Analytical Study on Date Production in the Governorates of Iraq Using a Split Plot Design
type: item
description: Dates are among the most important national resources due to their numerous health benefits and significant economic value. Recently, their importance has declined due to a decrease in production quantities. This can be attributed to several factors, including a lack of attention to date palm cultivation and the circumstances experienced by some governorates, which led to a clear variation in production between them. Therefore, this research focuses on comparing the central and southern governorates of Iraq, namely Diala, Baghdad, Babylon, Kerbala, Wasit, Al-Najaf, Al-Qadisiya, Al-Muthanna, Thi-Qar, Mysan, and Basrah. The research compares the average production of each date palm variety (Zahdi, Khistawi, Sayer, Khadrawi, Hillawi, Deary, and others) over consecutive periods (2016-2020). The split-plot design was employed, a factorial empirical design that includes two or more factors. The research concluded that there are significant differences between the Iraqi governorates in terms of date palm production quantities and varieties.

The Use of Cone Projections and Quadratic programming in Estimation of Constrained Regression
type: item
description: Statisticians often use regression models like parametric, nonparametric, and semi-parametric models to represent economic and social phenomena. These models explain the relationships between different variables in these phenomena. One of the parametric model techniques is conic projection regression. It helps to find the most important slopes for multidimensional data using prior information about the regression's parameters to estimate the most efficient estimator. R algorithms, written in the R language, simplify this complex method. These algorithms are based on quadratic programming, which makes the estimations more accurate.

Exchange Balance Rules in Iraqi Trade Law No. 30 of 1984
type: item
description: Is that the requirements of speed in commercial work raised fears of exposing private interests to danger, so the importance of having controls also emerged, which take into account at the same time the necessity of speed and preserving the interests of others. From here came the idea of ​​balance between the parties to a commercial transaction, and this applies to the morphological rules for commercial papers, or what is expressed as the exchange law, which regulates the provisions of commercial papers, as the Iraqi legislator made special rules regulating the provisions of commercial papers and everything related to them in Articles 39-184, and these rules are governed, in addition to the principles referred to above, by other principles, including formality, independence of signatures, strictness on the debtor to fulfill the amount of the commercial paper, and the principle of self-sufficiency. These last principles, in their entirety, are considered a departure from the general rules in civil law. The importance of the research lies in clarifying the legislative rules that enable knowing the rules of balance between the parties to the morphological relationship in the face of the strictness of the rules against some of the parties to this relationship, as we found it necessary to clarify these rules and what is decided in the interest of any party of the morphological obligation and at any stage of the process. Commitment stages can be applied. Our research also contributed to clarifying the concept and specificity of morphological rules, the legal basis of the morphological obligation, and what are the most important characteristics that characterize this obligation, and finally explaining the morphological rules established for the benefit of each party to the morphological obligation.

Intelligent Methods for Estimating Hidden Markov Model Parameters
type: item
description: Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are stochastic models that were initially applied as statistical models for speech and handwriting recognition because of their great ability to adapt to the problem and their skill in dealing with sequential signals. With the development of techniques, tools, and methods for estimating the parameters of the hidden Markov model, attention may turn to smart methods due to their importance and wide use among researchers. Two algorithms were taken, namely the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm and the Bees Colony Optimization (BCO) algorithm. They were applied to an important field at present, which is cyber security, where we addressed one of the threats that pose a danger, which is the Advanced Persistent Threat (APT). The results showed the flexibility in dealing with this type of algorithm for cyber security problems by clarifying the nature of the transitions between the two model states and the emissions that come from each hidden state. It is worth noting that a comparison of the results was made using the two comparison standards, Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), and we found that the best method was the results of the bee colony algorithm.

Utilizing the Error Correction Model to Investigate the Impact of Fluctuations in Bank Deposits on the Money Supply
type: item
description: This paper assesses the impact of changes and fluctuations in bank deposits on the money supply in Iraq. Employing the research constructs an Error Correction Model (ECM) using monthly time series data from 2010 to 2015. The analysis begins with the Phillips-Perron unit root test to ascertain the stationarity of the time series and the Engle and Granger cointegration test to examine the existence of a long-term relationship. Nonparametric regression functions are estimated using two methods: Smoothing Spline and M-smoothing. The results indicate that the M-smoothing approach is the most effective, achieving the shortest adjustment period and the highest adjustment ratio for short-term disturbances, thereby facilitating a return to the long-term equilibrium.

Models of Anomalous Diffusion and its analysis
type: item
description: The anomalous diffusion is characterized by deviation from Gaussian statistics and the absence of a linear time dependency in the mean square displacement. This study investigates anomalous diffusion processes that exhibit a power-law growth in mean square displacement as time progresses. The first stage is to create the model using random methods, that is, by using random walks. The following statement describes a continuous-time random walk model represented by a series of convolution-type integral equations depicting probability density functions. Fractional differential equations for time and space are derived from the master equations by choosing probability density functions with infinite first and/or second moments. The obtained model equations are analyzed with respect to elementary boundary value problems in constrained fields. The main focus is on studying elementary boundary value problems related to the generalized fractional time diffusion equation, especially using the fractional Caputo derivative. This equation applies a well-established maximum principle to stochastic partial differential equations of the elliptic and parabolic type (SPDEs). This concept is used to make preliminary estimates of the answer before using it to prove the uniqueness of the solution. To prove the existence of a solution, a clearly defined generalized solution is first generated using the spectroscopic method. Under certain additional circumstances, a comprehensive solution may be considered a solution in the traditional sense.

A New Statistical Formula for Estimating the Breast Cancer's Median Lethal Dose based on Inverse Weibull Model
type: item
description: This paper estimates the median lethal dose of a two-replicate multivariate biological experiment through a new statistical formula related to the best model among eleven models constructed to describe the relationship of dose-response and time based on the inverse Weibull. The real biological experiment focused on using actual data to biologically cure breast cancer using therapeutic zinc selenide, produced either by a plasma-physically approach or by employing an environmental plant extract (Calgan plant). The unknown parameters associated with the eleven models are estimated using two traditional estimation methods: ordinary least squares and maximum likelihood. Because these estimates could not be determined directly, the Newton-Raphson iterative technique is used. The mean squared error is used to choose the best model. Then, at successive time points, the breast cancer's median lethal dose is calculated. The results clearly show that the mean square error values of maximum likelihood are always lower than those of the ordinary least squares, and the median lethal dose exhibits a decreasing relationship over time. Further, the new procedure for measuring the median lethal dose allows for several estimates with subsequent periods, which allows for several effective concentrations of 50% in the experimental units.

Classification of Iraqi Children According to Nutritional Status Using Fuzzy Decision Tree
type: item
description: The classification is one of the essential tools used in medical statistics to classify the nutritional status of children under five years. A good nutritional status is necessary for children's health and has a sicnificant role in the child's normal development. Likewise, poor nutritional status is considered a serious disease for this age group and needs attention from child health specialists. Doctors face great difficulty in determining the nutritional status due to the state of uncertainty in the incidence of this disease or the ambiguity in the variables and characteristics of that phenomenon. The fuzzy sets theory was applied to classify the nutritional status of children under the age of five years using fuzzy logic, where the fuzzy decision tree method was employed, and a tree was created for each age group (male, female) based on the linguistic variables (weight, height), and body mass index for the classification categories. In this study, the nutritional status of children was classified and the groups were identified more accurately to reduce the chances of misdiagnosis and provide them with more accurate appropriate treatment to improve the health level of children to build a more immune society with a good health level. The study dealt with a sample of (16487) Iraqi children under 5 years of age, the number of males (8427) and the number of females (8060), divided according to age into 12 categories or groups. The results showed the age groups She was of normal weight in varying proportions.

Studying the Effect of Spatial Variable on Kidney Failure Data in Baghdad for the SAC Model
type: item
description: In this paper, the effect of the spatial variable of kidney failure in Baghdad is studied using the general spatial autoregressive model (SAC), where the model was applied to the regular and modified spatial adjacency matrices and according to the adjacency criterion (Rook), using the estimation method represented by the maximum likelihood method, as it included the dependent variable (Y) is the number of people with creatinine in the blood, and the explained variables represent their levels after agreement with the specialized doctors as follows: (X1: Age, X2: Diabetes , X3:High blood pressure, X4: Gender, X5: Smoking). The most important results were that the data suffers from the effect of the spatial variable. It turns out that the modified spatial adjacency matrix (Rook) (Wadj) is the best in order to obtain the lowest standard value, and that the variables (X2, X3, X5) have a significant impact on Kidney failure disease in Baghdad.

Time Statistical Analysis in the Study of Population Change Process
type: item
description: The optimal population and the right political approach to achieving it are today a big concern of governments, especially developing countries. The uncontrolled increase in population can pose a variety of challenges for any country. In the meantime, unlike educational and health restrictions, one of the most important issues on which population change can be problematic is the economic path. Iraq will be a developing country due to the war and the problems it has faced in recent decades. So in this article, we examined the impact of population age structure on economic growth and in the period 2019-2021. The time series was used to do this research. The results of this study indicate that the ratio of population dependence, which indicates the state of population structure, has a negative and significant impact on economic growth.

Using Statistical Non-Linear Filters for Gaussian Carina Nebula Image Denoising
type: item
description: Noise affects images by distorting the features or reducing the required information. Gaussian noise is one of many types of noise that are characterized by normal distribution's statistical properties. Removing or reducing this noise is an essential step in image processing. James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a crucial tool for advancing our understanding of the universe across various domains. The images taken by the (JWST) are not only scientifically valuable for advancing our understanding but also have the potential to captivate and inspire people around the world. In this paper, we introduce several nonlinear filters, including Non-Local Mean (NLM) which gives weights to the pixels based on the distance from the noisy pixel. A Bilateral filter that gives weights for each pixel and then calculates the weighted distance. Propose a nonlinear filter depends on obtaining an appropriate smoothing parameter for the image by using the plug-in method and using it to estimate the image's density function, then using an appropriate noise reduction method on the estimated density function to extract the denoised image by removing the Gaussian noise from the Carina Nebula Image, the first image taken by (JWST) on 12 July 2022. The importance of this image lies in its potential to advance scientific knowledge, showcase technological prowess, inspire the public, and contribute to the broader mission of exploring and understanding the cosmos, Also, since it is the farthest point in the universe that humanity has been able to reach or take pictures of, it is therefore essential to preserve its quality to study all its elements or details. These nonlinear filters were therefore selected to highlight the significance of selecting the right technique that can handle, process, and preserve as many details as possible. They also elucidate the degree of advancement achieved in denoising and the distinction between the classical filters and the more sophisticated ones that have evo…

A Proposed Bayesian Estimation of Transitional Probability for a Markov Chain with Random Times via Swarm Algorithm
type: item
description: The transition matrix estimators of the Markov chain are not accurate and the transition matrix is considered given. There are many methods that are used to estimate the transition probabilities matrix for different cases, the most famous of which is the Maximum Likelihood Method, in order to find a good and new estimator for the transition probabilities matrix of the Markov chain, a method was proposed, which is a modification of the Bayes method, to reach the transition probabilities with the least variance. This method assumes that the values of in the initial probability are estimated by two methods: Maximum Likelihood Method (MLE), and the algorithm of particle swarm (PSO), The Escherichia Coli (E.Coli) gene chain was chosen as an applied aspect of the study due to its importance in medical research and for the purpose of discovering and manufacturing treatments by knowing the final form of its gene chain. After testing the E.Coli gene chain, it was found that is represents a Markov chain, and then both the transition probabilities matrix and the transition probabilities variance were estimated, and it was found that the proposed method for transitional probabilities is better than the method of greatest possibility depending on the variance.

Comparison of CNN and SVM Approaches for Classifying Time Series of Caenorhabditis Elegans Motion
type: item
description: Studying the motion of some roundworms types such as Caenorhabditis elegans (CE) is important to identify the actions and reactions and their effects of worm’s life. In this study, the time series of CE motion represented by the angles of wave-motion between 1 to 177 degrees will be the case study. Each observation of this time series is a recorded frame (0.5 second) of 2.5 hours video of CE motion. A convolutional neural network (CNN) as one of deep learning techniques will be used to classify CE motion as dependent variable in binary cases based on the images of the angles of wave-motion as explanatory variable. The images of motion angles are imagined and designed by two dimensions image corresponding to every observation. These images combined into 4-d image (four dimensions matrix) to represent univariate explanatory variable. Support vector machine (SVM) will be also used to classify the angles of CE. In these types of data, the nonlinearity and uncertainty will be the most probably problems as reasons for in accurate classifications. CNN and SVM used with this type of dataset to improve the classification results. The results of comparisons explain that CNN approach outperforms SVM absolutely. In conclusion, CNN approach can be used to classify this type of time series with accurate results.
