This paper proposes large deviation optimal properties of the empirical likelihood testing (ELT) moment selection procedures for moment restriction models. Since the parameter spaces of the moment selection problem is discrete, the conventional Pitman-type local alternative approach is not very helpful. By applying the theory of large deviations, we analyze convergence rates of the error probab...

The discussion in this talk follows from a recent contract to study control strategies for the segmented primary mirror of the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT), in a comprehensive realistic setting. The talk starts by describing this application and naturally relates it to a distributed systems approach. Then it describes several specific issues and solutions for the control of the E-...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Endovenous laser treatment (ELT) has been recently proposed as an alternative in the treatment of reflux of the Great Saphenous Vein (GSV) and Small Saphenous Vein (SSV). Successful ELT depends on the selection of optimal parameters required to achieve an optimal vein damage while avoiding side effects. Mathematical modeling of ELT could provide a better understanding ...

abstract literature review indicates that an effective and good teacher has an important role in students' performances and their success. pivotal roles of teachers may affect students’ attitudes and motivations to language learning. improving the field of foreign language teaching and learning without improving the qualities of efl teachers seems impossible. this attempt, at first hand, r...

English for Academic Purposes (EAP) courses are currently well-established university programs. These courses are run independently by English Language Teaching (ELT) instructors and content instructors without any collaboration. However, ELT instructors and content instructors do not receive the same level of collegiality and social support from the organizations and students. This paper probe...

This paper investigates an emerging professional role transformation in Vietnamese universities, whereby English language teaching (ELT) lecturers transform themselves into medium instruction (EMI) a discipline new to them. Through interviews with five ELT/EMI working separate universities and different disciplines, the study reasons for their decision engage such mobility, experience, its impl...
