Proposed Two-Parameter Estimator for Estimating Linear Regression Model and Comparing It with Some Other Estimators

In this paper, a new two-parameter estimator was proposed to estimate the parameters of the linear regression model that has the ability to face the problem of Multicollinearity based on the previous information about the parameters to be estimated and this estimator was compared with the two-parameter estimator of the linear regression model of Kaciranlar and the two-parameter estimator of the linear regression model (Lokman et al. [1]) using the mean square error criterion (MSE) for each model by conducting Monte-Carlo simulation to study the behavior of the proposed estimator. It was concluded that the proposed method is better than the rest of the estimation methods because it achieved the lowest comparison criteria, and in the case of high Multicollinearity between the explanatory variables, the proposed method was very effective in solving this problem. Data representing (100) observations of the number of women with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) for the years (2020-2023) from the Karbala Holy Health Department were used, which represents the dependent variable (y) and a group of variables affecting the incidence of the disease, with nineteen variables. It was concluded that irritable bowel syndrome among women is decreasing, as the predictive values ​​according to the proposed method are appropriate for the estimated values ​​during the next five years.

This article focuses on improving the accuracy and efficiency of multimodal human motion analysis using advanced techniques. Initially, Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) were used for skeletal enhancement, and then Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) was applied on the enhanced images to check the quality Joint-level. Limb-level, Temporal, Statistical Features are effectively recovered from contrast enhancing images. Furthermore, with the selected optimal features acquired from PutterFish Customized Serval Optimizer (PFCSO), the RehabNet++ architecture that makes the human movement assessment has been trained. This PFCSO model has been developed based on the inspiration acquired from the Pufferfish Optimization Algorithm (POA) and the Serval Optimization algorithm (SOA), respectively. The RehabNet++ architecture includes an optimized Multilayer Perceptron (O-MLP), STR-ResNet architecture, Attention-based Convolutional Neural Networks and Transfer Learning. The O-MLP model has been formulated by optimizing the hidden layers of MLP using the PFCSO model. In addition, Grad-CAM visualization is included to provide a graphical description for model selection. A comparative study has been conducted to test the proposed deep learning algorithm against the original methods using the Kimore dataset. This analysis is implemented in PYTHON and is dedicated to multimodal human motion analysis.
