Real qualitative behavior of a fourth-order family of iterative methods by using the convergence plane
(Mathematics and Computers in Simulation, 2014-11)
The real dynamics of a family of fourth-order iterative methods is studied when it is applied on quadratic polynomials. A Scaling Theorem is obtained and the conjugacy classes are analyzed. The convergence plane is used ...
Challenges in software applications for the cognitive evaluation and stimulation of the elderly
(Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2014-05-15)
Background
Computer-based cognitive stimulation applications can help the elderly maintain and improve their cognitive skills. In this research paper, our objectives are to verify the usability of PESCO (an open-software ...
A study on the local convergence and the dynamics of Chebyshev–Halley–type methods free from second derivative
(Numerical Algorithms, 2016-01)
We study the local convergence of Chebyshev-Halley-type methods of convergence order at least five to approximate a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation. Earlier studies such as Behl (2013), Bruns and Bailey ...
Application of logistic regression models in observational methodology: game formats in grassroots football in initiation into football
(Anales de Psicología, 2016-01)
This study shows how simple and multiple logistic regression can be used in observational methodology and more specifically, in the fields of physical activity and sport. We demonstrate this in a study designed to determine ...

The present study aims to analyze the psychometric properties of the revised version of the Adolescent Cyber-Aggressor scale (CYB-AGS). This scale is composed of 18 items that measure direct and indirect cyberbullying. A ...
Generalized High-Order Classes for Solving Nonlinear Systems and Their Applications
(MDPIMathematics, 2019-12-05)
A generalized high-order class for approximating the solution of nonlinear systems of equations is introduced. First, from a fourth-order iterative family for solving nonlinear equations, we propose an extension to nonlinear ...
