Breast cancer (BC) patients need traditional treatment as well as long term monitoring through an adaptive feedback-oriented treatment mechanism. Here, we present the findings of our 31-week long field study and deployment of e-ESAS - the first mobile-based remote symptom monitoring system (RSMS) de...

This study explores the effect of fintech-driven inclusive finance on the profitability of banks using an unbalanced panel dataset from 660 banks across 40 developing countries between 2011 and 2021. We start with a fixed-effect estimate and subsequently validate our main findings using two-stage le...

An experiment for diversity analysis with 66 genotypes of lablab bean (Lablab purpureus L.) was conducted at Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) during 2009-2010. Data were collected from all experimental plants on the following characters: days to fir...

Sample size determination is a prerequisite for statistical surveys. A comprehensive overview of the Bayesian approach for computation of the sample size, and a comparison with classical approaches, is presented. Two surveys are taken as example to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of each appr...

The objectives of this study are to reveal the regional variation and to identify the responsible factors for making the transition of rainfall status in two consecutive days in Bangladesh at three selected regions. The covariate-dependent first-order Markov models have been used to find out how the...

This paper describes the modified maximum likelihood estimator (MMLE) of location and scale parameters based on selected ranked set sampling (SRSS) for normal, uniform and two-parameter exponential distributions. For these distributions, the MMLE of location and scale parameters for SRSS data were c...

In this paper, we present e-ESAS, a mobile phone based remote monitoring tool for patients with palliative care need, carefully designed for developing countries. Most of the current remote monitoring systems are complex, obtrusive and expensive resulting in a system unsuitable to deploy in low-inco...

In this paper, some test procedures for scale parameters of exponential and rectangular distributions involving the median ranked set sampling (MRSS) method are discussed. The necessary tables for the critical regions for the suggested tests are supplied. The power functions of the tests are compare...
