Design of contemporary antennas necessarily involves electromagnetic (EM) simulation tools. Their employment is imperative to ensure evaluation reliability but also to carry out the design process itself, especially, the adjustment of antenna dimensions.

Sequential spatially balanced sampling
AbstractSequential sampling occurs when an entire population is unknown in advance and data are received one by one or in groups of units. This article proposes a new algorithm to sequentially select a balanced sample. The algorithm respects equal and unequal inclusion probabilities.

The Epistemology of Evolutionary Psychology Offers a Rapprochement to Cultural Psychology
Many detractors of evolutionary psychology (EP) presume that adaptive arguments are nothing more than whimsical and unfalsifiable just-so stories. The reality though is that the epistemology of EP is precisely the opposite of this antiquated canard in ...

Sequential sampling: a novel method in farm animal welfare assessment
Lameness in dairy cows is an important welfare issue. As part of a welfare assessment, herd level lameness prevalence can be estimated from scoring a sample of animals, where higher levels of accuracy are associated with larger sample sizes.

Spatial distribution and fixed precision sequential sampling model of corn leaf aphid, Rhopalosiphum maidis (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in barley fields [PDF]
In this research, barley aphids in Mahidasht region of Kermanshah province were identified. Spatial distribution type and statistics for corn leaf aphid, Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch) were also studied and sequential sampling models were developed ...

Generalised linear mixed model analysis via sequential Monte Carlo sampling [PDF]
We present a sequential Monte Carlo sampler algorithm for the Bayesian analysis of generalised linear mixed models (GLMMs). These models support a variety of interesting regression-type analyses, but performing inference is often extremely difficult ...

A Novel Sequential Sampling Algorithm for Reliability Assessment of Microgrids
Due to the polymorphic uncertainties in microgrids (MGs), prohibitive computational burden is produced in reliability assessment. In this work, a novel sequential sampling algorithm (NSSA) compatible with sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) simulation is ...
