This work presents a novel algorithm of finding correspondence using a relaxation labeling. For the variance experiments, the variance of all algorithms except the proposed algorithm is large. The largest variance of the proposed algorithm is +0.01 in the 0.08 deformation test of a character. Overall, the proposed algorithm outperforms compared to the rest of algorithms. Except the proposed alg...

This study provides three results of note. First, analysis of information can be abstracted frommonetary values in special cases to variability of returns in general cases. Second, with an appropriately chosen model one can separate and calculate independently the influences on a stochastic process of having either more timely information, or better quality information, or both. Third, one can ...

Empirical likelihood (EL) ratio tests are developed for testing for or against the hypothesis that k-population means μ1, μ2, . . . , μk are isotonic with respect to some quasi-order ≼ on {1, 2, . . . , k}. The null asymptotic distributions are derived and are shown to be of chibar squared type. The asymptotic power of the proposed test for testing for equality of these means against the order ...
