We consider maximum likelihood estimation of finite mixture of uniform distributions. We prove that the maximum likelihood estimator is strongly consistent, if the scale parameters of the component uniform distributions are restricted from below by exp(−nd), 0 < d < 1, where n is the sample size.

Irradiation of dithiane-aldehyde/ketone adducts in the presence of benzophenone leads to C-C bond cleavage regenerating the carbonyl compounds. It is established that the mechanism of this reaction involves photochemically induced single electron transfer from the dithiane moiety to the excited molecule of ET-photosensitizer, accompanied by mesolytic C-C cleavage in the generated cation-radical...

Locally consistent parsing (LCP) is a context sensitive partitioning method which achieves partition consistency in (almost) linear time. When iteratively applied, LCP followed by consistent block labeling provides a powerful tool for processing strings for a multitude of problems. In this paper we summarize applications of LCP in approximating well known distance measures between pairs of stri...

MCSCF-MRMP2 and DFT calculations were performed in order to analyze the stability and geometrical parameters of some possible intermediates for the reactions Ru2+ + H2O2 and Ru(H2O)6 + H2O2. At MCSCF-MRMP2 level of calculation, the stability predicted for the RuO(H2O)5 suggests an energetic preference of the reaction Ru(H2O)6 + H2O2 toward the products involving this high-valence intermediate, ...

Reviews of studies to predict invasiveness have been carried out by Kolar and Lodge (2001) and updated by Hayes and Barry (2008). A significant body of literature has built up across a range of taxa looking at correlates of invasion success. Several points can be made from this literature. First, while invasiveness cannot be predicted with certainty, statistical approaches can produce models th...
