A flexible semiparametric model for analyzing longitudinal panel count data arising from mixtures is presented. Panel count data refers here to count data on recurrent events collected as the number of events that have occurred within specific follow-up periods. The model assumes that the counts for each subject are generated by mixtures of nonhomogeneous Poisson processes with smooth intensity...

Abstract The carnation tortrix moth, Cacoecimorpha pronubana , and the light brown apple Epiphyas postvittana (Walker, 1863) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) are two important polyphagous pest species affecting a wide range of plant many which horticultural crops. Crop damage is caused by larvae these moths rolling leaves together feeding on foliage. In order to understand how affected host through t...

A rapid and sensitive extractive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of samarium using 0.04% Chlorophosphonazo III in 1 mol L hydrochloric acid media after extraction into isoamylalcohol. Absorbance was measured in 1-cm cell and the complex has a sensitive absorption peak at 667 nm. The complex of Sm(III)-Chlorophosphonazo III is formed instantly in organic phase ...
