Baggerly (1998) showed that empirical likelihood is the only member in the Cressie-Read power divergence family to be Bartlett correctable. This paper strengthens Baggerly’s result by showing that in a generalized class of the power divergence family, which includes the Cressie-Read family and other nonparametric likelihood such as Schennach’s (2005, 2007) exponentially tilted empirical likelih...

this study reviews the formations of the family in shahnameh; distribution of power in it; and its identity. therefore, we study the theoretical background related to the subject of the research, theories related to the topic of cultural theories of malinowski, radcliffe brown, ario and shlensky, ronard and proposed research and theoretical framework of the research were written according to th...

Confounding due to population substructure is always a concern in genetic association studies. Although methods have been proposed to adjust for population stratification in the context of common variation, it is unclear how well these approaches will work when interrogating rare variation. Family-based association tests can be constructed that are robust to population stratification. For examp...

Fuel cells belong to an avant-garde technology family for a wide variety of applications including micro-power, transportation power, stationary power for buildings and other distributed generation applications. The first objective of this contribution is to find a suitable reduced model of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC). The derived reduced model is then used to design a state estimator. I...

Modeling the data from extended twin pedigrees allows the estimation of increasing complex covariance relationships in which the effects of cultural transmission, nonrandom mating and genotype x environment covariation can be incorporated. However, the power to detect these effects in existing data sets has not yet been examined. The present study examined the effects that different family stru...

In this paper, we develop an efficient Legend...

The Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation is building the world’s largest database of correlated genetic and genealogical information to enable genealogical research to be performed using DNA analysis techniques. DNA samples with associated 4-generation pedigree charts have so far been collected from approximately 40,000 volunteers. Up to 170 regions of DNA are currently analyzed for each ind...

Selection of cases with additional affected relatives has been shown to increase the power of the case-control association design. We investigated whether this strategy can also improve the power of family-based association studies that use the transmission disequilibrium test (TDT), while accounting for the effects of residual polygenic and environmental factors on disease liability. Ascertain...

In this paper a new family of low-power dynamic logic called Data-Driven Dynamic Logic (DL) is introduced. In this logic family, the synchronization clock has been eliminated, and correct sequencing is maintained by appropriate use of data instances. Then, it is shown that replacement of the clock with input data implies less power dissipation without speed degradation compared to conventional ...
