abstract the aim of this study was threefold: (1) to investigate the relationship between knowledge of semantic prosody and efl learners general language proficiency; (2) to examine the relationship between qualitative as well as quantitative knowledge of words, and (3) to compare the performance of efl learner on receptive and productive measures of semantic prosody. the study is based on a...

chapters 1 and 2 establish the basic theory of amenability of topological groups and amenability of banach algebras. also we prove that. if g is a topological group, then r (wluc (g)) (resp. r (luc (g))) if and only if there exists a mean m on wluc (g) (resp. luc (g)) such that for every wluc (g) (resp. every luc (g)) and every element d of a dense subset d od g, m (r)m (f) holds. chapter 3 inv...

in this thesis a calibration transfer method is used to achieve bilinearity for augmented first order kinetic data. first, the proposed method is investigated using simulated data and next the concept is applied to experimental data. the experimental data consists of spectroscopic monitoring of the first order degradation reaction of carbaryl. this component is used for control of pests in frui...

One of the applications of Non-Parametric methods is determination of genotypes rank in different environments, which is also used as a measuring stability. A stable genotype shows similar ranks across different environments and has minimum rank variance in different environments. Non-Parametric Stability Statistics require no statistical assumptions about the distribution of the phenotypic val...

This article basically tries to examine the relationship between efficiency and risk in Iranian banking system. The scholars here simply employ two approaches, i.e. parametric (economic-based) approach, and non-parametric (mathematical optimization-based) approach, to assess the efficiency, rank the banks, select the optimal model and at last, identify the impact of credit, operational and liqu...

Value at risk (VaR) is one of the most important risk measures for computing risk which is entered in financial framework in past two decades. In general there are three approaches including parametric, nonparametric and semi-parametric is used for estimating of VaR. this paper present a new method that is named window simulation which is classified in nonparametric approach. Processing of VaR ...
