A bivariate extension of the Hosking and Wallis goodness-of-fit measure for regional distributions
This study presents a bivariate extension of the goodness-of-fit measure for regional frequency distributions developed by Hosking and Wallis [1993] for use with the method of L-moments. Utilising the approximate joint normal...

All 3 activation pathways of complement-the classic pathway (CP), the alternative pathway, and the lectin pathway (LP)- converge into a common central event: the cleavage and activation of the abundant third complement...
Improving Organizational Sustainable Performance of Organizations Through Green Training
It is necessary to equip employees with green abilities as well as to develop their dedication towards green behaviour, in order to improve an organization's environmental performance. The purpose of this research is to evaluate...

Does Islamic Marketing Mix Affect Consumer Satisfaction?
Viju Mathew
Jan 01, 2022
Customer and customer satisfaction is considered to be the core for success. Targeting the growing Islamic customer population has given the opportunity to tap demand based on Islamic values. Apart from the standard marketing...

How do we manage overdiagnosis/overtreatment in breast screening?
MG Wallis
Feb 13, 2018
Overdiagnosis is the inevitable flip side of early detection resulting in unnecessary labelling of well women with a diagnosis of cancer and possible unnecessary treatment. Overdiagnosis occurs because breast cancers have...
Carb-conscious; The role of carbohydrate intake in recovery from exercise
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The present review summarized evidence on the role of carbohydrates in recovery from exercise within the context of acute and chronic effects on metabolism and performance. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent studies...
The Genetic Basis of Obesity and Related Metabolic Diseases in Humans and Companion Animals.
Connectivity of soft random geometric graphs
Mathew Penrose
Apr 01, 2016
Consider a graph on $n$ uniform random points in the unit square, each pair being connected by an edge with probability $p$ if the inter-point distance is at most $r$. We show that as $n \to \infty$ the probability of full...
Leaves on the line and in the plane
Mathew Penrose
May 05, 2020
The dead leaves model (DLM) provides a random tessellation of $d$-space, representing the visible portions of fallen leaves on the ground when $d=2$. For $d=1$, we establish formulae for the intensity, two-point correlations...
The Genetic Basis of Obesity and Related Metabolic Diseases in Humans and Companion Animals
Obesity is one of the most prevalent health conditions in humans and companion animals globally. It is associated with premature mortality, metabolic dysfunction, and multiple health conditions across species. Obesity is...

Dislocation interactions in olivine control postseismic creep of the upper mantle
Abstract: Changes in stress applied to mantle rocks, such as those imposed by earthquakes, commonly induce a period of transient creep, which is often modelled based on stress transfer among slip systems due to grain...
Evaluating Onsite and Online Internship Mode Using Consumptive Metrics
The paper aims to assess the effectiveness between onsite and online internship mode by measuring the critical components of learning through the Kirkpatrick's ‘consumptive metrics' model. The primary goal of internship is to...

Symposium 3:The mechanisms of nutrient interactions
The objective of this review paper is to evaluate the impact of undertaking aerobic exercise in the overnight-fasted v. fed-state, in the context of optimising the health benefits of regular physical activity. Conducting a...

An apparatus for measuring nonlinear viscoelasticity of minerals at high temperature
We describe a high-temperature, uniaxial creep apparatus designed to investigate nonlinear attenuation of materials over a wide range of
temperatures (25–1300 ○C) using forced oscillations combined with a bias stress. This...
Leaf margin organisation and the existence of vaterite-producing hydathodes in the alpine plant Saxifraga scardica
Some sections of species within the genus Saxifraga deposit a chalky crust on the surface of their leaves, originating from the guttation medium produced by the sunken hydathodes found generally at or near the leaf margin. The...

Rank deficiency in sparse random GF[2] matrices
Mathew Penrose
Sep 14, 2014
Let M be a random m×n matrix with binary entries and i.i.d. rows. The weight (i.e., number of ones) of a row has a specified probability distribution, with the row chosen uniformly at random given its weight. Let N(n,m) denote...
