This paper presents the analysis of a renewal input  finite buffer queue wherein the customers can decide either to  join the queue with a probability or balk. The service process is Markovian service process ($MSP$) governed  by an underlying $m$-state Markov chain. Employing the supplementary  variable and imbedded Markov chain techniques,   the steady-state system length distributions at pre...

Cartograms are used to visualize geographically distributed data by scaling the regions of a map (e.g., US states) such that their areas are proportional to some data associated with them (e.g., population). Thus the cartogram computation problem can be considered as a map deformation problem where the input is a planar polygonal map M and an assignment of some positive weight for each region. ...

The estimation of class prevalence, i.e., the fraction of a population that belongs to a certain class, is a very useful tool in data analytics and learning, and finds applications in many domains such as sentiment analysis, epidemiology, etc. For example, in sentiment analysis, the objective is often not to estimate whether a specific text conveys a positive or a negative sentiment, but rather...

conclusions the tmd, with a cut-off point of 65 mm, had superior diagnostic value compared with the hmdr and mallampati score. therefore, the tmd could be used in malay patients to predict the difficulty of larynx visualization during laryngoscopy. results difficulty in visualizing the larynx was found in 28 (10.1%) patients. the auc, sensitivity, and specificity for the three airway predictors...

driver drowsiness has been one of the main causes of on-road crashes which can lead to death, physical injuries and impose significant costs on the societies. the development of non-intrusive methods to be able to detect driver drowsiness in the early stages of drowsiness is great of importance. this is an educational review and its purpose is to provide recent achievements about non-intrusive ...

nima yooshij applied various techniques in order to describe diverse poetic subjects. this research deals with analysing the usage of these expressive techniques from two perspectives - poetic and structural. nima applied structural expressive techniques more often than poetic expressive techniques in order to describe various poetic subjects. these techniques include adjectives, adverbs, adjec...
