We show that the no betting characterisation of the existence of common priors over finite type spaces extends only partially to improper priors in the countably infinite state space context: the existence of a common prior implies the absence of a bounded agreeable bet, and the absence of a common improper prior implies the existence of a bounded agreeable bet. However, a type space that lacks...

Mobile agent based computing is one of the powerful technologies for the development of distributed complex systems. There is little research regarding the effectiveness of mobile agent based detecting of improper computer usage at computer laboratories. This paper presents a Mobile-C Based Agent System (MCBAS) for Detecting Improper Computer Usage at Computer Laboratories. Based on the Mobile-...

The rate maximization for the K-user interference channels (ICs) has been investigated extensively in the literature. However, the dual problem of minimizing the error probability with given signal modulations and/or data rates of the users is less exploited. In this paper, by utilizing the additional degrees of freedom attained from the improper signaling (versus the conventional proper signal...

For any graph G, the k-improper chromatic number χ(G) is the smallest number of colours used in a colouring of G such that each colour class induces a subgraph of maximum degree k. We investigate the ratio of the kimproper chromatic number to the clique number for unit disk graphs and random unit disk graphs to extend results of McDiarmid and Reed (1999); McDiarmid (2003) (where they considered...

Strong evidence implicates maternal phthalate exposure during pregnancy in contributing to adverse birth outcomes. Recent research suggests these effects might be mediated through the improper regulation of DNA methylation in offspring tissue. In this study, we examined associations between prenatal phthalate exposure and DNA methylation in human placenta. We recruited 181 mother-newborn pairs ...

The problem of computing minimal realizations of a singular system decomposed into a standard dynamical system and a static system of a given improper transfer matrix is formulated and solved. A new notion of the minimal dynamical-static realization is introduced. It is shown that there always exists a minimal dynamical-static realization of a given improper transfer matrix. A procedure for the...

For graphs of bounded maximum degree, we consider acyclic t-improper colourings, that is, colourings in which each bipartite subgraph consisting of the edges between two colour classes is acyclic and each colour class induces a graph with maximum degree at most t. We consider the supremum, over all graphs of maximum degree at most d, of the acyclic t-improper chromatic number and provide t-impr...

An intrusion detection system refers to the systems which detect the security breaches in a network. The main goal of IDS is to detect the attacks and raise alarms if an attack is found. These IDS has limitation of raising false alarms and this limitation depends on improper classification of attacks due to high dimensionality of data on a network. Improper classification is due to improper fea...

The honeycomb TbInO3 has attracted wide research attention due to its fascinating physical properties. However, single crystal was difficult grow owing the high melting point and serious volatilization of indium during growth. In this study, element effectively suppressed by controlling growth atmosphere pressure. excess ratio oxide determined, pure hexagonal obtained laser floating zone method...

INTRODUCTION The medical leech (Hirudo medicinalis) has been used throughout the centuries and continues to be used today, mainly in reconstructive surgery and microsurgery. Easy access to these animals may entail an improper use of this therapeutic method by patients as a form of self-treatment. CASE REPORT A man who presented with skin erythema and oedema due to the application of a medical...
