This handout extends the handout on “The Multiple Linear Regression model” and refers to its definitions and assumptions in section 2. It relaxes the homoscedasticity assumption (OLS4a) and allows the error terms to be heteroscedastic and correlated within groups or so-called clusters. It shows in what situations the p... |
In the paper we consider the one model of dynamic system under conditions of indeterminacy – linear controllable differential inclusions. For the informational model of the control system the minimax control problem for ensemble trajectories is researched. This control problem is study with a methods nonsmooth and mult... |

The evolution of cloud computing is increasing exponentially which provides everything as a service. Clouds made it possible to move a huge amount of data over the networks on-demand. It removed the physical necessity of resources as resources are available virtually over the networks. Emerge of new technologies improv... |
The WA98 collaboration in the CERN SPS has reported an excess of photons over those originating from the decays of final hadrons in the lead-lead collisions. These photons can originate either from primary interactions of partons from colliding nuclei or from secondary interactions among produced particles. Photons pro... |
There are times when a piano teacher is confronted with the problem of instructing a student who is an education major, a liberal arts major taking piano as an elective, or a music major studying piano as a secondary instrument. Such a student is likely to have a weak background in piano, and it often becomes necessary... |

The therapeutic alliance, familiar to those who treat patients and conduct clinical trials, is considered by many to be a non-specific effect in research studies. The concept of the therapeutic alliance has its roots in the doctor-patient relationship and has been discussed extensively in the context of psychodynamic p... |
Nb/Al–AlOx /Nb superconducting tunnel junctions (STJ's) designed for X-ray detection have been fabricated. The behavior of the low-temperature subgap leakage current, which severely limits the energy resolution obtained in such devices, is investigated. From trends in the dependence of the leakage currents on the criti... |
The type strains of 10 small-spored species of the ascomycetous yeast genus Metschnikowia usually form a compact group on the phylogenetic trees inferred from barcode sequences.

Improving the perception of objects for an image through label co-occurrence correlation is shown to improve the hash quality. Existing methods ignore the relationship between different representation regions and lack highlighting of salient features when fusing co-occurrence label vectors with image embeddings. To tac... |
The conductive spherical particle in viscous fluid (silicone oil) under a uniform electric field shows both up-and-down motion and resting on the electrode between motions. In order to analyze the motion of a conductive particle under electric field theoretically, the charge amount of particle must be known. It can be ... |
Several bus models have been proposed for simultaneous message-passing on a bus. The priority model is a bus model in which the rightmost processor among processors trying to send to the bus actually succeeds and the common model is a bus model in which simultaneous sending is permitted only if the same value is sent b... |
ABSTRACT The main issue this paper aims to tackle is whether incitement to hatred, independently of direct incitement to violence should amount to the actus reus of persecution as a crime against humanity. Before determining whether hate speech can be treated as an international crime, this article assesses theories an... |

We investigate a family of regression problems in a semi-supervised setting. The task is to assign real-valued labels to a set of $n$ sample points, provided a small training subset of $N$ labeled points. A goal of semi-supervised learning is to take advantage of the (geometric) structure provided by the large number o... |
We investigate asymptotic behavior when the number of unlabeled points increases, while the number of training points remains fixed. We uncover a delicate interplay between the regularizing nature of the functionals considered and the nonlocality inherent to the graph constructions. We rigorously obtain almost optimal ... |

When both color and motion direction of visual stimuli are alternated in physical synchrony at a relatively higher frequency (approximately 2 Hz), the changes in motion direction are perceived to be delayed. On the other hand, color and motion direction changes are perceived to be in phase when the motion direction cha... |
In 83 specimen of amniotic fluid both a dynamic measurement of the surface tension by the Wilhelmy-balance and a determination of the lecithin-sphingomyelin-ratio were performed in 1987-1992 in order to predict a respiratory-distress-syndrome (RDS) of the newborn. 7 cases showed divergent results of both methods.

The p53-inducible gene WAF1/CIP1 encodes a M(r) 21,000 protein (p21) that has been shown to arrest cell growth by inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinases. Induction of WAF1/CIP1 in cells undergoing p53-dependent G1 arrest or apoptosis supports the idea that WAF1/CIP1 is a critical downstream effector of p53. In the pres... |

A 61-year-old man visited our hospital for treatment of a retroperitoneal tumor. The patient had undergone distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer in the past. At 5 years after distal gastrectomy, a retroperitoneal tumor with a large diameter of 30mm was detected by computed tomography and the patient underwent chemother... |
Pneumonia remains a tremendous cause of morbidity, mortality, and healthcare expense (1). Despite the recent revolution in culture-independent microbiology (2), clinical identification of respiratory pathogens still relies on the culture-based techniques used by Pasteur in the 1880s (3). Delayed identification of patho... |
The present study demonstrates a possible mechanism for the improvement of gastrointestinal cancer patients' prognosis by the histamine receptor type 2 (H2R) antagonist cimetidine.
