Flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) processes are highly suppressed in the standard model (SM) and thus constitute a stringent test of the current description of particle physics. Precise predictions of the branching fractions of the FCNC decays Bs ! þ and B ! þ , BðBs ! þ Þ 1⁄4 ð3:2 0:2Þ 10 9 and BðB0 ! þ Þ 1⁄4 ð0:10 0:01Þ 10 9 [1,2] make these modes powerful probes in the search for deviat...

This paper extends Burdett and Coles (2003)’s search model to two types of workers and firms and derives the equilibrium earnings distributions for both types of workers. It is proven that minority workers have a higher unemployment rate than majority workers; discriminating firms make lower profit than non-discriminating firms; offers to minority workers by non-discriminating firms are consist...

This paper aims to address the problem of anomaly detection and discrimination in complex behaviours, where anomalies are subtle and difficult to detect owing to the complex temporal dynamics and correlations among multiple objects’ behaviours. Specifically, we decompose a complex behaviour pattern according to its temporal characteristics or spatial-temporal visual contexts. The decomposed beh...
