A robust hypothesis testing framework is introduced in which candidate hypotheses are characterized by moment classes. It is shown that there exists a test sequence that is asymptotically optimal in the min-max sense, and that it is expressed as a comparison of a log-linear combination of the constraint functions to a pre-determined threshold. Algorithms are described to compute the optimal tes...

the kinetics of iodination of the phenol and substituted phenols using pyridiniumiodochloride in methanol has been studied under varying conditions. the rates show first orderkinetics each in pyridinium iodochloride and phenols. the rates of reactions are measured atdifferent temperature and activation parameters for all phenols computed. hammett plot is foundto be valid and the corrletion betw...

Graph signal sampling is the problem of selecting a subset representative graph vertices whose values can be used to interpolate missing on remaining vertices. Optimizing choice set using concepts from experiment design help minimize effect noise in input signal. While many existing selection methods are computationally intensive because they require an eigendecomposition, eigendecomposition-fr...

Abstract This work investigates the efficacy of a biodegradable natural product, litchi leaves powder (LLP) as filtration loss control agent in water-based drilling fluid formulations. In order to evaluate potential (LLP), strict protocol experimentations according API (American Petroleum Institute) standard has been followed. The experimental outcome showed that before hot rolling and after mu...
