Solutions Of Some Visibility And Contour Problems In The Visualisation Of Surfaces
(University of Nairobi, 2000)
We give a short survey of the main principles of our software
for the visualisation and animation in mathematics and study the visibility
and contour problems in the representation of surfaces, which we solve for
generalised ...
Dispersal distance of rice (Oryza Sativa L.) pollen at the Tana River delta in the coast province, Kenya
(2009)
Rice is a staple food in Kenya and its production needs to be increased. Genetically modified (GM) rice may be a solution, but before it can be introduced, potential ecological impacts, such as pollen mediated gene flow ...
The bradley-terry model for handling categorical response variables from farmer participatory trials
(Pushpa publishing house, 2006)
This paper looks at responses from participatory on-farm farmer
participatory trials that are often measured as ratings (farmers score
each given treatment on a scale that is ordered but arbitrary) or
rankings (where ...
Estimation of IBNR Claims Reserves Using Linear Models
(2008)
Stochastic models for triangular data are derived and applied to claims reserving data. The
standard actuarial technique, the chain ladder technique is given a sound statistical
foundation and considered as a linear ...
Impact of land use on distribution and diversity of Fusarium species in Taita Taveta, Kenya
(2009)
The effect of Land Use Types (LUTs) on distribution and diversity of Fusarium species in soil were evaluated in Taita Taveta district, Kenya. Soil samples were collected from sixty points across a land use gradient covering ...
Asymptotic linear estimation of the quantile function of a location-scale Family of distributions based on selected order statistics
(JKUAT Press Ltd, 2005)
Abstract. Some general asymptotic methods of estimating the
quantile function, Q(~), 0 < ~ < 1, of location-scale fainilies
of distributions based on a few selected order statistics are
considered, with applications to ...
Diurnal population trends of Megalurothrips sjostedti and Frankliniella occidentalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) and their natural enemies on French bean Phaseolus vulgaris (Fabaceae)
(ICIPE, 2006)
A field experiment was conducted to track the daily population trends and
occurrence of the flower thrips Megalurothrips sjostedti Trybom and Frankliniella occidenialis
(Pergande), and their indigenous natural enemies ...
Automatic Diacritic Restoration for Resource-Scarce Languages
(2007)
The orthography of many resource-scarce languages includes diacritically marked characters. Falling outside the scope of the standard Latin encoding, these characters are often represented in digital language resources as ...
