Sometimes the relationship between dependent and explanatory variable(s) known as profile is monitored. Simple linear profiles among the other types of profiles have been more considered due to their applications especially in calibration. There are some studies on the monitoring them when the observations within each profile are autocorrelated. On the other hand, estimating the change point le...

Profilemonitoring is an approach in quality control best usedwhere the process data follow a profile (or curve). Themajority of previous studies in profile monitoring focused on the parametric modeling of either linear or nonlinear profiles, with both fixed and random-effects, under the assumption of correctmodel specification. Ourwork considers those cases where the parametricmodel for the fam...

In many quality control applications, use of a single (or several distinct) quality characteristic(s) is insufficient to characterize the quality of a produced item. In an increasing number of cases, a response curve (profile), is required. Such profiles can frequently be modeled using linear or nonlinear regression models. In recent research others have developed multivariate T 2 control chart...

OBJECTIVES People with dementia are susceptible to adverse effects of medicines. However, they are not always closely monitored. We explored (1) feasibility and (2) clinical impact of nurse-led medication monitoring. DESIGN Feasibility "before-and-after" intervention study. SETTING Three care homes in Wales. PARTICIPANTS Eleven service users diagnosed with dementia, taking at least one an...

background dyslipidemia is associated with cardiovascular morbidities and mortality. currently, fasting lipid profile determination is used to monitor treatment response. recently, postprandial lipemia is of increasing interest because of its atherogenic and thrombogenic potential and also was found to be more predictive for cardiovascular diseases. objectives to demonstrate postprandial lipemi...

This study examined the metacognitive aspects of face-name learning with the goal of providing a comprehensive profile of monitoring performance during this task. Four types of monitoring judgments were solicited during encoding and retrieval of novel face-name associations. Across all of the monitoring judgments, relative accuracy was significantly above chance for face and name targets. Furth...

The INSHORE system (INtegrated System for High Operational REsolution in shore monitoring) is a land-base survey system designed and developed for the specific task of monitoring the evolution in time of sandy shores. This system was developed with two main objectives: (1) to produce highly accurate 3D coordinates of surface points (in the order of 0.02 to 0.03 m); and (2) to be extremely effic...

A temperature profile 2400 m along the off-shore active caldera of Campi Flegrei (Gulf of Pozzuoli) was obtained by the installation of a permanent fiber-optic monitoring system within the framework of the Innovative Monitoring for Coastal and Marine Environment (MON.I.C.A) project. The system consists of a submerged, reinforced, multi-fiber cable containing six single-mode telecom grade optica...
