This study aimed at investigating the prevalence and factors associated with living alone among older persons in Uganda. A secondary analysis of the 2010 Uganda National Household Survey (UNHS) data was conducted. A complementary log-log regression model was used to estimate the association between living alone and demographic, socio-economic and health factors. Nearly one out of ten (9%) older...

The Robustness of Facial Expression Recognition (FER) is based on information contained in color facial images. The Tensor Perceptual Color Framework (TPCF) enables multilinear image analysis in different color spaces. This demonstrates that the color components provide additional information for robust FER. By using this framework color components RGB, YCbCr, CIELab or CIELuv space of color im...

A first order affine scaling method and two mth order affine scaling methods for solving monotone linear complementarity problems (LCP) are presented. All three methods produce iterates in a wide neighborhood of the central path. The first order method has O(nL2(lognL2)(log lognL2)) iteration complexity. If the LCP admits a strict complementary solution then both the duality gap and the iterati...

Researchers have recently shown that penalized models perform well when applied to high-throughput genomic data. Previous researchers introduced the generalized monotone incremental forward stagewise (GMIFS) method for fitting overparameterized logistic regression models. The GMIFS method was subsequently extended by others for fitting several different logit link ordinal response models to hig...

The practice of guiding a search engine based on query logs observed from the engine's user population provides large volumes of data but potentially also sacrifices the privacy of the user. In this paper, we ask the following question: Is it possible, given rich instrumented data from a panel and usability study data, to observe complete information without routinely analyzing query logs? What...
