  • Null designs form a vector space and there are only finite number of minimal null designs(up to scalar multiple), hence it is natural to look at the convex polytopes of minimal null designs. For example, when t = 0, k = 1, the convex polytope of minimal null designs is the polytope of roofs of type An. In this article, we look at the convex polytopes of minimal null designs and find many general properties on the vertices, edges, dimension, and some structural properties that might help to understand the structure of polytopes for big n, t through the structure of smaller n, t.

  • Null designs on the poset of dual polar spaces are considered. A poset of dual polar spaces is the set of isotropic subspaces of a finite vector space equipped with a nondegenerate bilinear form, ordered by inclusion. We show that the minimum number of isotropic subspaces to construct a nonzero null t-design is ${\prod}^{t}_{i=0}(1+q^{i})$ for the types $B_N,\;D_N$, whereas for the case of type $C_N$, more isotropic subspaces are needed.

  • Confounding techniques have to be used repeatedly in the situations where it is necessary to perform only 2 runs under homogeneous conditions in $2^m$ factorial and fractional factorial experiment. Combinations of confounded $2^m$ factorial and fractional factorial designs enable the estimation of all main effects and all of or a part of 2 factor interaction effects. Defining contrast are used for our designs and treatment combinations of designs to be run are presented.

  • Epistasis that may explain a large portion of the phenotypic variation for complex economic traits of animals has been ignored in many genetic association studies. A Baysian method was introduced to draw inferences about multilocus genotypic effects based on their marginal posterior distributions by a Gibbs sampler. A simulation study was conducted to provide statistical powers under various unbalanced designs by using this method. Data were simulated by combined designs of number of loci, within genotype variance, and sample size in unbalanced designs with or without null combined genotype cells. Mean empirical statistical power was estimated for testing posterior mean estimate of combined genotype effect. A practical example for obtaining empirical statistical power estimates with a given sample size was provided under unbalanced designs. The empirical statistical powers would be useful for determining an optimal design when interactive associations of multiple loci with complex phenotypes were examined.

  • In this paper we consider the setting where a group of n judges are to independently rank a series of κ objects, but the intended complete rankings are not realized and we are faced with analyzing randomly incomplete rank vectors. We discuss some tests based on Friedman statistics on the designs completed through rank imputation schemes suggested by Lordo and Wolfe (1994) and evaluate them on the basis of simulated power studies, constructing their appropriate null distributions.

  • For testing $\beta_i=\beta, i=1,...,k$, in the regression model $Y_{ij} = \alpha_i + \beta_ix_{ij} + e_{ij}, j=1,...,n_i$, a simple and robust test based on Kendall's tau is proposed. Its asymptotic distribution is proved to be chi-square under the null hypthesis and noncentral chi-square under an appropriate sequence of alternatives. For the optimal designs, the asymptotic relative efficiency of the proposed procedure with respect to the least squares procedure is the same as that of the Wilcoxon test with respect to the t-test.

  • FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) processor is one of the key components in the implementation of OFDM systems for many wireless standards such as IEEE 802.22. To improve the performances of FFT processors, various studies have been carried out to reduce the complexities of multipliers, memory interface, control schemes and so on. While the number of FFT stages increases logarithmically $log_2N$) as the FFT point-size (N) increases, the number of required registers (or, memories) increases linearly. In large point-size FFT designs, the registers occupy more than 70% of the chip area. In this paper, to reduce the memory size of IFFT for OFDM transmitters, we propose a new IFFT design method based on a combined mapping of modulated data, pilot and null signals. The proposed method focuses on reducing the sizes of the registers in the first two stages of the IFFT architectures since the first two stages require 75% of the total registers. By simulations of 2048-point IFFT design for cognitive radio systems, it is shown that the proposed IFFT design method achieves more than 38.5% area reduction compared with previous IFFT designs.

  • This presents the preliminary results from work in progress of a paired study of the acquisition of voiceless stops by Spanish speakers learning English, and American English speakers learning Spanish. For this study the hypothesis was that the American speakers would have no difficulty suppressing the aspiration in Spanish unaspirated stops; the Spanish speakers would have difficulty acquiring the aspiration necessary for English voiceless stops, according to Eckman's Markedness Differential Hypothesis. The null hypothesis was proved. All subjects were given the same set of disyllabic real words of English and Spanish in carrier phrases. The tokens analyzed in this report are limited to word-initial voiceless stops, followed by a low back vowel in stressed syllables. Tokens were randomized and then arranged in a list with the words appearing three separate times. Aspiration was measured from the burst to the onset of voicing(VOT). Both the first language (Ll) tokens and second language (L2) tokens were compared for each speaker and between the two groups of language speakers. Results indicate that the Spanish speakers, as a group, were able to reach the accepted target language VOT of English, but English speakers were not able to reach the accepted range for Spanish, in spite of statistically significant changes of p<.OOl by speakers in both groups of learners. A closer analysis of the speech samples revealed wide variability within the speech of native speakers of English. Not only is variability in English due to the wide range of VOT (120 msecs. for English labials, for example) but individual speakers showed different patterns. These results are revealing for the demands requied in experimental designs and the number of speakers and tokens requied for an adequate description of different languages. In addition, a simple report of means will not distinguish the speakers and the respective language learning situation; measurements must also include the RANGE of acceptability of VOT for phonetic segments. This has immediate consequences for the learning and teaching of foreign languages involving aspirated stops. In addition, the labelling of spoken language in speech technology is shown to be inadequate without a fuller mathematical description.
