In drying seaweeds, it is important to describe its behavior using semi-theoretical models. Predicting the best model for seaweed was commonly done by testing goodness of curve models calculating coefficient determination R2, reduced chi square X2, root means error (RMSE) and mean bias (MBE). However, essential rank before selection assessing performance index Φ relative deviation (MRD). It als...

A statistical study of fitting log-normal distributions to air sampling concentrations and random intakes is reported in this paper. An improved method on the approximation of a sum of log-normal distributions to a log-normal distribution is used to forecast bioassay results and their uncertainties. These methods can be used in the design and implementation of air control monitoring and bioassa...

This paper considers ways of modelling time dependent inspection problems where there is a possibility of false alarms. For this purpose, it is assumed that safeguards procedures are notified to the inspectee by the inspector and are prima facie plausible ones. This 'inspector-leadership principle' implies that under reasonable assumptions the inspectee's strategy is legal in the sense of compl...
