We study the notions of positive cone, characteristic and C-characteristic in (Krasner) hyperfields. demonstrate how these interact order to produce interesting results theory For instance, we provide a criterion for deciding whether certain hyperfields cannot be obtained via Krasner’s quotient construction. prove that any integer (larger than 1) can realized as some infinite hyperfield an anal...

In this paper, absorbing Markov chain models are developed to determine the optimum process mean levels for both a single-stage and a serial two-stage production system in which items are inspected for conformity with their specification limits. When the value of the quality characteristic of an item falls below a lower limit, the item is scrapped. If it falls above an upper limit, the item is ...

present experiment was carried out to check the effect of different concentrations of sucrose (2, 4, 6%), ga 3 (25, 50, 75 ppm) and combination of sucrose and cuso4 (2% + 200, 4% + 300, 6% + 400 ppm), sucrose and ga 3 (2% + 25 ppm), (4%+50 ppm), (6%+75 ppm) on keeping quality and vase life of carnation cv. ‘eskimo’. some postharvest characteristics such as vase life, total soluble solids (tss),...

Abstract. The choice of natural image prior decides the quality of restored image. Recently successful algorithms exploit heavy-tailed gradient distribution as image prior to restore latent image with piecewise smooth regions. However, these prior assumed also remove the mid-frequency component such as textural details regions while they preserve sharp edges. That because gradient profile in fr...

Set of Software Quality Static Analyzers (SSQSA) is a set of software tools for static analysis that is incorporated in the framework developed to target the common aim – consistent software quality analysis. The main characteristic of all integrated tools is the independency of the input computer language. Language independency is achieved by enriched Concrete Syntax Tree (eCST) that is used a...

The authors explored the validity of two perspectives as to how managers evaluate subordinates who resist downward influence attempts: a uniformly dysfunctional perspective (i.e., managers regard all manifestations of resistance as indicators of ineffective influence and rate subordinates unfavorably when they resist) and a multifunctional perspective (i.e., managers regard some manifestations ...

This paper deals with construction of confidence intervals for process capability index using bootstrap method (proposed by Chen and Pearn in Qual Reliab Eng Int 13(6):355–360, 1997) by applying simulation technique. It is assumed that the quality characteristic follows type-II generalized log-logistic distribution introduced by Rosaiah et al. in Int J Agric Stat Sci 4(2):283–292, (2008). Discu...

Most previous studies have only addressed a single-response problem. However, more than one correlated response frequently occurs in a manufacturing product. The multi-response problem has received limited attention. In the second part of this project, an approach based on the clustering analysis (CA) is studied to the optimization of the multi-response problem. In CA, the observations can be c...

Nowadays, most of products are the results of different dependent process steps. Due to the cascade property in most of these processes, using the traditional control charts for monitoring these processes is not suitable. To solve this problem, Cause selecting Charts (CSCs) are developed to monitor multistage processes. These control charts have usually been developed when quality characteristi...
