efl students gender and socioeconomic status: the use of politeness strategies in the first and second languages
within the components of communicative competence, a special emphasis is put on the “rules of politeness,” specifically the politeness strategies (brown and levinson, 1978) that speakers deploy when performing the request speech act. this is because the degree of imposition that making a request places upon one’s interlocutor(s) has been seen to be influenced by several factors among which, as ...
Calculating normal tissue complication probabilities and probabilities of complication-free tumour control from stochastic models of population dynamics
We use a stochastic birth-death model for a population of cells to estimate the normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) under a particular radiotherapy protocol. We specifically allow for interaction between cells, via a nonlinear logistic growth model. To capture some of the effects of intrinsic noise in the population we develop several approximations of NTCP, using Kramers–Moyal expans...

15 صفحه اولTwo-dimensional imaging of tumour control probabilities and normal tissue complication probabilities.
AIM To create a presentation method of TCP and NTCP distributions calculated based on dose distribution for a selected CT slice. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three 24-bit colour maps - of dose distribution, delineated structures and CT information - were converted into m-by-n-by-3 data arrays, containing intensities of red, green, and blue colour components for each pixel. All calculations were perf...
متن کاملLocal Behaviour of First Passage Probabilities
Suppose that S is an asymptotically stable random walk with norming sequence cn and that Tx is the time that S rst enters (x;1); where x 0: The asymptotic behaviour of P (T0 = n) has been described in a recent paper of Vatutin and Wachtel [21], and here we build on that result to give three estimates for P (Tx = n); which hold uniformly as n ! 1 in the regions x = o(cn); x = O(cn); and x=cn !1...
