Some Statistical Contributions To The Analysis Of Human Genome Diversity And Evolution., Analabha Basu Dr. Aug 2004

Some Statistical Contributions To The Analysis Of Human Genome Diversity And Evolution., Analabha Basu Dr.

Doctoral Theses

The work embodied in this thesis pertains to human population genetics. In particular, the overarching goals of this thesis are to contribute to the understanding of genomic diversity of human populations and to the development of statistical methods for making inferences in genome diversity studies. With these two goals in mind, we have carried out a detailed statistical analysis of genomic data on a large number of ethnic populations of India, generated in the laboratory of the Anthropology & Human Genetics Unit, Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata. Additionally, wherever relevant, we have compared our data with those collated from the published …


Contributions To Emerging Techniques In Survey Sampling., Sanghamitra Pal Dr. Jun 2004

Contributions To Emerging Techniques In Survey Sampling., Sanghamitra Pal Dr.

Doctoral Theses

This dissertation contains seven Chapters. The contents in the respective Chapters may be briefly recounted as follows.A topic of classical interest in survey sampling is how to ensure the existence of a uniformly non-negative (UNN) unbiased estimator for the mean square error (MSE) of a homogeneous linear estimator (HLE) for a finite survey population total. Hájek (1958), Vijayan (1975), Rao and Vijayan (1977) and Rao (1979) developed a number of results which boil down to the folowing as narrated in the monograph by Chaudhuri and Stenger (1992).If there exist non-zero constants w, and the unknown values y, of the variable …


Some Studies On Uncertainty Management In Dynamical System Using Fuzzy Techniques With Applications., Kausik Majumdar Dr. May 2004

Some Studies On Uncertainty Management In Dynamical System Using Fuzzy Techniques With Applications., Kausik Majumdar Dr.

Doctoral Theses

Unceriain information processing by fuzzy if-then rules has received a lot of attention. Here we have taken a different path to model a system. about which we do not have precise information namely. modelling the system by fuzy valued functions without resorting to fuzzy if-then rules. As a result. the phase (state) space of the system becomes a full set and the underlying fuzzy mapping becomes a fuzzy attainability vet mappine. A fuzzy phase space is a collection of special class of furry subsets (fuzsy points) of R&for some positive integral n. Let the collection of all fuzr, real numbers …


Intersection Properties Of Balls In Banach Spaces And Related Topics., Sudipta Dutta Dr. Feb 2004

Intersection Properties Of Balls In Banach Spaces And Related Topics., Sudipta Dutta Dr.

Doctoral Theses

In the first part of this chapter, we explain in general terms the background and the main theme of this thesis and provide a chapter-wise summary of its principal results. In the second part, we introduce some notations and preliminaries that will be used in the subsequent chapters.As a prototype of the properties we will study in this thesis, let us call a closed linear subspace Y of a Banach space X a (P)-subspace of X if Y has a certain property P as a subspace of X. If a Banach space X, in its canonical embedding, is a (P)-subspace …
