Classical Statistical Distribution Involving Multivariable HFunction

Consumption Distribution in Iran: A Statistical Overview

This paper contains the main results concerning the evaluation of the consumption distribution of Iran in terms of levels, shape, inequality and social welfare for the years 1989 and 1994. The results show that the shape of consumption distribution in Iran is showed to the right and there is a large gap between the average level of consumption in rural and urban areas. Inequality in Iran is rel...

A New Modification in the Classical Laplace Distribution

‎Several modifications of the Laplace distribution have been introduced and applied in various fields up to this day‎. ‎In this paper‎,  ‎we introduce a modified symmetric version of the classical Laplace distribution‎.  ‎We provide a comprehensive theoretical description of this distribution‎. ‎In particular‎, ‎we derive the formulas for th...

Assessing statistical significance in multivariable genome wide association analysis

MOTIVATION Although Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) genotype a very large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), the data are often analyzed one SNP at a time. The low predictive power of single SNPs, coupled with the high significance threshold needed to correct for multiple testing, greatly decreases the power of GWAS. RESULTS We propose a procedure in which all the SNPs a...

Stalked protozoa identification by image analysis and multivariable statistical techniques.

Protozoa are considered good indicators of the treatment quality in activated sludge systems as they are sensitive to physical, chemical and operational processes. Therefore, it is possible to correlate the predominance of certain species or groups and several operational parameters of the plant. This work presents a semiautomatic image analysis procedure for the recognition of the stalked prot...
