The Design of a Low-Cost Traffic Calming Radar - Development of a radar solution intended to demonstrate proof of concept by Matu, Unathi Neo

“…These noise intensity values enabled the relationship between the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and the velocity error to be modelled at specific ranges from the radar, which led to a series of experiments that verified the prototypes' ability to accurately detect and estimate the vehicle speed at distances of up to 40 meters from the radar. …”

Analysing the role of language in the context of education, employment and income in South Africa by Kahn,Amy

“…After accounting for endogeneity and measurement error in the employment and wage models, I estimate that being proficient in English is associated with a 23-25 percentage point increase in the probability of employment, and a wage premium of 33 percent. …”

Understanding blood pressure dynamics in the South African population: a latent variables approach to the analysis and comparison of data from multiple surveys by Cois, Annibale

“…Second, structural equation modelling (and, within this general framework, multiple group modelling, normal‐censored regression, mixture analysis with skew‐normal distributions and the use of additional parameters and phantom variables) represent a viable and advantageous alternative to current methods of comparative analysis of blood pressure data. …”

The influence of delayed sample processing time on the PO₂ values in critically ill patients with sepsis-induced leukocytosis by Pretorius, Petrus Rohan

“…The study examined the extent of error over time, from collection to processing, when measuring blood gas samples for PO₂, PCO₂, pH, in critically-ill patients with sepsis and metabolically active leucocytosis > 12 000/mm³ and compares it with a control, where immersing it in ice has stopped metabolism. …”
