Censored regression model

This topic addressed various problems that arise in the business industry and how to resolve problems through choosing the appropriate forecasting model and techniques for a given situation. One major problem could be determining which forecasting model should a new startup company use when they have insufficient data. Another common problem that is faced by large companies involves separating out critical information from other irrelevant data to generate profitable forecasts. Also, deciding on…

other factors, in this data set. The dependent variable and each of the independent variables should be analyzed so that the variability in each relationship of the dependent variable to the independent variables is clear. The estimated multiple regression equation for sale price based on all of the variables, excluding destination, is: estimated fare (in $) = 65.975 +.057*distance-.035*avg passenger +90.004*mkt share +.681(if 2012) +.312(if 2013) +10.058(if 2014). The estimated equation does…

This paper is an academic critique of an article written by Sapna Solanki (2013) titled: Determinants of Consumer Involvement: A Quantitative Analysis of Laptop Purchase. The author undertook a research study to find out the impact of demographic variables and attributes on consumer involvement in purchase of laptops. My examination deliberately concentrates on particular parts of the article as far as procedure and legitimacy of exploration strategies and results. I have attempted to develop a…

the original data to compute the weber fraction and the same analysis test were performed. For this study, we were specifically interested on the data yielded from the Test of Within-Subjects Contrast and Effects and an ANOVA performed from our regression analysis. In addition, both sets of data were plotted to investigate whether the data would be consistent with previous studies. The Test of Within-Subjects Contrast and Test of Within-Subjects Effects for just the JNDs was not significant…

The Kriging weights w_i1,w_i2,w_i3,…w_ik can be used to estimate the fair value of VA contracts x ⃑_i by the following formula, y ̂_i=∑_(j=1)^k▒〖w_ij∙y_j 〗. The kriging weights can be calculated by the following linear equations, Where the is a control variable, which is used to make sure that ∑_(j=1)^k▒w_ij =1. V_rs=α+exp⁡(-3/β D(z ⃑_r,z ⃑_s,λ)),r,s=1,2,3,…,k, D_ij=α+exp⁡(-3/β D(x ⃑_i,z ⃑_j,λ)),j=1,2,3,…,k, The D(.) function is the distance function mentioned in the clustering section…

Part 1 JEDR Critique 1.1. Condition Specifications There is a mistake in the calculation of the assumed wheel circumference. Based on the obtained data from JEDR report, the average wheel diameter is 406 mm and by using the circumference formula, 2πr, the result should be 1.275 m. However, JEDR report says the wheel circumference is 1.2 m. This number should be rounded up to 1.3 m instead of rounded down since this might give critical error in further calculations. The previous wheel…

17. SATISFACTION INDEX On the basis of the responses received on the different parameters, satisfaction index has been prepared both for Big Bazaar and Vishal Mega Mart.

BEEG performance measurement is calculated using the general method as well as the “standard method” of Confusion Matrix and is presented in following sections. 6.2.1 Using General Method: Although more or less, the end results were similar for all mental tasks performed on subjects under various categories as shown in all graphs of Chapter 6 and Fig B.1 to B.10 in appendix B, but for ease, mean accuracy chart is figured out here using all graphs and are shown next. The mean accuracy of BEEG…

Crystal Methodology Critique, Benefits and limitations Crystal methodology was first bound by Cockburn in 1998. In crystal, the projects are divided according to their size and the criticality of the system being produced (Ramsin & Paige, 2008). Member of the crystal family is marked with a color to show the weight of the methodology, that means the darker the color the heavier the methodology. Crystal recommends choosing the appropriate color of methodology for a project based on its size and…

2. Themes 2.1. Main Themes 2.1.1. Illusion vs. Reality “Oh, life would be tolerable enough, even so, if we could only be rid of these infernal duns who come to us poor people’s doors with their claim of ideal” (Ibsen, 1961:260). According to Halsey (1970:56), this sentence sums up the essence of The Wild Duck. The Ekdal family lives happily in a seemingly perfect life. A life that was built on illusion. The main character, Hjalmar Ekdal, emphasises the theme through his doings, often turning a…
