Authors Margaret Kovach and Irving Seidman address the use of narratives or interviews and the responsibility a researcher has to their participants. If not done responsibly‚ researchers in the past and to some extent today can do harm to those interviewed. Both speak of using approved interview approaches and gaining participant consent when using information collected during research. Ms. Kovach’s (2012) book‚ Indigenous Methodologies: Characteristics‚ Conversations‚ and Context‚ illuminates

my curiosity I chose to write my bachelor’s thesis about three-dimensional surface construction methods. I mainly focused on analyzing surfaces defined by functions‚ giving a brief attention to a polygonal mesh. I analyzed and compared various interpolation (Lagrange‚ Hermite‚ Spline) and approximation (Bezier‚ B-Spline‚ NURBS) methods used in curve and surface design. Thanks to this thesis I gained confidence that concepts and math behind the computer graphics are not from another world. Currently

2. METHODOLOGY AND DATA 2.1 Holdridge Life Zones In Holdridge (1967) life zones approach (Figure 1)‚ there two assumptions: 1) The temperature and precipitation variables are main factors determining life zones (or biomes). 2) The vegetation is assumed to be independent of animals. According to the assumptions‚ the primary influences on life zones are those factors that make up climate of the Holdridge system. In this respect‚ it is not unlike the systems of Köppen (1931) and Thornthwaite (1948)

The Holy Quran carries a Divine guarantee of safeguard from interpolation and it claims that it combines the best features of the earlier scriptures. The prime message of Islam is the Unity of God‚ that the Creator of the world is One and He alone is worthy of worship and that Muhammad (peace and blessings on

Analyze the implications of the findings from your Part II Final Project assignment. When constructing a multiple regression model‚ we must ask the question “Does a linear relationship exist between the dependent variable and the independent variables. Based on the multiple regression model of the Virginia hospitals data‚ all of the independent variables are not significant predictors of the dependent variable. This is evidenced by the varying p-values shown in the regression analysis. The null

decimal‚ and change in time is measured in seconds. The inflow into the tank was then graphed to show the Inflow vs. Time‚ the results obtained had some outliers in the initial negative trend so a linear interpolation of the part of the data set was instead used. The amendment via linear interpolation can be found in Appendix A‚ the graph is displayed below in Figure 1.

incorporate hardware enhancements for achieving high resolution images. Hence‚ a signal processing approach to increase the resolution of images obtained from the phone camera is desirable. Image interpolation methods are not considered as super-resolution methods since even the ideal sinc interpolation cannot recover the high frequency components that are lost in the low-resolution sampling process. Most of the super-resolution approaches work on the principle of combining multiple slightly-shifted

HISTORY OF LOGARITHMS 1ST SOURCE: (sosmath.com) Logarithms were invented independently by John Napier‚ a Scotsman‚ and by Joost Burgi‚ a Swiss. The logarithms which they invented differed from each other and from the common and natural logarithms now in use. Napier’s logarithms were published in 1614; Burgi’s logarithms were published in 1620. The objective of both men was to simplify mathematical calculations. Napier’s approach was algebraic and Burgi’s approach was geometric. Neither

scores to parents or other professionals not familiar with the AE scoring‚ they might conclude the client with the AE score of 14 is below average and the AE score of 22 is gifted. Conversely‚ this range is average for AE scores in this test. Interpolation and extrapolation is the process used to derive AE scores. This is not an accurate representation of scores. It is an educated manipulation of numbers based on examinees and applied into a CA score graph. The scorers plot the AE scores into a
