one of the models that can be used to study the relationship between boolean random sets and explanatory variables is growth regression model which is defined by generalization of boolean model and permitting its grains distribution to be dependent on the values of explanatory variables. this model can be used in the study of behavior of boolean random sets when their coverage regions variation...

in the present study, air quality analyses for ozone (o3) were conducted in shiraz, a city in the south of iran. the measurements were taken from 2011 through 2012 in two different locations to prepare average data in the city. the average concentrations were calculated for every 24 hours, each month and each season. results showed that the highest concentration of ozone occurs generally in the...

we apply the two-sector production function developed by ram (1986) to estimate the threshold regression model for iran, concerning the effect of government size on economic growth. three government size indicators are used to find out the different threshold points. the results show a non-linear relationship of the armey curve in iran, in which the threshold effects corresponding to total gove...

new statistic based models provide a wide area of prediction equipments for different science areas. among these fields biology have just entered the contest of interdisciplinary sciences. drug discovery is a long and expensive process which could be decreased with theoretical approaches. in this study, 500 reported assayed anti cancer molecules were extracted from science direct articles, sket...

difference aspects of multinomial statistical modelings and its classifications has been studied so far. in these type of problems y is the qualitative random variable with t possible states which are considered as classifications. the goal is prediction of y based on a random vector x ? ir^m. many methods for analyzing these problems were considered. one of the modern and general method of cla...

the objective of this article is to analyze the data collected by the depart­ment of environmental health about the susceptibility of anopheles stephensi in the minab shahrestan to d.d.t. from 1957 to 1968, in order to: determine a mathematical model for the changes in l.d.50 by time and estimate the trend of l.d.50, for the future years. by plotting the changes in the resistance of the mosquit...

Species Distribution Modelling (SDM) is an important tool for conservation planning and resource management. Invasive species represent a good opportunity to evaluate SDMs predictive accuracy with independent data as their invasive range can expand quickly. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between presence of Leucanthemum vulgare Lam. and environmental v...

background: breast cancer is the most common cancer after lung cancer and the second cause of death. in this study we compared weibull and lognormal cure models with cox regression on the survival of breast cancer. study design: a cohort study. methods: the current study retrospective cohort study was conducted on 140 patients referred to ali ibn abitaleb hospital, rafsanjan southeastern iran f...

background: we designed an algorithmic model based on the logistic regression analysis and a non-algorithmic model based on the artificial neural network (ann). materials and methods: the ability of these models was compared together in clinical application to differentiate malignant from benign breast tumors in a study group of 161 patients' records. each patient’s record consisted of 6 s...
