Comparative Study of the Distributions Used To Model Dispersion
(University of Nairobi, 2012)
The negative binomial distribution has been widely used and to a lesser extent the Ney-
man Type A distribution, whereas the Polya-Aeppli distribution has received no attention in modeling
overdispersed (clustered) ...
On Modelling and Pricing Index Linked Catastrophe Derivatives
(University of Nairobi, 2012)
We consider the problem of indifference pricing of derivatives written on CAT bonds. The
industrial loss index is modeled by a compound Poisson process and the number of claims as doubly
stochastic process, such that its ...
A Stochastic Model for Planning a Compartmental Education System and Supply of Manpowe
(University of Nairobi, 2012)
This paper describes a Markov Chain transition model that encompasses the different com-
partments of an education system. The model clearly shows transition rates within compartments and
also between compartments, thus ...
Automatic classification of plasmodium parasites using stained RGB images
(2012)
In this work, an accurate, speedy and affordable model
of malaria diagnosis using stained thin blood smear
images as developed. The method makes use of the
morphological, colour and texture features of
plasmodium ...
Developments in Medical Elementology and Spectral Diagnostics of Disease Via Chemometrics and Machine Learning Assisted Trace Spectroanalytics and Imaging Towards Applications in Nanomedicine
(2012)
The chemical composition of body fluids and tissue are correlated to the state of health. The
concentration level and speciation alterations, as well as correlations of trace chemicals in body tissues
and fluids can thus ...
Application of Multi-spectral Satellite Imagery in Monitoring of Aquatic Vegetation and Water Quality Parameters in Large Inland Waters
(2012)
Following the great potential of optical remote sensing
and its increased application in quality assessment of
inland waters, we have developed time dependent
vegetation abundance prediction models based on its
statistical ...
