − u‖ 2 ≤ ‖x − u‖ 2 + ‖x − Tx‖ 2 , (16) for all x ∈ C. By using (13) and (16), we obtain 󵄩󵄩󵄩Tyn − u 󵄩󵄩󵄩 2 ≤ 󵄩󵄩󵄩yn − u 󵄩󵄩󵄩 2 + 󵄩󵄩󵄩yn − Tyn 󵄩󵄩󵄩 2 = 󵄩󵄩󵄩(1 − γn)xn + γnT...
