Currently, there is an important debate about the relative merits of models with discrete and continuous representations of consumer heterogeneity. A recent JMR study (Andrews, Ansari, and Currim 2002, AAC hereafter) compared metric conjoint analysis models with discrete and continuous representations of heterogeneity, finding no differences between the two models with respect to parameter reco...

The electronically conducting polymers (ECPs), such as polypyrrole (PPy), polythiophene (PT) and polyaniline (PANI) are known to possess unusually high electrical conductivity in the doped state. Due to this, these materials have been of great interests for chemists as well as physicists since their electrical properties were reported (Diaz et al., 1979). The ECP films behave like a redox polym...

Since the year 2000, various computational intelligence techniques have been developed for analyzing sentiments of users in field natural language processing (NLP). To date, majority as deployed across fields, including social sciences (Ansari et al., 2020; Nikolovska & Ekblom, Somasundaran Wiebe, 2010) and market research (Al-Otaibi 2018; Feldman 2011), focused largely on detecting subjectivit...

The nuclear medium effects are studied in the $\nu_\tau/\bar\nu_\tau$ interactions from nuclei deep inelastic scattering (DIS) region and applied to $^{40}Ar$ nucleus obtain cross sections energy of proposed DUNE experiment. free nucleon structure functions ($F_{iN}(x,Q^2);~(i=1-5)$) have been calculated at next-to-leading order (NLO) using Martin-Motylinski-Harland Lang-Thorne 2014 as well Coo...

A reciprocal relationship informing both researchandpractice isoneof theprimarygoals in theemerging field of Mind, Brain, and Education (MBE), yet the field has little documentation and analysis of such collaborations. In this article, we present case studies of three research–practice partnerships taking place between scientists and educators. By comparing and contrasting these three partnersh...

Background: Awareness about the variable vascular anatomy of superior mesenteric artery is imperative for appropriate clinical management. Present study not only augments anatomical literature pertaining to mesenteric vasculature but also adds to the clinical acumen of medical practitioners in their clinical endeavors. Case summary: The present study reports the occurrence of anomalous branch, ...

We revisit the topic of self-organized criticality (SOC) in simple statistical graph models, with purpose capturing essential processes leading to emergence macroscopic spacetime from microscopic dynamics loop quantum gravity (LQG). performed a large set simulations based on extensions frozen trivalent spin network (TSN) model explored previously by Ansari and Smolin. Their mimicked sandpile ap...

one of the subjects about the “la zarar” rule that always had been controversial is survey for positive aspect of it. not only opponents but also researchers that sought to answer the objections of the positive aspect of the rule enter the discussion on the assumption that the evidence of the “la zarar, rule is the la zarar hadith, in story of ansari man and samorah-ibn jondab discored. this as...
