this paper uses integrated data envelopment analysis (dea) models to rank all extreme and non-extreme efficient decision making units (dmus) and then applies integrated dea ranking method as a criterion to modify genetic algorithm (ga) for finding pareto optimal solutions of a multi objective programming (mop) problem. the researchers have used ranking method as a shortcut way to modify ga to d...

Using public data (Forbes Global 2000) we show that the distribution of asset sizes for the largest global firms follows a Pareto distribution in an intermediate range that is “interrupted” by a sharp cutoff in its upper tail, which is totally dominated by financial firms. This contrasts with a large body of empirical literature which finds a Pareto distribution for firm sizes both across count...

This article develops a beta-exponentiated Ishita distribution that extends the exponentiated Ishita distribution. Expansions for cumulative and probability density functions are given. Various properties of new such as hazard function, moments, cumulants, skewness, kurtosis, mean deviations, Bonferroni Lorenz curves, Renyi Tsallis entropies, stress-strength reliability discussed. Moment ...

Using public data (Forbes Global 2000) we show that the asset sizes for the largest global firms follow a Pareto distribution in an intermediate range, that is "interrupted" by a sharp cut-off in its upper tail, where it is totally dominated by financial firms. This flattening of the distribution contrasts with a large body of empirical literature which finds a Pareto distribution for firm size...

We question the claim that the largest US cities are Pareto distributed. We show that results of multiple tests on real data are similar to those obtainedwhen the true distribution is lognormal, and largely depend on sample sizes. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

In this note, we show by a proof-theoretical argument that in full linear logic the set of formulas for which contraction and weakening are admissible (the set of saturated formulas) does not coincide (up to equivalences) with the set of exponentiated formulas. This solves an open problem of Schellinx.

Experimental results on the multiplicative orders of Gauss periods in finite fields are presented. These results indicate that Gauss periods have high order and are often primitive (self-dual) normal elements in finite fields. It is shown that Gauss periods can be exponentiated in quadratic time. An application is an efficient pseudorandom bit generator.

Finding alternative to most well known classical family of distributions has become a topic of high importance in academic research due to their striking properties. An increasing interest can be observed for the art of adding parameter to some existing distributions as one parameter family of distributions is not sufficient to handle various real contexts. There is a vast amount of literature ...
