AIM Assessment of associations between occurrence of pseudocardiac symptoms in patients qualified for psychotherapy, with intensity and picture of their neurotic personality disorder. MATERIAL AND METHODS Case records of 2450 patients from years 2004-2014 were analysed in terms of associations between symptoms reported by means of symptom checklist and global neurotic symptom scores (OWK), gl...

We consider an assembly system with multiple stages, multiple items, and multiple customer classes. The system consists of m production facilities, each producing a different item. Items are produced in variable batch sizes, one batch at a time, with exponentially distributed batch production times. Demand from each class takes place continuously over time according to a compound Poisson proces...

This article describes an efficient procedure for computing approximate confidence levels for searches for new particles where the expected signal and background levels are small enough to require the use of Poisson statistics. The results of many independent searches for the same particle may be combined easily, regardless of the discriminating variables which may be measured for the candidate...

We present a supervised method for training a sentence level confidence measure on translation output using a humanannotated corpus. We evaluate a variety of machine learning methods. The resultant measure, while trained on a very small dataset, correlates well with human judgments, and proves to be effective on one task based evaluation. Although the experiments have only been run on one MT sy...

In Vendor-Managed Inventory systems the supplier is responsible for replenishing customers and for deciding when and how much to deliver. One of two inventory policies is typically employed by the supplier. The first one, called the maximum level (ML) policy, gives full freedom to the supplier to deliver any quantity as long as it respects customer inventory capacities. The alternative, much mo...
