The nonequivalent groups with anchor test (NEAT) design is widely used in test equating. Under this design, two groups of examinees are administered different test forms with each test form containing a subset of common ...

The South Pacific Hake (Merluccius gayi) is the main artisan gillnet fishery in central Chile and the South American sea lion (SASL, Otaria byronia) has a strong operational interaction with this fishery. This was analyzed ...

(Co)variance matrices for the assumed model, and thus the specification of the dispersion parameters, should take into account both the negative competition and the positive spatial correlations. In this context, we applied ...

Data from 58 strong-lensing events surveyed by the Sloan Lens ACS Survey are used to estimate the projected galaxy mass inside their Einstein radii by two independent methods: stellar dynamics and strong gravitational ...

Background: There are several studies in the literature depicting measurement error in gene expression data and also, several others about regulatory network models. However, only a little fraction describes a combination ...

Competing risks are used to model life of systems with multiple failure modes where the observed failure is the minimum of the possible individual failures times. This research studies the effect ofignoring the risks by ...

Cuerpos silenciados, grietas sociales y humanas, nace con la fuerte necesidad de dar a conocer la premisa que me ha acompañado durante toda la maestría: el silencio, el mío y el de mis estudiantes, el de un sujeto o sujetos ...

Existing techniques for reducing magnetic fields at 60Hz, such as the use of metallic materials and changing the configuration of the system, are often inefficient and costly. The search for a solution that, while technically ...
