aim : this study compared pr and nb in predicting hcv patient costs. the objective of this study was to predict the direct cost of the hcv patient in iran. background : hepatitis c virus (hcv) is a common and expensive infectious disease in iran. cost associated with hcv and its complications has not been well characterized. analysis of cost data is important in providing consistent information...

We introduce the notion of a Poisson symmetric space and the associated infinitesimal object, a symmetric Lie bialgebra. They generalize corresponding notions for Lie groups due to V. G. Drinfel’d. We use them to give some geometric insight to certain Poisson brackets that have appeared before in the literature. 1 Motivation Let us recall briefly the best-known examples of Poisson manifolds. Th...

This encyclopedia article briefly reviews without proofs some of the main results in Poisson reduction. The article recalls most the necessary prerequisites to understand the main results. The Poisson reduction techniques allow the construction of new Poisson structures out of a given one by combination of two operations: restriction to submanifolds that satisfy certain compatibility assumption...

pC++ is an object-parallel extension to the C++ programming language. This paper describes the current language deenition and illustrates the programming style. Examples of parallel linear algebra operations are presented and a fast poisson solver is described in complete detail.

Precise identification of the time when a process has changed enables process engineers to search for a potential special cause more effectively. In this paper, we develop change point estimation methods for a Poisson process in a Bayesian framework. We apply Bayesian hierarchical models to formulate the change point where there exists a step < /div> change, a linear trend and a known multip...

The matrix affine Poisson space (Mm,n, πm,n) is the space of complex rectangular matrices equipped with a canonical quadratic Poisson structure which in the square case m = n reduces to the standard Poisson structure on GLn(C). We prove that the Hamiltonian flows of all minors are complete. As a corollary we obtain that all Kogan–Zelevinsky integrable systems on Mn,n are complete and thus induc...

aim : the aim of this study was to compare alternatives methods for analysis of zero inflated count data and compare them with simple count models that are used by researchers frequently for such zero inflated data. background : analysis of viral load and risk factors could predict likelihood of achieving sustain virological response (svr). this information is useful to protect a person from ac...

In this note we clarify the relationship between the local and global definitions of dual pairs in Poisson geometry. It turns out that these are not equivalent. For the passage from local to global one needs a connected fiber hypothesis (this is well known), while the converse requires a dimension condition (which appears not to be known). We also provide examples illustrating the necessity of ...
