Abstract

Modified Cosinor-Analyses method used in processing of biorhythmological data is considered. Advantages of modified method and its practical results are shown. Assumption of oscillations with the periods of 4-6 hours in humans daily physiological activity is confirmed.

A new method for the estimation of the aqueous solubility of organic compounds.

Using a semiempirical quantum chemical method (AM1), various properties (dipole moment, charge distribution, geometrical parameters, etc.) of 331 compounds were calculated. Various linear functions of these properties and their combinations were fitted to reproduce experimental aqueous solubilities. An 18-parameter function was derived that is reasonably simple, yet appears to be able to describe the aqueous solubilities of a wide range of organic compounds. The parameter set is essentially the one used in a recent similar study of octanol-water partition coefficients. The derived equation has important predictive value.

Generalized multiple-regression techniques with interaction and nonlinearity for system identification in biological treatment processes.

A class of multiple regression models, called "generalized multiple-regression" (GMR) is proposed. GMR has the advantages of being easy and rapid to fit, and uses standard multilinear regression software. It has an advantage over ARIMA models in modeling nonlinearity and linear and nonlinear interactions among variables. Its main disadvantage is that, if there are many independent variables, the reduction of degrees of freedom may be important. It is less parsimonious than other models, but availability of increased computational power makes this not a serious disadvantage. The GMR models are compared to autoregressive transfer function models and feedforward back propagation neural network models. In the case of modeling effluent volatile suspended solids, GMR models were superior to both linear autoregressive models and neural network models. The neural network models did, however, outperform the linear models. In the case of modeling sludge volume index, both GMR and the neural network model were unable to improve upon ARIMA models. It was concluded that ARIMA models may, in some cases, produce the most parsimonious model, but in other cases they may miss important process behaviors. The GMR models showed robust capability to describe complex data.
