Bayesian ‘Hyper-Parameters’ Approach to Joint Estimation: The Hubble Constant from CMB Measurements
Recently several studies have jointly analysed data from different cosmological probes with the motivation of estimating cosmological parameters. Here we generalise this procedure to take into account the relative weights of various probes. This is done by including in the joint χ function a set of ‘Hyper-Parameters’, which are dealt with using Bayesian considerations. The resulting algorithm (...
متن کاملnon-corrective approach to pronunciation
the aim of this study has been to find answers for the following questions: 1. what is the effect of immediate correction on students pronunciation errors? 2. what would be the effect of teaching the more rgular patterns of english pronunciation? 3. is there any significant difference between the two methods of dealing with pronuciation errore, i. e., correction and the teaching of the regular ...
15 صفحه اولiranian english learners’ perception and personality: a dual approach to investigating influential factors on willingness to communicate
abstract previous studies on willingness to communicate (wtc) have shown the influence of many individual or situational factors on students’ tendency to engage in classroom communication, in which wtc has been viewed either at the trait-level or situational level. however, due to the complexity of the notion of willingness to communicate, the present study suggests that these two strands are ...
Distances to Cepheid Open Clusters Via Optical and K-Band Imaging
We investigate the reddening and Main Sequence fitted distances to eleven young, Galactic open clusters that contain Cepheids. Each cluster contains or is associated with at least one Cepheid variable star. Reddening to the clusters is estimated using the UB:B-V colours of the OB stars and the distance modulus to the cluster is estimated via B-V:V and V-K:V colour-magnitude diagrams. By main-se...
متن کاملA Fundamental Parameters Approach to X-ray Line-Profile Fitting
A convolution approach to X-ray powder line-profile fitting is developed in which the line shape is synthesized from the Cu Ks emission profile, the dimensions of the diffractometer and the physical variables of the specimen. In addition to the integrated intensities and 20 positions of the line profiles, the parameters that may be fitted include the receiving-slit width, the receiving-slit len...
