the objective of this article is to analyze the data collected by the depart­ment of environmental health about the susceptibility of anopheles stephensi in the minab shahrestan to d.d.t. from 1957 to 1968, in order to: determine a mathematical model for the changes in l.d.50 by time and estimate the trend of l.d.50, for the future years. by plotting the changes in the resistance of the mosquit...

introduction:expensive chemical tests are usuallyapplied to control the efficiency of wastewater treatment plants. however, the cost of measuring these parameters is one of the challenges of the wastewater treatment plants. using statistical methods has been evaluated for possibility of calculating expensive parameters by measuring the inexpensive parameters in this study. methods:initial sampl...

introduction: estimation of stature is one of the most important fields in forensic medicine. also it is of particular interest to anthropologists and anatomist. our aim was to investigate the relationship between stature and the length of lower limb and foot to derive a regression formula for estimating the stature. methods: three anthropometric measurements stature, lower limb length (lll) an...

Summary We present a new method for causal discovery in linear structural equation models. propose simple technique based on statistical testing models that can distinguish between ancestors and non-ancestors of any given variable. Naturally, this approach then be extended to estimating the order among all variables. provide explicit error control false discovery, at least asymptotically. This ...

climate change due to increasing the level of greenhouse gases including co2 is the main environmental issue of the world in the new century. one of the effective way for reducing atmospheric co2 is carbon sequestration by plants and soils. a vast area of iran has desert condition with special adapted plant species in which can be devoted for carbon sequestration. hammada salicornica as a shrub...

the objective of this study was to determine the relationship between body weight (bw) and heart girth (hg) in sardi and timahdite sheep in order to develop a prediction equation of bw from hg. the data used for this study included 476 records on bw and hg (227 in sardi and 249 in timahdite) collected on males and females of different ages in 33 private farms. the bw and the hg averaged 34.8 ± ...

This work gives an overview of innovative class methods for the analysis spatial and functional data observed over complicated two-dimensional domains. is based on regression with regularising terms involving partial differential equations. The associated estimation problems are solved resorting to advanced numerical techniques. synergical interplay approaches from statistics, applied mathemati...
