In this paper, we examine the relationships between log odds rate and various reliability measures such as hazard rate and reversed hazard rate in the context of repairable systems. We also prove characterization theorems for some families of distributions viz. Burr, Pearson and log exponential models. We discuss the properties and applications of log odds rate in weighted models. Further we extend the concept to the bivariate set up and study its properties.

We compare correspondance análisis to the logratio approach based on compositional data. We also compare correspondance análisis and an alternative approach using Hellinger distance, for representing categorical data in a contingency table. We propose a coefficient which globally measures the similarity between these approaches. This coefficient can be decomposed into several components, one component for each principal dimension, indicating the contribution of the dimensions to the difference between the two representations. These three methods of representation can produce quite similar results. One illustrative example is given

Sediment composition is mainly controlled by the nature of the source rock(s), and chemical (weathering) and physical processes (mechanical crushing, abrasion, hydrodynamic sorting) during alteration and transport. Although the factors controlling these processes are conceptually well understood, detailed quantification of compositional changes induced by a single process are rare, as are examples where the effects of several processes can be distinguished. The present study was designed to characterize the role of mechanical crushing and sorting in the absence of chemical weathering. Twenty sediment samples were taken from Alpine glaciers that erode almost pure granitoid lithologies. For each sample, 11 grain-size fractions from granules to clay (ø grades <-1 to >9) were separated, and each fraction was analysed for its chemical composition. The presence of clear steps in the box-plots of all parts (in adequate ilr and clr scales) against ø is assumed to be explained by typical crystal size ranges for the relevant mineral phases. These scatter plots and the biplot suggest a splitting of the full grain size range into three groups: coarser than ø=4 (comparatively rich in SiO2, Na2O, K2O, Al2O3, and dominated by “felsic” minerals like quartz and feldspar), finer than ø=8 (comparatively rich in TiO2, MnO, MgO, Fe2O3, mostly related to “mafic” sheet silicates like biotite and chlorite), and intermediate grains sizes (4≤ø <8; comparatively rich in P2O5 and CaO, related to apatite, some feldspar). To further test the absence of chemical weathering, the observed compositions were regressed against three explanatory variables: a trend on grain size in ø scale, a step function for ø≥4, and another for ø≥8. The original hypothesis was that the trend could be identified with weathering effects, whereas each step function would highlight those minerals with biggest characteristic size at its lower end. Results suggest that this assumption is reasonable for the step function, but that besides weathering some other factors (different mechanical behavior of minerals) have also an important contribution to the trend. Key words: sediment, geochemistry, grain size, regression, step function

A visual SLAM system has been implemented and optimised for real-time deployment on an AUV equipped with calibrated stereo cameras. The system incorporates a novel approach to landmark description in which landmarks are local sub maps that consist of a cloud of 3D points and their associated SIFT/SURF descriptors. Landmarks are also sparsely distributed which simplifies and accelerates data association and map updates. In addition to landmark-based localisation the system utilises visual odometry to estimate the pose of the vehicle in 6 degrees of freedom by identifying temporal matches between consecutive local sub maps and computing the motion. Both the extended Kalman filter and unscented Kalman filter have been considered for filtering the observations. The output of the filter is also smoothed using the Rauch-Tung-Striebel (RTS) method to obtain a better alignment of the sequence of local sub maps and to deliver a large-scale 3D acquisition of the surveyed area. Synthetic experiments have been performed using a simulation environment in which ray tracing is used to generate synthetic images for the stereo system

Analizar el modelo log-linear y sus posibilidades de aplicación en la investigación educativa. Al mismo tiempo se hace un estudio de un medio didáctico: el libro de texto, analizando su relación con la función docente del profesor. 308 profesores de EGB de las dos provincias canarias. El muestreo fue ocasional. Se trata de un diseño ex post facto. Se procedió a la aplicación piloto de un cuestionario en una muestra reducida y a su análisis por parte de un grupo de expertos. Después de las modificaciones oportunas, se procedió a su aplicación final con la colaboración de diversos encuestadores para su distribución y recogida. Las variables principales fueron las siguientes. Rreferidas al profesor: años de experiencia, grado de dependencia del libro de texto y ciclo. Referidas a medios didácticos: frecuencia de uso, razones de uso, finalidad didáctica y dimensiones más valoradas para la enseñanza. Cuestionario 'Uso de medios en la enseñanza'. No existe entre el profesorado, considerado globalmente, una tendencia mayoritaria por la dependencia e independencia hacia el libro de texto. Los profesores veteranos tienden a ser dependientes del libro de texto. El resto de los profesores no se inclinan por la dependencia o independencia. La relación del texto con los programas oficiales sólo es valorada por los profesores del ciclo medio. La dimensión curricular centrada en la metodología que más importancia merece son las actividades que propone el texto, seguida del planteamiento metodológico que se desprende de la guía didáctica. La dimensión más valorada es la adecuación del texto, seguida del planteamiento metodológico que se desprende de la guía didáctica. La dimensión más valorada es la adecuación del texto al nivel de conocimientos de los alumnos. Le sigue en importancia el lenguaje utilizado y, finalmente, los aspectos formales del texto (colorido, tamaño, ilustraciones, etc.). Se pone de manifiesto el papel del libro de texto como un medio destinado básicamente a uso del alumnado. Su uso para el profesor se limita a servir de apoyo en sus explicaciones, en tanto que motivar y evaluar el aprendizaje son funciones con las cuales parece incompatible el uso del libro de texto. El análisis log-linear constituye un poderoso instrumento de análisis de variables nominales, con un grado de sofisticación estadística solo disponible hasta ahora para variables continuas. La abundancia de variables nominales en la investigación educativa, le hace especialmente apropiado para nuestro campo. Las ventajas del análisis log-linear dependen de: la naturaleza de las variables, mínimo número de categorías si se incluyen datos continuos, puntos de corte, estrategias de muestreo, etc. Sigue sin disponerse de criterios claros con respecto al tamaño de la muestra y la interpretación de la intensidad de los parámetros. Tampoco se ha desarrollado un sistema de representación gráfica con esta técnica de análisis.
