Abstract In this paper, we use Bayesian nonparametric learning to estimate the skill of actively managed mutual funds and also population distribution skill. A hierarchical prior, where hyperprior is unknown modeled with a Dirichlet Process used model parameter, its posterior predictive being an distribution. Our approach equivalent infinitely ordered mixture normals resolve uncertainty in numb...

OBJECTIVES We aimed to ascertain the efficacy of an intervention in which laboratory test costs were provided to clinicians as a pocket-sized brochure, in reducing laboratory test costs over a 4-month period. METHODS This was a non-randomised intervention study in the Internal Medicine wards at Steve Biko Academic Hospital, Pretoria, in which the intervention was laboratory test costs provide...

Exons are ligated in an ordered manner without the skipping of exons in the constitutive splicing of pre-mRNAs with multiple introns. To identify factors ensuring ordered exon joining in constitutive pre-mRNA splicing, we previously screened for exon skipping mutants in Schizosaccharomyces pombe using a reporter plasmid, and characterized three exon skipping mutants named ods1 (ordered splicing...

This paper presents the induced generalized ordered weighted logarithmic aggregation (IGOWLA) operator, this operator is an extension of (GOWLA) operator. It uses order-induced variables that modify reordering process arguments included in aggregation. The principal advantage introduced mechanism consideration highly complex attitude from decision makers. We study some families IGOWLA as measur...

A Dedekind cut of an ordered abelian group G is a pair (X, Y) of nonempty subsets of G where Y=G−X and every member of X precedes every member of Y. A Dedekind cut (X, Y) is said to be continuous if X has a greatest member or Y has a least member, but not both; if every Dedekind cut of G is a continuous cut, G is said to be (Dedekind) continuous. The ordered abelian group R of real numbers is, ...
