The application of logistic regression in modeling of survival chances of HIV-positive patients under highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART): A case of Nyakach District …
(Basic Research Journal, 2014)
In Kenya the number of persons requiring antiretroviral Therapy (ART) in 2012 was over 90,000 while globally
more than 1.4 million were under ART in the year 2012. Though ART treatment has decreased mortality of HIV
associated ...
Modeling trailer-traffic flow on a Kenyan highway
(2014)
Traffic flow modelling is studied in order to ease congestion on roads. However, congestion is also caused by irregular occurrences, such as traffic accidents, poor roads, vehicle disablement, spilled loads and hazardous ...
On necessary Conditions for scalars
(Hikari Ltd, 2014)
In this paper, we give a characterization of scalar operators. In particular we show that a densely defined closed linear operator H acting on a reflexive Banach space X is scalar if it is of (0, 1) type R and f (H)≤ f∞ ...
BUILDING STRENGTH FROM COMPROMISE; A CASE STUDY OF FIVE YEAR COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE STATISTICAL SERVICES CENTRE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF READING, UK AND MASENO UNIVERSITY, KENYA
(ICOTS, 2014)
Statistics teaching and practice at Maseno University has benefited immensely from its collaboration with the Statistical Services Centre (SSC) at the University of Reading. The SSC, a self-sustaining entity providing ...
A Probabilistic Estimation of the Basic Reproduction Number: A Case of Control Strategy of Pneumonia
(cience Publishing Group, 2014)
Deterministic models have been used in the past to understand the epidemiology of infectious diseases, most importantly to estimate the basic reproduction number, Ro by using disease parameters. However, the approach ...
Parameter Driven Dynamics of Trypanosomiasis in a Cattle Population
(HIKARI Ltd, 2014)
In this paper we study the disease dynamics of trypanosomiasis in a
cattle population. The compartmental model presented includes the
wild animal population which provides an alternative feeding source
for the tsetse ...
On the norm of elementary operator
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2014-07-07)
The norm of an elementary operator has been studied by many mathematicians. Varied results
have been established especially on the lower bound of this norm. Here, we attempt the same
problem for finite dimensional operators.

Jumps in the Kenyan Interest Rates
(INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENCES AND ENGINEERING, 2014-11-11)
— In this paper, we use the Bernoulli Jump Diffusion
(BJD) process to test for the existence and probability of jumps
in the Kenyan interest rates. We test these using the Maximum
Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method on ...
Option Pricing of an Asset with Seasonal and Periodic Supply
(International Journal of Multidisciplinary Sciences and Engineering, 2014-12-12)
In option pricing the rate of change of asset price with time can be viewed to be directly proportional to the Walrasian [6] excess demand. Scholars such as Jacques [3] and Onyango [4], have used the excess demand concept ...
