Example 1 (Mixture of K Poisson distributions). The sample spaces are X = Z+ := {0, 1, 2, . . . } = and Y = [K] := {1, 2, . . . ,K}. The parameter space is Θ = ∆K−1 × R++, where ∆K−1 := {π = (π1, π2, . . . , πK) ∈ R+ : ∑K j=1 πj = 1}, R+ := {t ∈ R : t ≥ 0}, and R++ := {t ∈ R : t > 0}. Each distribution Pθ in P = {Pθ : θ ∈ Θ} is as follows. If (X,Y ) ∼ Pθ for θ = (π, λ1, λ2, . . . , λK), then Y ...

Multidimensional databases are being used in a wide range of applications. To meet this fast-growing demand,R+ trees were used that exhibit outstanding search performance. In order to support efficient concurrent access in multiuser environments, concurrency control mechanisms for multidimensional indexing have been proposed. However, these mechanisms cannot be directly applied to the R+-tree b...

We show how to associate an R-tree to the set of cut points of a continuum. If X is a continuum without cut points we show how to associate an R-tree to the set of cut pairs of X . AMS Classification 54F15,54F05,20F65,20E08

objective: many investigators have attempted to examine the relationship between perceived locus of control and psychological problems. the present study examined this issue on a sample of iranian university students. methods: study subjects consisted of 134 iranian university students randomized from seven faculties of esfahan university of medical sciences. the subjects completed the symptom ...
