Two alternative techniques for fitting the gravimetric geoid for Egypt

open access: yesContributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2023
In this paper, two proposed geoid fitting techniques for Egypt's gravimetrically determined geoid and Global Positioning System GPS/levelling-derived geoid are introduced. First, any errors in the available GPS stations are ruled out.

Variable Selection and Regularization in Quantile Regression via Minimum Covariance Determinant Based Weights

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
The importance of variable selection and regularization procedures in multiple regression analysis cannot be overemphasized. These procedures are adversely affected by predictor space data aberrations as well as outliers in the response space. To counter

Invariance of Charge of Laughlin Quasiparticles

open access: yes, 2000
A Quantum Antidot electrometer has been used in the first direct observation of the fractionally quantized electric charge. In this paper we report experiments performed on the integer i = 1, 2 and fractional f = 1/3 quantum Hall plateaus extending over ...

Variable selection for zero-inflated and overdispersed data with application to health care demand in Germany [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In health services and outcome research, count outcomes are frequently encountered and often have a large proportion of zeros. The zero-inflated negative binomial (ZINB) regression model has important applications for this type of data.

Using Parameter Elimination to Solve Discrete Linear Chebyshev Approximation Problems

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
We consider discrete linear Chebyshev approximation problems in which the unknown parameters of linear function are fitted by minimizing the least maximum absolute deviation of errors.
