Abstract:

This study was motivated by the latest revision of the mathematics syllabuses of the Cape Education Department. The most important changes to content in the Senior Secondary Mathematics Syllabus (July 1984) are the introduction of calculus and linear programming, the substitution of a section on analytical geometry for vector algebra and the recall of the remainder and factor theorems. The way in which these changes were introduced left the task of integrating them into the teaching process in the hands of individual teachers. This is a task of extreme importance.

Thesis (MscEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Outliers may be defined as observations that are sufficiently aberrant to arouse the suspicion of the analyst as to their origin. They could be the result of human error, in which case they should be corrected, but they may also be an interesting exception, and this would deserve further investigation. Identification of outliers typically consists of an informal inspection of a plot of the data, but this is unreliable for dimensions greater than two. A formal procedure for detecting outliers allows for consistency when

Abstract:

Using a geometric approach to best linear unbiased estimation in the general linear model, the additional sum of squares principle, used to generate decompositions, can be generalized allowing for an efficient treatment of augmented linear models. The notion of the admissibility of a new variable is useful in augmenting models. Best linear unbiased estimation and tests of hypotheses can be performed through transformations and reparametrizations of the general linear model. The theory of outliers and influential observations can be generalized so as to be applicable for the general univariate

Abstract:

In this Master’s thesis, diﬀerent models for outlier detection in ﬁnancial time series are examined. The ﬁnancial time series are price series such as index prices or asset prices. Outliers are, in this thesis, deﬁned as extreme and false points, but this deﬁnition is also investigated and revised. Two diﬀerent time series models are examined: an autoregressive (AR) and a generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic (GARCH) time series model, as well as one test statistic method based on the GARCH model. Additionally, a nonparametric model is examined, which utilizes kernel density e

Abstract:

Identifying non-tracking individuals in a population of longitudinal data has many applications as well as complications. The analysis of longitudinal data is a special study in itself. There are several accepted methods, of those we chose a two-stage random effects model coupled with the Estimation Maximization Algorithm (E-M Algorithm) . Our project consisted of first estimating population parameters using the previously mentioned methods. The Mahalanobis distance was then used to sequentially identify and eliminate non-trackers from the population. Computer simulations were run in order to

Abstract:

This work discusses alternative methods to detect outliers in spatial point patterns. Outliers are defined based on location only and also with respect to associated variables. Throughout the thesis we discuss five case studies, three of them come from experiments with spiders and bees, and the other two are data from earthquakes in a certain region. One of the main conclusions is that when detecting outliers from the point of view of location we need to take into consideration both the degree of clustering of the events and the context of the study.

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 140-149).<br>Identifying outliers and/or influential observations is a fundamental step in any statistical analysis, since their presence is likely to lead to erroneous results. Numerous measures have been proposed for detecting outliers and assessing the influence of observations on least squares regression results. Since outliers can arise in different ways, the above mentioned measures are based on motivational arguments and they are designed to measure the influence of observations on different aspects of various regression results.

The thesis deals with some of the anomalies,that affect the predictive performance of univariate time series. This project should help to improve the forecasts made and should also assist those engaged in time series forecasting in real life situations in industry,government and elsewhere. The problem of testing a set of data for outliers is not new in statistics,methods having been proposed for the general linear model. However, there are very few papers on testing time series data for outliers. The greater part of the thesis is concerned with the effects of outliers on forecasts, statistical

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to examine clustering based outlier detection algorithms on their ability to detect abnormal events in flight traffic. A nominal model is trained on a data-set containing only flights which are labeled as normal. A detection scoring function based on the nominal model is used to decide if a new and in forehand unseen data-point behaves like the nominal model or not. Due to the unknown structure of the data-set three different clustering algorithms are examined for training the nominal model, K-means, Gaussian Mixture Model and Spectral Clustering.

Abstract:

During the COVID-19 pandemic, customer shopping habits have changed. Some industries experienced an abrupt shift during the pandemic outbreak while others navigate in new normal states. For some merchants, the highly-uncertain new phenomena of COVID-19 expresses as outliers in time series of volume of sales. As forecasting models tend to replicate past behavior of a series, outliers complicates the procedure of forecasting; the abnormal events tend to unreliably replicate in forecasts of the subsequent year(s). In this thesis, we investigate how to forecast volume of sales during the abnormal

Jump-diffusion processes often model financial time series as they can simulate the random jumps that they frequently exhibit. These jumps can be seen as anomalies and are essential for financial analysis and model building, making them vital to detect.The realized variation, realized bipower variation, and realized semi-variation were tested to see if one could use them to detect jumps in a jump-diffusion process and if anomaly detection algorithms can use them as features to improve their accuracy.

The teaching of probability in schools provides a good opportunity for examining how a new topic is integrated into a school curriculum. Furthermore, because probabilistic thinking is quite different from the deterministic thinking traditionally found in mathematics classrooms, such an examination is particularly able to highlight significant forces operating within educational practice. After six chapters which describe relevant aspects of the philosophical, cultural, and intellectual environment within which probability has been taught, a 'Broad-Spectrum Ecological Model' is developed to ex

The second-order least-squares estimator (SLSE), which was proposed by Wang (2003), is asymptotically more efficient than the least-squares estimator (LSE) if the third moment of the error distribution is nonzero. However, it is not robust against outliers. In this paper. we propose two robust second-order least-squares estimators (RSLSE) for linear regression models. RSLSE-I and RSLSE-II, where RSLSE-I is robust against X-outliers and RSLSE-II is robust. against X-outliers and Y-outliers.

Abstract:

Classic parametric statistical tests, like the analysis of variance (ANOVA), are powerful tools used for comparing population means. These tests produce accurate results provided the data satisfies underlying assumptions such as homoscedasticity and balancedness, otherwise biased results are obtained. However, these assumptions are rarely satisfied in real-life. Alternative procedures must be explored. This thesis aims at investigating the impact of heteroscedasticity and unbalancedness on effect sizes in two-way fixed-effects ANOVA models. A real-life dataset, from which three different
