in the era of globalization, particularly, since early 1990s, economies around the world have been affected considerably by co-movements in one or more countries. in the literature this phenomenon is recognized as synchronization in business cycles, while joint policies being conducted by trading partners can modify such effects properly. the objective of this paper has been to evaluate a possi...

Unilateral Posterior Crossbite with functional shift of the mandible is a common condition. Early treatment of the condition may prevent adverse effects on temporomandibular joint and masticatory muscles. Many treatment options have been discussed in the literature so far. During the deciduous and early mixed dentition stages, smaller forces can be used to achieve sutural expansion. When expans...

Scheinok’s (1972) empirical results, obtained from using Bahadur’s expansion in Bayes’s theorem, are explained by noting that the expansion is an exact representation of observed probabilities and thus no information was gained by its use. The calculated and observed joint probability distributions will always be equal. It is also demonstrated that posterior probabilities equal to the ratio of ...

Radix-rational sequences are solutions of systems of recurrence equations based on the radix representation of the index. For each radix-rational sequence with complex values we provide an asymptotic expansion, essentially in the scale N logN . The precision of the asymptotic expansion depends on the joint spectral radius of the linear representation of the sequence of first-order differences. ...

In this paper, we present FRDC's system at participating in the cross-lingual entity linking (CLEL) tasks for the NIST Text Analysis Conference (TAC) Knowledge Base Population (KBP2013) track. We propose a joint approach for mention expansion, disambiguation, and clustering. In particular, we adopt a lexicon and rule based method for entity classification, a collaborative acronym expansion meth...

Among all sequences that satisfy a divide-and-conquer recurrence, the sequences that are rational with respect to a numeration system are certainly the most immediate and most essential. Nevertheless, until recently they have not been studied from the asymptotic standpoint. We show how a mechanical process permits to compute their asymptotic expansion. It is based on linear algebra, with Jordan...

the rank-k numerical range has a close connection to the construction of quantum error correction code for a noisy quantum channel. for noisy quantum channel, a quantum error correcting code of dimension k exists if and only if the associated joint rank-k numerical range is non-empty. in this paper the notion of joint rank-k numerical range is generalized and some statements of [2011, generaliz...
