Optimization of Germination Conditions Of Melia volkensii By Response Surface Methodology
(2016-09)
Germination of Melia volkensii was modelled using response surface methodology (rsm) whereby second order models were developed and the associated response surfaces analyzed. The factors under investigation were soil pH, ...
Capture–recapture for estimating the size of the female sex worker population in three cities in Coˆ te d’Ivoire and in Kisumu, western Kenya
(2010-12)
Objective To estimate the female sex worker population size in three cities in Coˆ te d’Ivoire and in Kisumu, Kenya. Methods Capture–recapture was used, calculating size estimates by first ‘tagging’ a number of individuals ...
An Analysis of the Performance of Students in Seven Statistics Units at University Of Eldoret
(2017-10)
This study analyzed the performance in seven statistics units of students who were admitted for a Bachelor of Science (Applied Statistics with Computing) course at University of Eldoret, Kenya in 2012. The units were taught ...
Markov Chain Model for Time Series and its Application to Forecasting Stock Market Prices
(2018-09)
A Markov chain is a discrete-valued Markov process; discrete-valued means that the state space of possible values of the Markov chain is finite or countable. This paper seeks to forecast stock market prices using Markov ...
ASYMPTOTIC LINEAR ESTIMATION OF THE QUANTILE FUNCTION OF THE DOUBLE-EXPONENTIAL DISTRIBUTION BASED ON SELECTED ORDER STATISTICS
(2012)
Asymptotic linear estimation of the quantile function for the location-scale family of distributions is considered and results relating to the double-exponential distribution discussed. A formula for the selection of sample ...
Application of Mixture Experiments in Poultry Feed Formulation
(2018-12)
The quality, components, proportions and storage of feeds is critical in poultry farming. The rising prices and poor quality of feeds has constantly led to low returns due to low final weights among birds. The study applied ...
Analysing Four Factor Second Order Models Using Response Surface Methodology with Application in Germination of Melia volkensii
(2017-12)
Second order models are useful in situations where there are curvilinear effects present in the true response function. Such models have real life applications in a wide variety of fields such as agriculture, biology, and ...
