This paper describes the robustness determination and optimization of L-cysteine addition for total mercury content determination by Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA). Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis is an analysis technique to measure concentrations of chemical elements regardless …

Risk matrices have been widely used in the industry under the notion that risk is a product of likelihood by severity of the hazard or safety case under consideration. When reliable raw data are not available to feed mathematical models, experts are asked to state their estimations. This paper presents …

From the article: Abstract Adjustment and testing of a combination of stochastic and nonstochastic observations is applied to the deformation analysis of a time series of 3D coordinates. Nonstochastic observations are constant values that are treated as if they were observations. They are used to formulate …

Author supplied: "This paper gives a linearised adjustment model for the affine, similarity and congruence transformations in 3D that is easily extendable with other parameters to describe deformations. The model considers all coordinates stochastic. Full positive semi-definite covariance matrices and …

Scriptie als PDF in zip bestand met map met 5 bijlagen. Uit de managementsamenvatting: Aanleiding Uit een onderzoek van Gartner is gebleken, dat testen en traceability binnen DEVENTit tekortschieten. Als antwoord hierop is door een vorige afstudeerder een automatisch testprogramma geschreven. Dit document …

Vanuit mijn werkervaring binnen de Hondsberg is dit onderzoek "Ik wil ook tussen jullie nieuwe ideeën pASSen" tot stand gekomen. In het werk word ik regelmatig geconfronteerd met de beperkte kennis rondom ASS in combinatie met een zinvolle dagbesteding. Reden voor mij om de directie te vragen hier onderzoek …

From the literature three types of predictors for factor scores are available. These are characterized by the constraints: linear, linear conditionally unbiased, and linear correlation preserving. Each of these constraints generates a class of predictors. Best predictors are defined in terms of L?wner's …

The CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP) model decomposes a three-way array into a prespecified number of R factors and a residual array by minimizing the sum of squares of the latter. It is well known that an optimal solution for CP need not exist. We show that if an optimal CP solution does not exist, then any sequence …

The analysis of regulatory regions in genome sequences is strongly based on the detection of potential transcription factor binding sites. The preferred models for representation of transcription factor binding specificity have been termed position-specific scoring matrices. JASPAR is an open-access …

The subject of factor indeterminacy has a vast history in factor analysis (Guttman, 1955; Lederman, 1938; Wilson, 1928). It has lead to strong differences in opinion (Steiger, 1979). The current paper gives necessary and sufficient conditions for observability of factors in terms of the parameter matrices …
