Parameter estimation for a model with both imperfect test and repair
(IEEE, 2007)We describe estimation of the parameters of a manufacturing test and repair model using data available from that test. The model allows imperfect testing and imperfect repair. The principal problem that we address is ... -
Predicting the number of known and unknown species in European seas using rates of description
(2011)Aim? In this paper, we compare species description rates to predict the numbers of undescribed species. These data are used to discuss the merits of various attempts to estimate species richness in the oceans. Location? ... -
Predicting total global species richness using rates of species description and estimates of taxonomic effort
(2012)We found that trends in the rate of description of 580,000 marine and terrestrial species, in the taxonomically authoritative World Register of Marine Species and Catalogue of Life databases, were similar until the 1950s. ... -
A probability model of system downtime with implications for optimal warranty design
(2009)Traditional approaches to modeling the availability of a system often do not formally take into account uncertainty over the parameter values of the model. Such models are then frequently criticised because the ... -
Progress and perspectives in the discovery of polychaete worms (Annelida) of the world
(2019)Despite the availability of well-documented data, a comprehensive review of the discovery progress of polychaete worms (Annelida) has never been done. In the present study, we reviewed available data in the World Register ... -
Progress in the discovery of amphipod crustaceans
(2018)At present, amphipod crustaceans comprise 9,980 species, 1,664 genera, 444 subfamilies, and 221 families. Of these, 1,940 species (almost 20%) have been discovered within the last decade, including 18 fossil records for ... -
Rate of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
(2011)Background The population rate of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) is frequently reported as 10%. However, a systematic review and meta-analysis of the true population based frequency of FALS has never been ... -
Reinforced EM Algorithm for Clustering with Gaussian Mixture Models
(2023)Methods that employ the EM algorithm for parameter estimation typically face the notorious yet unsolved problem that the initialization input significantly impacts the algorithm output. We here develop a Reinforced ... -
Reliability assessment from fatigue micro-crack data
(IEEE, 1997)Summary & Conclusions -Micro-cracks are generally defined to be cracks less than 1 nun in length, which propagate under cyclic stresses until they grow large and cause failure in an item (eg, component or structure). This ... -
Saddlepoint Approximation for the Generalized Inverse Gaussian Levy Process
(2022)The generalized inverse Gaussian (GIG) Lévy process is a limit of compound Poisson processes, including the stationary gamma process and the stationary inverse Gaussian process as special cases. However, fitting the GIG ... -
Semantic image segmentation based on spatial relationships and inexact graph matching
(2020)We propose a method for semantic image segmentation, combining a deep neural network and spatial relationships between image regions, encoded in a graph representation of the scene. Our proposal is based on inexact graph ... -
Short-term traffic flow forecasting with A-SVARMA
(2013)Short-term Traffic Flow Forecasting (STFF), the process of predicting future traffic conditions based on historical and real-time observations, is an essential aspect of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The existing ... -
A split Poisson process model for the occurrence of defects and change requests during user acceptance testing
(Trinity College Dublin, 2005)Software developed for a specific customer under contract typically undergoes a period of testing by the customer before acceptance. This is known as user acceptance testing and the process can reveal both defects in ... -
Squaring the Circle? Work and Family Issues among Owners of Small Business
(ISBE, 2010-11)This paper addresses the largely under-researched theme of how entrepreneurs in Ireland manage their business lives in parallel with their family commitments, with specific reference to dependent children. Since the ... -
Statistical Hough Transform
(IEEE, 2009)The Standard Hough Transform is a popular method in image processing and is traditionally estimated using histograms. Densities modelled with histograms in high dimensional space and/or with few observations, can be very ... -
A Stochastic EM Algorithm for Progressively Censored Data Analysis
(2014)Progressive censoring technique is useful in lifetime data analysis. Simple approaches to progressive data analysis are crucial for its widespread adoption by reliability engineers. This study develops an efficient yet ... -
Struggling with juggling: gender and work/life balance in the legal professions
(Elsevier, 2006)Since the 1960s, women have begun emerging into the public sphere and the public/private divide has been eroding. However, women's participation in the public sphere remains limited by the ongoing need to do two jobs (`the ... -
A Theoretical Analysis of Density Peaks Clustering and the Component-wise Peak-Finding Algorithm
(2023)Density peaks clustering detects modes as points with high density and large distance to points of higher density. Each non-mode point is assigned to the same cluster as its nearest neighbor of higher density. Density ... -
Trinity College Dublin Drone Survey Dataset
(School of Computer Science & Statistics, Trinity College Dublin, Trinity College Dublin, 2017)The dataset consists of 6 Zipped files and a Technical Report detailing the project. The original images from the drone survey are contained in the files names Images 1, Images 2, Images 3 and Images 4. The 3D mesh model ...
