it is very important to recognize the areas with high potential risk of landslide in order to resist that. in a case study, thirty three landslides have been observed in safarood watershed. the purpose of this study is to recognize factors and zonation of potential areas for landslide. this paper covers specific factors including lithology, fault, height, slope, direction, rainfall, soil, veget...

In various statistical model, such as density estimation and estimation of regression curves or hazard rates, monotonicity constraints can arise naturally. A frequently encountered problem in nonparametric statistics is to estimate a monotone density function f on a compact interval. A known estimator for density function of f under the restriction that f is decreasing, is Grenander estimator, ...

Relative survival, a method for assessing prognostic factors for disease-specific mortality in unselected populations, is frequently used in population-based studies. However, most relative survival models assume that the effects of covariates on disease-specific mortality conform with the proportional hazards hypothesis, which may not hold in some long-term studies. To accommodate variation ov...

The number of failures plays an important factor in the study maintenance strategy a manufacturing system. In real situation, this is often affected by some uncertainties. Many uncertainties fall into possibilistic uncertainty, which are different from probabilistic uncertainty. This uncertainty commonly modeled applying fuzzy theoretical framework. paper aims to compute for system has Weibull ...
