On the use of regression models to predict tea crop yield responses to climate change: a case of Nandi east, sub-county of Nandi county, Kenya
(MDPI, 2017-07-17)
Tea is a major cash crop in Kenya. Predicting the potential effects of climate change on tea crops prompts the use of statistical models to measure how the crop responds to climate variables. The statistical model was ...
On derivation of the probability of occurrence of an epidemic with application to HIV/AIDS spread given tuberculosis co-infections in the presence of treatment
(Science Publishing Group, 2017-08-22)
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (TB) infections are two major world’s public health problems especially in developing countries. Worldwide, 13% of TB cases are estimated to be co-infected ...
Towards a cost effective method for estimating disease infection rates in plants
(All Scientific Journals : International Journal of Advanced Scientific Research, 2017-07-01)
Pool-testing involves investigating more than one unit with a single test for cost effectiveness. Rather than testing an individual plant for the presence of a disease, plants are put into groups of more than one unit and ...
Estimating Non-Smooth Functional Using Non-Parametric Procedure in the Hilbert Sample Space
(International Journal of Engineering & Mathematical Sciences., 2017-06-01)
One of the problems in statistical inference is that of estimating functional. A functional is a mathematical relation that maps two or more functions in one number. They are either smooth or non-smooth. The smoothness ...
