Three methods in common use for finding confidence regions for the parameters of a nonlinear regression model are studied. These are the lack of fit method, the linearization method, and the maximum likelihood method. The objective is to determine which of the three methods is the preferred choice in applications. The conclusion is that the linearization method has the best structural character...

OBJECTIVE To determine the association of sarcopenia with postoperative morbidity and mortality after colorectal surgery. BACKGROUND Functional compromise in elderly colorectal surgical patients is considered as a significant factor of impaired postoperative recovery. Therefore, the predictive value of preoperative functional compromise assessment was investigated. Sarcopenia is a hallmark of...

This paper proposes two low complexity methods in time domain for limiting Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems by employing cyclically shifted sequences with different delay and phase factors. Since the proposed method operates in time domain it requires only two Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) operations to achieve significant PAPR reduc...
