Listener bias is a well-documented phenomenon in linguistics and sociolinguistics research. Listeners have demonstrated bias in assigning personality traits such as intelligence, selfconfidence and likeability to speakers from different language backgrounds (Delamere, 1996). A study by Derwing and Munro (1997), demonstrated that intelligibility scores assigned to nonnative speech were better wh...

The goodness-of-fit problem has recently attracted attention from the particle physics community. In modern particle experiments, one often performs an unbinned likelihood fit to data. The experimenter then needs to estimate how accurately the fit function approximates the observed distribution. A number of methods have been used to solve this problem in the past [1], and a number of methods ha...

Flood hydrograph simulation is affected by uncertainty in Rainfall – Runoff )RR( parameters. Uncertainty of RR parameters in Gharasoo catchment, part of the great Karkheh river basin, is evaluated by Monte–Carlo (MC) approach. A conceptual-distributed model, called ModClark, was used for basin simulation, in which the basin’s hydrograph was determined using the superposition of runoff generated...
