Large Sample Comparison of Parameter Estimates in Gamma Raindrop Distributions
Raindrop size distributions have been characterized through the gamma family. Over the years, quite a few estimates of these gamma parameters have been proposed. The natural question for the practitioner, then, is what estimation procedure should be used.

We give an asymptotic development of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), or any other estimator defined implicitly, in a way which involves the limiting behavior of the score and its higher-order derivatives. This development, which is explicitly computable, gives some insights about the non-asymptotic behavior of the renormalized MLE and its ...

An analytical method for q−fractional dynamical equations on time scales
In this paper, we introduce the delta q−Laplace transform on a time scale and investigate some of its properties. We discuss some important properties of fractional delta q−calculus. Then, based on these properties and the q−Laplace transform, we propose

RT-LAMP assay for rapid detection of the R203M mutation in SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant
The highly infectious Delta variant strain of SARS-CoV-2 remains globally dominant and undermines COVID-19 vaccines. Rapid detection of the Delta variant is crucial for the identification and quarantine of infected individuals. In this study, our aim was

An Entropy-Based Contagion Index and Its Sampling Properties for Landscape Analysis
Studies of spatial patterns of landscapes are useful to quantify human impact, predict wildlife effects, or describe various landscape features. A robust landscape index should quantify two components of landscape diversity: composition and configuration.
