Modelling response of Delottococcus aberiae (De lotto) male captures to pheromone emission rates

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 12, Page 8543-8551, December 2025.
Using increasing doses of the sex pheromone of D. aberiae, our model revealed that the emission levels to maximize the captures of males ranges from 0.4 to 40 μg/day. Abstract BACKGROUND An invasive mealybug from South Africa identified as Delottococcus aberiae (De Lotto) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) is causing severe distortions and fruit size ...

The Future of AI in the GCC Post‐NPM Landscape: A Comparative Analysis of Kuwait and the UAE

Politics &Policy, Volume 53, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Comparative evidence of how two Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states translate artificial intelligence (AI) ambitions into post–New Public Management (post‐NPM) outcomes are scarce because most studies focus on Western democracies. To fill this gap, we examine constitutional, collective choice, and operational rules that shape AI uptake in ...

Assessing Dominance in Survival Functions: A Test for Right-Censored Data

Mathematics
This paper proposes a new statistical test to assess the dominance of survival functions in the presence of right-censored data. Traditional methods, such as the Log-Rank test, are inadequate for determining whether one survival function consistently ...

A Note on Estimation of Multi-Sigmoidal Gompertz Functions with Random Noise

Mathematics, 2019
The behaviour of many dynamic real phenomena shows different phases, with each one following a sigmoidal type pattern. This requires studying sigmoidal curves with more than one inflection point. In this work, a diffusion process is introduced whose mean

Distorted distributions and ROC curves

Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 1786-1815, December 2025.
Abstract We consider new distortion functions based on the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and ordinal dominance (OD) curves. Various stochastic orders and aging properties are characterized by using the interpretation of ROC and OD distortions as cumulative distribution functions of suitable relative random variables.
