A NEW flexible exponent power family of distributions with biomedical data analysis.

Probability distributions are widely utilized in applied sciences, especially in the field of biomedical science. Biomedical data typically exhibit positive skewness, necessitating the use of flexible, skewed distributions to effectively model such phenomena. In this study, we introduce a novel approach to characterize new lifetime distributions, known as the New Flexible Exponent Power (NFEP) Family of distributions.

Precision enhancement in variance estimation for complex environmental populations using adaptive cluster sampling.

Estimating dispersion in populations that are extremely rare, hidden, geographically clustered, and hard to access is a well-known challenge. Conventional sampling approaches tend to overestimate the variance, even though it should be genuinely reduced. In this environment, adaptive cluster sampling is considered to be the most efficient sampling technique as it provides generally a lower variance than the other conventional probability sampling designs for the assessment of rare and geographically gathered population parameters like mean, total, variance, etc.

Community Diversity of Fungi Carried by Four Common Woodpeckers in Heilongjiang Province, China.

Woodpeckers exhibit selectivity when choosing tree cavities for nest development in forest ecosystems, and fungi play a significant and important role in this ecological process. Therefore, there is a complex and intricate relationship between the various behaviors of woodpeckers and the occurrence of fungal species. Research into the complex bond between fungi and woodpeckers was undertaken to provide more information about this remarkable ecological relationship.

Dual-type quantile regression approach for mean estimation incorporating sampled and non-sampled data.

Drawing inspiration from recent advancements in robust mean estimation within finite sampling theory, we introduce a novel dual-type class of mean estimators in a design-based framework. The dual-type class is based on quantile regression and is specifically designed to be effective in the presence of extreme observations. Significantly, it integrates the averages of both sampled observations and non-sampled observations of auxiliary variable.

Calibrated EWMA estimators for time-scaled surveys with diverse applications.

Recently, several memory-type mean estimators (including ratio, product, and logarithmic) have been developed. These estimators rely on exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA), which incorporate both historical and present sample data. In this article, we propose EWMA type calibrated estimators under single and double stratified random sampling ().

Cooperative Distributed Uplink Cache over B5G small cell networks.

The emergence of content-centric network has resulted in a substantial increase in data transmission in both uplink and downlink directions. To tackle the ensuing challenges of network congestion and bottlenecks in backhaul links within Beyond Fifth Generation (B5G) networks, data caching has emerged as a popular solution. However, caching for uplink transmission in a distributed B5G scenario poses several challenges, including duplicate content matching and users' obliviousness about cached contents.

Synthesis and analysis of silica nanocarriers for pectinase immobilization: Enhancing enzymatic stability for continuous industrial applications.

Pectinolytic enzymes are among the important group of industrial enzymes that have wide applications in different food industries. In this study, pectinase-based silica nanocarriers were synthesized using co-precipitation and cross-linking techniques. The resulting silica nanoparticles were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive electron microscopy (EDEX), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) for determination of its morphology, elemental composition, and crystalline pattern.

Phylogenetic Analysis and Emerging Drug Resistance against Different Nucleoside Analogues in Hepatitis B Virus Positive Patients.

Several nucleotide analogues have been approved for use in treating hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Long-term exposure to therapy leads to the emergence of mutations within the HBV DNA polymerase gene, resulting in drug resistance, a major factor contributing to therapy failure. Chronic HBV patients from the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Pakistan, who had completed 6 months of therapy participated in this study.

Antibiotic Resistance Profiling and Phylogenicity of Uropathogenic Bacteria Isolated from Patients with Urinary Tract Infections.
