in this paper, we prove the strong uniform consistency and asymptotic normality of the kernel density estimator proposed by jones [12] for length-biased data.the approach is based on the invariance principle for the empirical processes proved by horváth [10]. all simulations are drawn for different cases to demonstrate both, consistency and asymptotic normality and the method is illustrated by ...

We prove that a type-definable Lascar strong type has finite diameter. We answer also some other questions from [1] on Lascar strong types. We give some applications on subgroups of type-definable groups. In this paper T is a complete theory in language L and we work within a monster model C of T . For a0, a1 ∈ C let a0Θa1 iff 〈a0, a1〉 extends to an indiscernible sequence 〈an, n < ω〉. We define...

Authenticated Key Exchange protocols enable several parties to establish a shared cryptographically strong key over an insecure network using various authentication means, such as strong cryptographic keys or short (i.e., low-entropy) common secrets. The latter example is definitely the most interesting in practice, since no additional device is required, but just a human-memorable password, fo...

Background: Fungal infections with high morbidity and mortality in neonatal intensive care unit are usually preceded by colonization. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of fungal colonization, determine the risk factors and health outcome such as any change in the patient's improvement in hospitalized infants of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). <e...

OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to determine the prognosis in patients who needed norepinephrine treatment in our institution in relation to the degree of organ failure and the evolution of the disease process. DESIGN Retrospective case note analysis of outcome of those patients who needed norepinephrine according to our institutional regimen. PATIENTS A total of 100 consecutive patients...

We show that the theory of MV-algebras is Morita-equivalent to that of abelian `-groups with strong unit. This generalizes the well-known equivalence between the categories of set-based models of the two theories established by D. Mundici in 1986, and allows to transfer properties and results across them by using the methods of topos theory. We discuss several applications, including a sheaf-th...
