an estimation problem of the mean µ of an inverse gaussian distribution ig(µ, c µ) with known coefficient of variation c is treated as a decision problem with entropy loss function. a class of bayes estimators is constructed, and shown to include mrse estimator as its closure. two important members of this class can easily be computed using continued fractions

A conventional Ohmeda Intensive Care Incubator was instrumented with an ambient and five wall temperature probes and an ambient humidi ty meter. The infant being monitored was f i t ted with heel and abdominal skin temperature probes and an esophageal probe. An Apple lie microcomputer sampled analog output voltages from these sensors, and components of the metabolic energy balance were calculat...

A numerically effective description of the total active reflection coefficient and realized gain is studied for multiport antennas. Material losses are fully considered. The based on operators represented in an entire-domain port-mode basis, i.e., matrices with favorably small dimensions. Optimal performance investigated, conditions optimal excitation matching derived. solution to combinatorial...
