چکیده
Sagan, B.E., Inductive proofs of q-log concavity, Discrete Mathematics 99 (1992) 289-306. We give inductive proofs of q-log concavity for the Gaussian polynomials and the q-Stirling numbers of both kinds. Similar techniques are applied to show that certain sequences of elementary and complete symmetric functions are q-log concave.

Evaluation of the concavity depth and inclination in jaws using CBCT
Introduction: Nowadays, using implants as a choice in patient's treatment plans has become popular. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of mandibular lingual and maxillary buccal concavity, mean concavity depth and angle and its relation to age and gender. Materials and Methods: In 200 CBCT, concavity depth and angle were measured in 2 mm superior to the inferior alveolar c...
متن کاملSome Results on Convexity and Concavity of Multivariate Copulas
This paper provides some results on different types of convexity and concavity in the class of multivariate copulas. We also study their properties and provide several examples to illustrate our results.
متن کاملStrong log-concavity is preserved by convolution
We review and formulate results concerning strong-log-concavity in both discrete and continuous settings. Although four different proofs of preservation of strong log-concavity are known in the discrete setting (where strong log-concavity is known as “ultra-log-concavity”), preservation of strong log-concavity under convolution has apparently not been investigated previously in the continuous c...
متن کاملLogical Vision: One-Shot Meta-Interpretive Learning from Real Images
Statistical machine learning is widely used in image classification. However, most techniques 1) require many images to achieve high accuracy and 2) do not provide support for reasoning below the level of classification, and so are unable to support secondary reasoning, such as the existence and position of light sources and other objects outside the image. In recent work an Inductive Logic Pro...
متن کاملImproved spirometric detection of small airway narrowing: concavity in the expiratory flow–volume curve in people aged over 40 years
Background and objective We have explored whether assessing the degree of concavity in the descending limb of the maximum expiratory flow-volume curve enhanced spirometric detection of early small airway disease. Methods We used spirometry records from 890 individuals aged ≥40 years (mean 59 years), recruited for the Burden of Obstructive Lung Disease Australia study. Central and peripheral c...
