Bias Reduction Technique for Estimating Finite Population Distribution Function under Simple Random Sampling without Replacement.
(International Journal of Statistics and Applications, 2018)
The problem of nonparametric estimation of finite population distribution function using multiplicative bias correction technique is considered in this paper. A robust estimator of the finite population distribution function ...
Nonparametric estimation of distribution function for stratified populations
(International Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2018)
Nonparametric estimation of population parameters for finite populations has been used with great success for
data that fit the independent and identically distributed framework. However, most of these approaches do not ...
Photo-Thermal Induced Optical Scattering Modulation Sensor for Malaria Diagnosis
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2018-09)
Malaria is one of the leading killer diseases in sub-Saharan Africa. Although the disease is curable, early and accurate diagnosis is key to effective therapy. Existing malaria diagnostic techniques have low detection ...
A Simple Stochastic Stomach Cancer Model with Application
(Science Publishing Group, 2018-04)
Survival analysis majors mainly on estimation of time taken before an event of interest takes place. Time taken
before an event of interest takes place is a random process that takes shape overtime. Stochastic processes ...
Chloride Ingress in Chemically Activated Calcined Clay-Based Cement
(Elsevier, 2018)
Chloride-laden environments pose serious durability concerns in cement based materials. This paper presents the findings of chloride ingress in chemically activated calcined Clay-Ordinary Portland Cement blended mortars. ...
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. ...
Influence of recognition schemes on employee performance in large commercial banks in Nairobi city county in Kenya.
(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 ...
