In the literature, numerous statistical analyses are used to quantify asymmetry in gait. This study tested the effect size (ES) statistic for quantifying asymmetry in nondisabled and pathological populations. The plantar pressure peaks on eight footprint locations of 27 nondisabled subjects and 18 patients with hemiparesis were bilaterally compared. Asymmetry quantifications were performed with...

We propose a new vector index for the statistical assessment of antihypertensive treatment duration and homogeneity from ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. We termed this approach for evaluating and comparing blood pressure coverage offered by antihypertensive drugs over 24 h as the reduction-duration-homogeneity index. The reduction-duration-homogeneity index is a three-component vector ind...

Index Terms—Fuzzy number, lambda-statistical limit inferior, lambda-statistical limit superior.

Body Mass Index (BMI), defined as the ratio of individual mass (in kilograms) to square associated height meters), is one most widely discussed and utilized risk factors in medicine public health, given increasing obesity worldwide its relation metabolic disease. Statistically, BMI a composite random variable, since human weight (converted mass) are themselves variables. Much effort over years ...

Shear strength is the essential engineering property of soil required to analyze and design foundations, retaining walls, bridges, embankment, related infrastructure. The laboratory equipment field instruments are not sufficient in developing countries obtain properties, especially properties. Thus, Geotechnical engineers usually endeavor develop statistical models that best fit a particular ar...
