Di-chloro-bis[chloro(triphenylphosphine)mercury(II)], [Hg2Cl4(C18H15P)2], (I), and di-bromo-bis[bromo(triphenylphosphine)mercury(II)], [Hg2Br4(C18H15P)2], (II), have been reinvestigated at 120 K. The molecules of (I) lie across inversion centres in space group P21/n, and in both (I) and (II) the complexes are linked into three-dimensional frameworks by a combination of CÐH X (X = Cl and Br) and...

Estimation methods are proposed for fitting logistic regression in which outcome and covariate variables are missing separately or simultaneously. One of the two proposed estimators is an extension of the validation likelihood estimator of BreslowandCain (1988). The other is a joint conditional likelihood estimator that uses both validation and nonvalidation data. Large sample properties of the...

For many reasons it is advantageous to collect urine separately and collection systems, so called "no-mix-toilets" exist. Therefore, this work deals with some methods to make use of this urine to produce value added products: IBDU and ammonia water. It could be shown that urea can be converted to IBDU only after concentrating urine. With air stripping and absorption ammonificated urine can be t...

Conformal mapping models are used to study the competition of noise and anisotropy in Laplacian growth. For this purpose, a family of models is introduced with the noise level and directional anisotropy controlled independently. Fractalization is observed in both anisotropic growth and growth with varying noise. The fractal dimension is determined from the cluster size scaling with cluster area...

A connection between the separability and the countable chain condition of spaces with L-property (a topological space X has L-property if for every topological space Y , separately continuous function f : X ×Y →R and open set I ⊆R, the set f −1(I) is an Fσ-set) is studied. We show that every completely regular Baire space with the L-property and the countable chain condition is separable and c...

The rising popularity of electronic commerce makes data mining an indispensable technology for business competitiveness. The World Wide Web provides abundant raw data in the form of web access logs, web transaction logs and web user profiles. Without data mining tools, it is impossible to make any sense of such massive data. In this paper, we focus on web usage mining because it deals most appr...

Wiegerinck has shown that a separately subharmonic function need not be subharmonic. Improving previous results of Lelong, Avanissian, Arsove, and of us, Armitage and Gardiner gave an almost sharp integrability condition which ensures a separately subharmonic function to be subharmonic. Completing now our recent counterparts to the cited results of Lelong, Avanissian and Arsove for so-called qu...
