The genus Relicinopsis is nested within Relicina (Parmeliaceae, Ascomycota).
(British Lichen Society, 2017)
Macro-morphological features traditionally used to segregate genera in Parmeliaceae have been shown to be highly plastic, placing limits on their taxonomic value. Here we aim to elucidate the evolutionary relationships of ...
Inference on poverty indicators for Ghana
(2018-09-14)
Poverty indicators are the fundamental statistics used to optimally determine the standards of living of people in any country. These are used for policy planing and analysis. Poverty indicators were estimated using ...
A SEMI-PARAMETRIC MULTIPLICATIVE BIAS REDUCTION DENSITY WITH A PARAMETRIC START
(Pushpa Publishing House, 2018)
In this study, a multiplicative semiparametric fourth order bias reduction density is proposed. The proposed density accommodates all parametric distributions and produces optimum results even in situations where the ...
Variance Estimation for Poverty Indicators via Linearization Technique
(2018-08-24)
In this study, an assessment of precision of poverty indicators is made with a view to improving its performance. A multiplicative bias reduction density function is used in estimating the poverty indicators and compared ...
Robust Variance Estimation by Linearization Techniques for Poverty Indicators
(Southern Africa Mathematical Sciences Association, 2018)
The need for a reliable and equitable means of measuring population disparity and providing guidelines on implementation of policy decisions has necessitated the search for a precise estimating scheme for poverty indicators. ...

(Journal of Human Resource & Leadership, 2018)
Recognizing excellent performance openly builds motivation within the entire organization. It is acknowledged that employee recognition has contagious effects. When an employee witnesses others being rewarded for good ...
Influence of fringe benefits on employee performance in large commercial banks in Nairobi city county in Kenya
(Journal of Strategic Management, 2018)
Fringe benefits have been recognized as a way that motivate employees to increase their work output above the expected, therefore increasing employee performance. Fringe benefits are types of non-wage compensation provided ...
Deriving Penalized Splines For Estimation Of Time Varying Effects In Survival Data
(International Journal of Scientific & Technology Research, 2014)
The major interests of survival analysis are either to compare the failure time distribution function or to assess the effects of covariate on survival via appropriate hazards regression models. Cox’s proportional hazards ...
