The Impact of Labor Contract and Labor Union on Social Security Right
(Scientific Research Publishing Inc., 2018-04-23)Based on ten cities’ workers data about the employment situation of the worker in 2010, the paper analyzes the influence of labor contract and labor union on social security rights by using binary logistic regression ... -
Implementation of Blockchain Technology in Africa
(European Centre for Research Training and Development UK, 2019-08)Africa is currently tackling challenges to technologies and innovation in its suitable development agenda.in the journey to embracing the blockchain technology, ICT plays a very vital role in addressing the challenges. ... -
Information Technology In Government Services Delivery: A Case Study Of Huduma Center Kenya
(2018-12)The Huduma Kenya program was developed by the Kenyan government with an aim of using technology to improve the service delivery to the citizens. The Program uses many channels to meet different and varied needs of the ... -
An L-shaped Array with Non-Orthogonal Axes – Its Cramer-Rao Bound for Direction Finding
(IEEE, 2017-08)If a nominally L-shaped sensor-array's two legs are not exactly perpendicular, its azimuth-polar direction-of-arrival estimation would be degraded. This paper quantifies this degradation via a deterministic Cramér-Rao ... -
Localization of Overlaid Text Based on Noise Inconsistencies
(2015-04)In this paper, we present a novel technique for localization of caption text in video frames based on noise inconsistencies. Text is artificially added to the video after it has been captured and as such does not form part ... -

A Lower Bound of Estimation Error of an Emitter's Direction-of-Arrival / Polarization, for a Collocated Triad of Orthogonal Dipoles/Loops That Fail Randomly
(2017-04)For a triad of short dipoles (or of small loops), in perpendicular orientation relative to each other but collocated in space, this study derives a lower bound for their error in direction-of-arrival estimation and ... -
A Mathematical Model of Contact Tracing during the 2014–2016 West African Ebola Outbreak
(MDPI, 2021-03-12)The 2014–2016 West African outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) was the largest and most deadly to date. Contact tracing, following up those who may have been infected through contact with an infected individual to ... -
Medical Device Integration with Electronic Health Records: A Case Study of University of Nairobi Health Services, Kenya
(2020-06)In this study, we describe a demonstration in which available electronic medical records system (EMR) was successfully integrated with a wireless blood pressure monitor (BPM). This was implemented by adopting the use of ... -
Mixed model analysis using R.

A model for childhood Pneumonia Dynamics
(Asian online journals, 2014)This paper presents a deterministic model for pneumonia transmission and uses the model to assess the potential impact of therapy. The model is based on the Susceptible-Infected-Treatment-Susceptible compartmental structure ... -
MODELING DISPROPORTIONAL EFFECTS OF EDUCATING INFECTED KENYAN YOUTH ON HIV/AIDS
(journal of biological systems, 2020)We formulate an age and sex-structured deterministic model to assess the effect of increasing comprehensive knowledge of HIV/AIDS disease in the infected Adolescent Girls and Young Women (AGYW) and, Adolescent Boys and ... -
Modeling Influence Tribal Coalitions in Kenya Presidential Politics: A Case Study of Kikuyu-Kalenjin versus Luo-Kamba
(Science Domain International, 2016-04)A deterministic model was developed to describe the two dominant tribal coalition based voting bloc (A and B) and other tribes (C). The first order nonlinear ordinary differential equations were deduced using predator-prey ... -
Modeling Kenya Domestic Radicalization like A Disease Incorporating Rehabilitation Centers
(Academic Research Publishing Group, 2016)The study presents a deterministic model for radicalization process in Kenya and use the model to assess impact of rehabilitation centers to radicalization burden. The possibility of other drivers of radicalization to ... -
Modeling Scramble for other tribes votes by the three main tribal voting blocs in Kenya Presidential elections
(2016)A deterministic model was formulated to describe the tribal based voting blocs in Kenya presidential politics using four compartmental classes: Kikuyu (K), Luo (L), AKalenjin (A) and other tribes (T). The first order ... -
Modeling the Effect of HIV/AIDS Stigma on HIV Infection Dynamics in Kenya
(springer, 2021-03-15)Stigma toward people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) has impeded the response to the disease across the world. Widespread stigma leads to poor adherence of preventative measures while also causing PLWHA to avoid testing and ... -
Modeling the effects of insecticides resistance on malaria vector control in endemic regions of Kenya
(Elsevier Ltd., 2018-12)We present a model to investigate the effects of vector resistance to control strategies. The model captures the development of resistance as well as loss of resistance in mosquitoes and how these affect the progress in ... -
Modelling and Simulation of Competition for Students’ Population with Holling Type II Response
(UoEm, 2023)Te increase in the country’s population attracted the establishment of more schools, both public and private schools, to cater for the increasing number of students. However, there have been dynamics of students’ population ... -
