SUMMARY We propose a general and unified approach to the selection of regular fractional factorial designs which can be applied to experiments that are unblocked, blocked, with random or fixed block effects, or have a split-plot structure. Our criterion is derived as a good surrogate for the model-robustness criterion of information capacity. In the case of random block effects, it takes the ra...

– We study the asymptotic behavior of the radially symmetric ground state solution of a quasilinear elliptic equation involving the m-Laplacian. The case of two vanishing parameters is considered: we show that these two parameters have opposite effects on the asymptotic behavior. Moreover the results highlight a suprising phenomenon: different asymptotic are obtained according to whether n > m2...

Faisant suite à une étude antérieure consacrée aux changements dans la localisation des médecins à Kingston, le présent article compare le groupe des médecins à celui des hommes de loi et constitue un pas vers une meilleure compréhension du mécanisme de la séparation du lieu du domicile et du lieu de travail. L’auteur constate des différences marquées dans la répartition dans l’espace et dans l...

In this paper, a new still image inpainting method is proposed. The method assumes that the natural images have the fractal property. The main assumption in these images is that each small block of an image can be replaced using another block contained in that image using translation, scaling, and zooming properties. In our method, a very fast and flexible segmentation algorithm is used which p...
