Mathematical probit and logistic mortality models of the Khapra beetle fumigated with plant essential oils by Alhadi E. Alamir, Gomah E. Nenaah, Mohamed A. Hafiz

“…As this technique needs to perturb the observed mortality proportions if the proportions include 0 or 1, the optimal perturbation in terms of minimum least squares ($L_2$) error was also determined. According to our results, it was better to log-transform concentration and time as explanatory variables in modeling mortality of the test insect. …”
