Abstract

Procedures for determining sample size in multivariate repeated measures experiments are discussed. The focus is on designs with either one group or two independent groups of subjects, the point of departure being multivariate repeated measures. Determination of the minimum sample size required is based on power considerations associated with Hotelling's T2 and the F-test. We first consider procedures for determining sample size assuming an arbitrary covariance matrix. The special case where we assume that the transformed data have a multivariate spherical covariance matrix is also considered. Tables of the minimum sample sizes required for several hypotheses from multivariate analysis are presented.

Superfluidity versus disorder in the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation.

We study the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation (DNLS) in an annular geometry with on-site defects. The dynamics of a traveling plane-wave maps onto an effective nonrigid pendulum Hamiltonian. The different regimes include the complete reflection and refocusing of the initial wave, solitonic structures, and a superfluid state. In the superfluid regime, which occurs above a critical value of nonlinearity, a plane wave travels coherently through the randomly distributed defects. This superfluidity criterion for the DNLS is analogous to (yet very different from) the Landau superfluidity criteria in translationally invariant systems. Experimental implications for the physics of Bose-Einstein condensate gases trapped in optical potentials and of arrays of optical fibers are discussed.

Parametric receiver operating characteristic curve analysis using mathematica.

Several computer programs have been written to perform receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, and are available in the public domain. Here, the author provides the theory and description for 'rocMath', a Mathematica program that performs parametric ROC curve analysis. The 'rocMath' program has some advantages over other ROC curve programs, including the ability to provide, through optional arguments: (a) user-specified pointwise confidence limits, as well as default 95% limits, on ROC curve area and on true-positive rates; (b) ROC curve plots with data points, a fitted curve, and user-specified pointwise confidence bands; and (c) ROC curve areas, tables, and plots based on a logistic distribution as well as on a standard normal distribution. In addition, the code of 'rocMath' can be modified to address additional ROC curve applications. The program uses Mathematica's ability to operate on purely symbolic as well as numeric data to achieve substantial coding efficiency. Limitations of the 'rocMath' program are also discussed.

[Determination of the coordinates in the stereotactic computed tomography: simplification of the conventional method].

A simplification of the graphic and arithmetical method traditionally used for determination of the target stereotactic coordinates in the computed tomography is presented. The arithmetical calculation, besides simpler, is theoretically more accurate for using a real point of the stereotactic space. The proposed diagram (graphic method) presents the advantage of allowing the determination of the target stereotactic coordinates independently of the computed tomographic image size.
