The traditional linear transformation model assumes a linear relationship between the transformed response and the covariates. However, in real data, this linear relationship may be violated. We ...

Ventilatory function is a measure of the amount of air a subject can breathe, and is widely used epidemiologically for screening against chronic respiratory disease. The two indices considered here, ...

Two vectors of information are needed to produce the optimally scaled variable: the initial variable scaling vector x and the target vector y. For convenience, both vectors are first sorted on the ...

SAS/INSIGHT fit analysis provides the traditional parametric regression analysis assuming that the regression function is linear in the unknown parameters. The relationship is expressed as an equation ...

THIS most welcome treatise fills a serious gap in English mathematical literature. It provides for the first time a comprehensive account of the general transformation theory which steadily dominates ...

A recent Design Idea presents a circuit to measure an airflow rate up to 2000 fpm using two transistors in a Darlington configuration. One transistor works as a self-heated thermal sensor and the ...
