NIEHS Breaks Ground on Future Research

The expression of heat shock proteins (HSP) of the 65kD family (groEL) has been observed by flow cytometry using murine monoclonal antibody (MoAb) anti-HSP 65kD (ML30) on the surface of B (Daudi) or T (H9) lymphoma cells, on a moncyte cell line (U937) and also on a primary culture of a human pancreatic carcinoma (HPC). Moreover, the MoAb ML30 was coupled to Saporin 6, a ribosome-inactivating pr...

Amb Breaks Well-Pointedness, Ground Amb Doesn't

McCarthy’s amb operator has no known denotational semantics, and its basic operational properties the context lemma, the compatibility of refinement similarity and convex bisimilarity have long been open. In this paper, we give a single example program that demonstrates the failure of each of these properties. This shows that there cannot be any well-pointed denotational semantics. However, we ...

A New Nonlinear Specification of Structural Breaks for Money Demand in Iran

In a structural time series regression model, binary variables have been used to quantify qualitative or categorical quantitative events such as politic and economic structural breaks, regions, age groups and etc. The use of the binary dummy variables is not reasonable because the effect of an event decreases (increases) gradually over time not at once. The simple and basic idea in this paper i...

A New Unit Root Test against Asymmetric ESTAR Nonlinearity with Smooth Breaks

T his paper proposes a new unit root test against the alternative of symmetric or asymmetric exponential smooth transition autoregressive (AESTAR) nonlinearity that accounts for multiple smooth breaks. We provide small sample properties which indicate the test statistics have good empirical size and power. Also, we compared small sample properties of the test statistics with Christop...
