in order to estimate responses of growth rate and growth hormone of clarias gariepinus to stocking density, fish (initial weight 30.71 ± 0.89 g) were stocked in 120-l tanks at densities of 35, 65, 95, and 125 kg/m3 for 60 days. on day 30 and 60, the fish growth rates were measured, pituitary growth hormone (gh) mrna levels and serum gh concentrations were examined by real-time qpcr and elisa te...

Let X be a compact Kähler manifold of dimension n. For 1 ⩽ j m , let T closed positive (1,1)-current on whose cohomology class is Kähler. current bi-degree ( p ) with + n . We prove that if … are T-relative full mass intersection, then the non-pluripolar product equal to Dinh–Sibony

Let X1,X2, . . ., be stationary and ergodic random variables with values in a metric space M with distance d, let P (A) = P (Xn ∈ A) and let S(x, r) = {y ∈ M : d(x, y) ≤ r}. Let M0 be the set of x for which P (S(x, r)) > 0 if r > 0, and suppose also that for x in M0, P (S(x, r)) is continuous in x and is differentiable in r for r ≥ 0, and with a positive derivative for all r in a neighborhood o...

Well described tools for comparing two populations via their cumulative distribution functions F and F0 are the so-called relative distribution R (t) = F { F−1 0 (t) } and the corresponding relative density (or grade density) r (t). The authors propose a kerneltype estimator for the relative density r (t) in the situation where independent samples of right-censored observations are available fr...

In this paper we address the following density estimation problem: given a number of relative similarity judgements over a set of itemsD, assign a density value p(x) to each item x ∈ D. Our work is motivated by human computing applications where density can be interpreted e.g. as a measure of the rarity of an item. While humans are excellent at solving a range of different visual tasks, assessi...
