THE METHOD OF STANDING TREES ALLOCATION TO DIFFERENT BIOSOCIAL CLASSES
Journal Title: Colloquium Biometricum; Colloquium Biometricum (Online) - Year 2015, Vol 45, Issue
Abstract
The discriminant analysis method was used for the purpose of allocation trees to Kraft classes. The Scots pine trees were used to determine discriminant functions. Only traits which can be measured on the standing trees were taken into consideration. They included height, breast height diameter inside and without bark, basal area, double bark thickness, 5 and 10 years increment in breast, height diameter, tree slenderness. Some sets of uncorrelated traits were taken into account to select the better discriminant functions guided by the minimum of erroneous classification probability. The discriminant model based on the height, 10-years increment at the breast high diameter, basal area and slenderness, has proven to be the best for grouping the trees.

IMPACT OF ALTERNATIVE DISTRIBUTIONS ON QUANTILE-QUANTILE NORMALITY PLOT
Many statistical programs use normal quantile-quantile plots for geometrical visualization of experimental data sets. In the paper we observe how normal quantile-quantile points behave when data sets come from alternativ...
CHANGES OF CHOSEN PROPERTIES OF SANDY SOIL IN RESULT OF COMPOST APPLICATION
In this paper, the analysis of variance of the results of experiment conducted in laboratory conditions is described. The objective of this study was to evaluate changes in soil reaction, hydrolytic acidity, sum of bases...
RELATIONS BETWEEN TERNARY DESIGNS AND D-OPTIMAL WEIGHING DESIGNS WITH NON-NEGATIVE CORRELATED ERRORS
This work was intended as an attempt at motivating to increase the list of possible classes in that we are able to construct optimal plans of experiments. Here, we consider the criterion of D-optimality. We introduce the...
A METHOD FOR ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA FROM FIELD AND BREWERY TRIALS
In the paper a method for statistical analysis of data with brewing barley is proposed which allows to use information from designing a field experiment. The experiment was conducted during the growing seasons 2008–2010...
D-OPTIMAL DESIGNS WITH NEGATIVE CORRELATED ERRORS BASED ON TERNARY DESIGNS: CONSTRUCTION
Here, we study new construction methods of the regular D-optimal chemical balance weighing design with equally negative correlated errors. The construction method is based on the set of the incidence matrices of the tern...
