BaOx(0.5 MLE 10 MLE)/Pt(111) (MLE: monolayer equivalent) surfaces were synthesized as model NOx storage reduction (NSR) catalysts. Chemical structure, surface morphology, and the nature of the adsorbed species on BaOx/Pt(111) surfaces were studied via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), and low-energy electron diffraction (LEED). For θBaOx < 1 MLE, (...

Abstract In this paper, we consider Kumaraswamy-G distributions and derive a Uniformly Minimum Variance Unbiased Estimator (UMVUE) Maximum Likelihood (MLE) of the two measures reliability, namely R ( t ) = P X &gt; Y under Type II censoring scheme sampling Bartholomew (1963). We also develop interval estimates reliability measures. A comparative study different methods point estimation has been...

Transcription levels of the genes on X chromosome are regulated through the dosage compensation mechanisms. The dosage compensation complex (DCC) localizes to X chromosome and activates the transcription of target genes in male 2-fold more than in female. Drosophila maleless (MLE), an ATPase/helicase, is a component of the DCC and essential for the viability of male flies. However, the function...

This paper considers the non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for the joint distribution function of an interval-censored survival time and a continuous mark variable. We provide a new explicit formula for the MLE in this problem. We use this formula and the mark-specific cumulative hazard function of Huang & Louis (1998) to obtain the almost sure limit of the MLE. This result lead...

Background & Objective: In traditional medicine, leaves of white mulberry (Morus alba L.) are used as antidiabetic agents. Considering the presence of flavonoids, this plant exhibits insulin mimetic activities. Nesfatin-1 is described as an anorexigenic regulatory peptide, which can influence glucose metabolism via insulin sensitivity enhancement. This study examined the effects of both mulberr...

The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for the proportional hazards model with current status data is studied. It is shown that the MLE for the regression parameter is asymptotically normal with vn-convergence rate and achieves the information bound, even though the MLE for the baseline cumulative hazard function only converges at nI/3 rate. Estimation of the asymptotic variance matrix for the ...

The mle(napts) mutation causes temperature-dependent blockade of action potentials resulting from decreased abundance of para-encoded Na+ channels. Although maleless (mle) encodes a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) helicase, exactly how mle(napts) affects para expression remained uncertain. Here, we show that para transcripts undergo adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing via a mechanism that app...

This article considers the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for the joint distribution function of an interval censored survival time and a continuous mark variable. We derive a new explicit formula for the MLE that has both computational and theoretical advantages. Using this formula and the mark specific cumulative hazard function of Huang & Louis (1998), we derive the almost ...
