Nonlinear kernel regression models are often used in statistics and machine learning due to greater accuracy than linear models. Variable selection for kernel regression models is a challenge partly because, unlike the linear regression setting, there is no clear concept of an effect size for regression coefficients. In this paper, we propose a novel framework that provides an analog of the eff...

Based on secondary literature and IS ideologues’ own writings, this paper analyses IS’s claims of validity in their ca...

This paper presents a modular approach to motion control using a microconlroller-based stepper motor driver. As an application of the driver, an inexpensive and portable one-dimensional robot was built to automate an existing experimental setup for measurement of adsorption isotherms using the McBain-Bakr technique. Automatic recording of position versus time yields data for the sludy of adsorp...
