We propose a Bayesian method for multiple hypothesis testing in random effects models that uses Dirichlet process (DP) priors for a nonparametric treatment of the random effects distribution. We consider a general model formulation which accommodates a variety of multiple treatment conditions. A key feature of our method is the use of a product of spiked distributions, i.e., mixtures of a point...

An attempted to produce or fabricate a functional kick wheel have failed because some important principles guiding the fabrication of was neglected. Some these are improper centered head and low rotating force from fly wheel. In this research, design generated in bid for pottery production using marsonial wood skeletal part. The designed such way that centering can be self-controlled. Low cost ...

The paper considers the possibility of boosting efficiency of the AdaBoost algorithm by introducing diversity in the information extraction procedures and subsequent information fusion. A given raw data set is transformed by two well known methods known as vector autoscaling and dimensional autoscaling. These methods transform data by mean-centering and variancenormalization with respect to the...

AIMS The purpose of this study was to compare the canal centering abilities of rotary nickel-titanium (NiTi) files (ProFile 0.04 and 0.06 and Lightspeed LSX) and NiTi hand K-files in 10° to 25° curved canals. This was compared with the canal centering ability of stainless steel hand K-files using Kuttler's endodontic cube. SETTINGS AND DESIGN The teeth with a 10° to 25° of clinical mesiodista...

background: the aim of this study was to evaluate apical transportation and centering ability of single-fi le instruments, waveone primary, with full rotation versus reciprocation movement using cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) analysis in curved mesiobuccal (mb) root canal of human mandibular molars. materials and methods: thirty mb canals of mandibular molars were randomly divided into tw...

‎A full Nesterov-Todd (NT) step infeasible interior-point algorithm‎ ‎is proposed for solving monotone linear complementarity problems‎ ‎over symmetric cones by using Euclidean Jordan algebra‎. ‎Two types of‎ ‎full NT-steps are used‎, ‎feasibility steps and centering steps‎. ‎The‎ ‎algorithm starts from strictly feasible iterates of a perturbed‎ ‎problem‎, ‎and, using the central path and feasi...

Metacognition and self-regulation are processes extremely relevant to education of persons with intellectual disabilities. They play a central role in specific limitations, such as outer-directedness and lack of strategy transfer, and are related to desirable educational objectives such as self-determination. Although computer-assisted training has shown to be successful in training specific ab...
