This study examines the efficiency of EPI cluster sampling in assessing the prevalence of diarrhoea and dysentery. A computer was used to simulate fieldwork carried out by a survey taker. The bias and variance of prevalence estimates obtained using EPI cluster sampling were compared with those obtained using simple random sampling and cluster (stratified random) sampling. Efficiency ratios, cal...

The purpose of this paper is to find the estimate of the parameters of k and g   distribution for ranked set sample by numerically maximizing the likelihood function. The estimates named as numerical maximum likelihood estimate, and corresponding mean square error and relative efficiency compared to simple random sampling are computed using a computer simulation. Ranked set sampling is seen t...

This study aims to examine the factors that influence individual interest in use of financial technology. uses Theory Planned Behavior (TPB) by examining several according theory taken. In this study, only 6 were filtered from studies, reason being it refers previous research which generally (TPB). Research data obtained results online questionnaire collection. The sampling technique used proba...

When conducting simulation for evaluating complex system reliability or availability, method of random sampling is applied to simulate fault occasion of complex system. Current research of fault sampling generally assumes maintenance activity restores systems to “good-as-new” and “bad-as-old” without considering “partly good” situation. However, system usually keeps its function through imperfe...

the purpose of this study was to compare symptoms of ptsd among war affected people and employees in the fire station. totally, 60 people affected by war and 60 fire workers were selected using simple random sampling. by completing pcl inventory, samples of ptsd were characterized. data was analysed through spss software by independent t-test. as the results showed, severity of ptsd symptoms am...

As a widely used method in metabolic network studies, Monte‐Carlo sampling in the steady state flux space is known for its flexibility and convenience of carrying out different purposes, simply by alternating constraints or objective functions, or appending post processes. Recently the concept of a non‐linear constraint based on the second thermodynamic law, known as " Loop Law " , is challengi...

<p><em>The purpose of this study was to determine the factors that support success Muslim women in running a business seen from dimensions entrepreneurial orientation. Respondents were 105 SMEs who run businesses Kudus Regency. The sampling technique uses Simple Random Sampling with Convenience method. data analysis Structural Equation Modeling help AMOS 25.0. results indicate there...

Sequential sample selection methods are distinguished from conventional methods in the manner in which random numbers are used to determine the sample. Conventionally, a sample of size n is selected from a sampling frame of N sampling units by selecting n random numbers and mapping then into n of the labels in the sampling frame. Sequential methods require each sampling unit in the sampling fra...

This paper presents a stochastic iteration algorithm solving the global illumination problem, where the random sampling is governed by classical importance sampling and also by the Metropolis method. Point pairs where radiance transfer takes place are obtained with random ray shooting. Ray shooting can mimic the source radiance and the geometric factor, but not the receiving capability of the t...
