A possible observational evidence for $\theta^{-2}$ angular distribution of opening half-angle of GRB jets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We propose a method to estimate the pseudo jet opening half-angle of GRBs using the spectral peak energy ($\Ep$)--peak luminosity relation (so called Yonetoku relation) as well as the $\Ep$--collimation-corrected $\gamma$-ray energy relation (so called ...

Drivers of Technical Efficiency in Cassava Processing in Nigeria: Implications for a Commercializing Food Sector

open access: yesTropicultura, 2019
Most agriculture policies in Nigeria are aimed at integrating the rural poor into market economy. In the last decade, Nigeria witnessed significant private and public injection of capital into the promotion of small-medium scale cassava processing.

On the Mixture of Normal and Half-Normal Distributions

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2022
In this research, we studied the mixture of normal and half-normal distributions and introduced some properties for this mixture. In particular, we derived the mean, median, and mode of the mixture of normal and half-normal distributions. We also focused on exploring the Bayesian estimation of parameters of the mixture of normal and half-normal ...

On the half-Cauchy prior for a global scale parameter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper argues that the half-Cauchy distribution should replace the inverse-Gamma distribution as a default prior for a top-level scale parameter in Bayesian hierarchical models, at least for cases where a proper prior is necessary.

A method for calculating BMI z-scores and percentiles above the 95th percentile of the CDC growth charts

open access: yesAnnals of Human Biology, 2020
Background The 2000 CDC growth charts are based on national data collected between 1963 and 1994 and include a set of selected percentiles between the 3rd and 97th and LMS parameters that can be used to obtain other percentiles and associated z-scores ...

A two dimensional fibre reinforced micropolar thermoelastic problem for a half-space subjected to mechanical force [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2015
The purpose of this paper is to study the two dimensional deformation of fibre reinforced micropolar thermoelastic medium in the context of Green-Lindsay theory of thermoelasticity. A mechanical force is applied along the interface of fluid half

The Log-Beta Generalized Half-Normal Regression Model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2013
We introduce a log-linear regression model based on the beta generalized half-normal distribution (Pescim et al., 2010).We formulate and develop a log-linear model using a new distribution so-called the log-beta general- ized half normal distribution.We ...

THE TRANSMUTED HALF-NORMAL DISTRIBUTION WITH APPLICATION TO PRECIPITATION DATA [PDF]

open access: yesPesquisa Operacional, 2020
ABSTRACT The Half-Normal distribution has been intensively extended in the recent years. A review of the literature showed that at least 10 extensions of the Half-Normal distribution were introduced between 2008 and 2016. These extensions generalized the behavior of the density and hazard functions, which are restricted to monotonous decreasing and ...
