This research was conducted to study and classify the physico-chemicalproperties of soil, yield components of wheat and to determine the significance ofthese parameters on the grain yield formation. In this research, seven statisticalmethods consisting of simple correlation analysis (SCA), multiple linear regression(MLR), stepwise regression (SR), factor analysis (FA), principal componentanalys...

Tacrolimus has a narrow therapeutic window and considerable variability in clinical use. Our goal was to compare the performance of multiple linear regression (MLR) and eight machine learning techniques in pharmacogenetic algorithm-based prediction of tacrolimus stable dose (TSD) in a large Chinese cohort. A total of 1,045 renal transplant patients were recruited, 80% of which were randomly sel...

In this paper, we present a statistical method based on GMM modeling to map the acoustic speech spectral features to visual features of Cued Speech in the regression criterion of Minimum Mean-Square Error (MMSE) in a low signal level which is innovative and different with the classic text-to-visual approach. Two different training methods for GMM, namely Expecting-Maximization (EM) approach and...

This paper presents a new method. It is a combination of two algorithms that have never been presented before. The research proposes the combination of the Hodrick-Prescott (HP) filters with Multiple linear regression method (MLR). The case study is the electricity demand of Thailand. The first stage, we separate the signal from the original demand signal to a trend and detail components. After...

In this study, artificial neural networks (ANNs) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) were used to estimate shear stress distribution in streams. The methods were applied to the 145 field data gauged from four different sites on the Sarimsakli and Sosun streams in Turkey. The accuracy of the applied models was compared with the multiple-linear regression (MLR). The results showed t...

A linear quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) model is presented for modeling and predicting induction of apoptosis by 4-aryl-4H-chromenes. The model was produced by using the multiple linear regression (MLR) technique on a database that consists of 43 recently discovered 4-aryl-4H-chromenes. Among the 61 different physicochemical, topological, and structural descriptors that wer...

Models for the prediction of conductance in nonbrine water samples through the measurement of ionic concentrations and other parameters are compared. Such predictions are often used for quality assurance purposes by comparing them with actual measurements to determine whether gross analysis errors have been made. A currently recommended method for making such predictions is a semiempirical rela...

Quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) models were developed to predict for CCR5 binding affinity of substituted 1-(3, 3-diphenylpropyl)-piperidinyl amides and ureas using multiple linear regression (MLR) and artificial neural network (ANN) techniques. A model with four descriptors, including Hydrogen-bonding donors HBD(R7), the partition coefficient between n-octanol and water log...

Quantitative structure-retention relationships (QSRRs) are used to correlate paper chromatographic retention factors of disperse dyes with theoretical molecular descriptors. A data set of 23 compounds with known RF values was used. The genetic algorithm-multiple linear regression analysis (GA-MLR) with three selected theoretical descriptors was obtained. The stability and predictability of the ...

A study using 51 wheat, 56 barley and 34 oat grain samples was conducted to investigate the feasibility of predicting the apparent metabolizable energy (AME) value of these cereals for poultry. Stepwise regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship of AME with starch, ether extract (EE), crude fiber (CF), soluble sugar (SS), ash and crude protein (CP) (for wheat and barley gra...
