Using R via PHP for Teaching Purposes: R-php
2006
This paper deals with the R-php statistical software, that is an environment for statistical analysis, freely accessible and attainable through the World Wide Web, based on R. Indeed, this software uses, as "engine" for statistical analyses, R via PHP and its design has been inspired by a paper of de Leeuw (1997). R-php is based on two modules: a base module and a point-and-click module. R-php base allows the simple editing of R code in a form. R-php point-and-click allows some statistical analyses by means of a graphical user interface (GUI): then, to use this module it is not necessary for the user to know the R environment, but all the allowed analyses can be performed by using the compu…

A Morphosyntactical Complementary Structure for Searching and Browsing
2006
This paper is a proposal for the construction of a pseudo-net built with precisely defined tokens describing the content and structure of the original WWW. This construction is derived by morphosyntactical analysis and should be structured with a post-processing mechanism. It is provided also an in-depth analysis of requirements and hypothesis to be stated to accomplish with this goal. An in-depth analysis of requirements and hypothesis to be stated to accomplish this goal is also provided. Such derived structure could act as an alternate network theme organization with a compacted version of the original web material. This paper does not describe nor study the post-processing approaches. I…
Dialog Structure Automatic Modeling
2010
This paper presents the approach implemented as part of a conversational bot named WIH (Word Intelligent Handler). It has a complex architecture with several components. Some of them are the ER-memory, EP-memory and other minor modules that provide the prototype of good modeling of Spanish sentences. They constitute the knowledge-representation mechanism that is used by WIH to build automatic answers during dialogs with humans. In this paper a small description of these components and some of its interaction is given, along with test cases and a statistical analysis of the results obtained. It is shown here that WIH prototype can adapt its behavior and learning rate of its internal working …
Brain Cortical Complexity and Subcortical Morphometrics in Lifelong Premature Ejaculation
2020
Premature ejaculation (PE) is the most common male sexual dysfunction. The brain disturbances that cause this disorder remain poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate how the morphology of cortical and subcortical brain structures differed in PE, how these morphologic differences were associated with severity measures of PE, such as intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT), and how these cortical and subcortical structures were causally connected through mediation analysis. Anatomical MRI scans were acquired from 39 male participants, 23 with PE (28.78 ± 4.32 years), and 16 without PE (27.88 ± 3.65 years). We used a subcortical analysis package within FSL to perform subcortica…
Statistical analysis of RaptorQ failure probability applied to a data recovery software
2014
In this work, we have implemented a data recovery software integrating the most recent rateless codes, i.e., RaptorQ codes. Thanks to the above-mentioned software, it is possible to recover data loss occurring on several kinds of network conditions. We have performed a statistical analysis of failure probabilities at several configurations of RaptorQ parameters. We have found a good agreement with the theoretical values of a random linear fountain code over Galois Field GF(256). Moreover, we have shown that the probability of having a certain number of failed decoded source blocks - when sending a fixed size file - follows a Poisson distribution.
Long term stability of learning outcomes in undergraduates after an open-inquiry instruction on thermal science
2018
This paper investigates the efficacy of an open-inquiry approach to achieve a long term stability of physics instruction. This study represents the natural continuation of a research project started four years ago when a sample of thirty engineering undergraduates, having already attended traditional university physics instruction, were involved in a six-week long learning experience of open-inquiry research activities within the highly motivating context of developing a thermodynamically efficient space base on Mars. Four years later, we explore the effectiveness of that learning experience by analyzing the outcomes that the students achieved by answering again the same questionnaire that …
Response: platelet transcriptome and proteome—relation rather than correlation
2013
We have demonstrated by a detailed statistical analysis of proteome and transcriptome data of human platelets and human cell lines that protein and transcript abundance in platelets, if at all, are only weakly correlated.[1][1] This analysis appears to be in contradiction to previous claims made
Attitudes toward technological resources in the classroom of the future teachers
2015
The aim of this study is to analyze attitudes future teachers towards technological resources in the classroom. We have considered three dimensions for analysis, the practice in the classroom, student learning and the valuation that future teachers as make their own attitude technological resources. For the statistical analysis used descriptive techniques; t test for comparison of independent groups, and univariate analysis of covariance (ANOVA). The results indicate that attitudes is positive, but we can see that there are some significant differences in gender respects to some of the issues raised.
Statistical Analysis of the (In)efficiency of Bitcoin : A comparison of the weak form efficient market hypothesis in the US and Venezuela
2019
Master's thesis Business Administration BE501 - University of Agder 2019 Bitcoin is a phenomenon that has received a lot of attentionduringthe last years. Although the literature on the subject has expanded, there is still need for more research. This paper replicates the work of Urquhart (2016) and examines whether there isevidence ofweak form efficiency in the Bitcoin market. He found that the Bitcoin market in the US showed signs of moving towards weak form efficiency. We contribute to the existing literature by adding recentdata and comparing two different markets;the USand Venezuela. To obtain robustness of the results, the analysis is conducted by performing six different statistical …
