On the concentration of the missing mass ∗
نویسندگان
چکیده
A random variable is sampled from a discrete distribution. The missing mass is the probability of the set of points not observed in the sample. We sharpen and simplify McAllester and Ortiz’s results (JMLR, 2003) bounding the probability of large deviations of the missing mass. Along the way, we refine and rigorously prove a fundamental inequality of Kearns and Saul (UAI, 1998).

متن کاملThe Effects of a Surfactant Concentration on the Mass Transfer in a Mixer-Settler Extractor
The effects and influences of various parameters upon the efficiency and the overall volumetric mass transfer coefficients are important subjects to be studied in most liquid-liquid extraction processes. One of these important parameters is surface active agent (surfactant). In this paper, in order to study the effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) concentration on the efficiency and the a...
متن کاملThe association of body mass index with dental caries in an Iranian sample of children
BACKGROUND: Caries is an infectious disease that is induced by the diet. Despite its decline in all age groups on a worldwide basis, it is still a serious public health problem in children and its control should be a priority. It has been demonstrated that dental caries can gradually reduce children's weight gain, which may be reversed after complete oral rehabilitation. The main aim of this st...

The main objective of this paper is to examine the effect of nanomaterials on mass transfer coefficient in bubble type absorption of carbon dioxide by experiment. The absorption process is carried out in a bubble column and in room temperature. Mass transfer coefficient, saturated concentration of CO2, and gas holdup are determined in this system. The kinds of nanomaterials, the concentrations ...
متن کاملInvestigation of mass transfer coefficients in irregular packed liquid-liquid extraction columns in the presence of various nanoparticles
In the present study, the effect of various nanofluids on mass transfer coefficients in an irregular packed liquid-liquid extraction column was investigated. The chemical system of toluene–acetic acid–water was used. 10 nm SiO2, TiO2 and ZrO2 nanoparticles with various concentrations were dispersed in toluene-acid acetic to provide nanofluids. The influence of concentration and hydrophobicity/h...
