Gmdh-methodology And Implementation In C (With Cd-rom)

Author: Godfrey C Onwubolu
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 1783266848
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 304

Book Description
Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) is a typical inductive modeling method built on the principles of self-organization. Since its introduction, inductive modeling has been developed and applied to complex systems in areas like prediction, modeling, clusterization, system identification, as well as data mining and knowledge extraction technologies, to several fields including social science, science, engineering, and medicine.This book makes error-free codes available to end-users so that these codes can be used to understand the implementation of GMDH, and then create opportunities to further develop the variants of GMDH algorithms. C-language has been chosen because it is a basic language commonly taught in the first year in computer programming courses in most universities and colleges, and the compiled versions could be used for more meaningful practical applications where security is necessary.

The Gini Methodology

Author: Shlomo Yitzhaki
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461447208
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 549

Book Description
Gini's mean difference (GMD) was first introduced by Corrado Gini in 1912 as an alternative measure of variability. GMD and the parameters which are derived from it (such as the Gini coefficient or the concentration ratio) have been in use in the area of income distribution for almost a century. In practice, the use of GMD as a measure of variability is justified whenever the investigator is not ready to impose, without questioning, the convenient world of normality. This makes the GMD of critical importance in the complex research of statisticians, economists, econometricians, and policy makers. This book focuses on imitating analyses that are based on variance by replacing variance with the GMD and its variants. In this way, the text showcases how almost everything that can be done with the variance as a measure of variability, can be replicated by using Gini. Beyond this, there are marked benefits to utilizing Gini as opposed to other methods. One of the advantages of using Gini methodology is that it provides a unified system that enables the user to learn about various aspects of the underlying distribution. It also provides a systematic method and a unified terminology. Using Gini methodology can reduce the risk of imposing assumptions that are not supported by the data on the model. With these benefits in mind the text uses the covariance-based approach, though applications to other approaches are mentioned as well.

Book Description
This edited collection commemorates the career of Dr. S. Lynne Stokes by highlighting recent advances in her areas of research interest, emphasizing practical applications and future directions. It serves as a collective effort of leading statistical scientists who work at the cutting edge in statistical sampling. S. Lynne Stokes is Professor of Statistical Science and Director of the Data Science Institute at Southern Methodist University, and Senior Fellow at the National Institute of Statistical Sciences. She has enjoyed a distinguished research career, making fundamental contributions to a variety of fields in statistical sampling. Reflecting on Professor Stokes' main areas of research, this volume is structured into three main parts: I. ranked-set sampling, judgment post-stratified sampling, and capture-recapture methods II. nonsampling errors in statistical sampling III. educational and behavioral statistics. This collection will be of interest to researchers, advanced students, and professionals in the public and private sectors who would like to learn more about latest advancements in statistical sampling, particularly those who work in educational and behavioral statistics.

Sample Surveys: Design, Methods and Applications

Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080932215
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 723

Book Description
This new handbook contains the most comprehensive account of sample surveys theory and practice to date. It is a second volume on sample surveys, with the goal of updating and extending the sampling volume published as volume 6 of the Handbook of Statistics in 1988. The present handbook is divided into two volumes (29A and 29B), with a total of 41 chapters, covering current developments in almost every aspect of sample surveys, with references to important contributions and available software. It can serve as a self contained guide to researchers and practitioners, with appropriate balance between theory and real life applications. Each of the two volumes is divided into three parts, with each part preceded by an introduction, summarizing the main developments in the areas covered in that part. Volume 29A deals with methods of sample selection and data processing, with the later including editing and imputation, handling of outliers and measurement errors, and methods of disclosure control. The volume contains also a large variety of applications in specialized areas such as household and business surveys, marketing research, opinion polls and censuses. Volume 29B is concerned with inference, distinguishing between design-based and model-based methods and focusing on specific problems such as small area estimation, analysis of longitudinal data, categorical data analysis and inference on distribution functions. The volume contains also chapters dealing with case-control studies, asymptotic properties of estimators and decision theoretic aspects. - Comprehensive account of recent developments in sample survey theory and practice - Discusses a wide variety of diverse applications - Comprehensive bibliography

Author: Marc Kéry
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128014865
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 810

Book Description
Applied Hierarchical Modeling in Ecology: Distribution, Abundance, Species Richness offers a new synthesis of the state-of-the-art of hierarchical models for plant and animal distribution, abundance, and community characteristics such as species richness using data collected in metapopulation designs. These types of data are extremely widespread in ecology and its applications in such areas as biodiversity monitoring and fisheries and wildlife management. This first volume explains static models/procedures in the context of hierarchical models that collectively represent a unified approach to ecological research, taking the reader from design, through data collection, and into analyses using a very powerful class of models. Applied Hierarchical Modeling in Ecology, Volume 1 serves as an indispensable manual for practicing field biologists, and as a graduate-level text for students in ecology, conservation biology, fisheries/wildlife management, and related fields. - Provides a synthesis of important classes of models about distribution, abundance, and species richness while accommodating imperfect detection - Presents models and methods for identifying unmarked individuals and species - Written in a step-by-step approach accessible to non-statisticians and provides fully worked examples that serve as a template for readers' analyses - Includes companion website containing data sets, code, solutions to exercises, and further information
