In the stabilizing consensus problem each agent of a networked system has an input value and is repeatedly writing output value; it required that eventually all values stabilize to same which, moreover, must be one values. We study this for synchronous model with identical anonymous agents are connected by time-varying topology may join at any time (asynchronous start). Our main result generic ...

Parametric-linkage analysis applied to large pedigrees with many affected individuals has helped in the identification of highly penetrant genes; but, for diseases lacking a clear Mendelian inheritance pattern or caused by several genes of low to moderate penetrance, a more robust strategy is nonparametric analysis applied to small sets of affected relatives, such as affected sib pairs. Here we...

We study repeated Bayesian games with communication and observable actions in which the players’ privately-known payoffs evolve according to an irreducible Markov chain whose transitions are independent across players. Our main result implies that, generically, any Pareto-efficient payoff vector above a stationary minmax value can be approximated arbitrarily closely in a perfect Bayesian equili...

the rapid change of land use and land cover in the metropolitan area of tehran has influenced the distribution pattern of land surface temperature (lst). in this study, a spatial autocorrelation analysis is adopted to process the spatial-temporal changes of lst and normalized difference vegetation index (ndvi) in tehran during the period of 1987 to 2010. global spatial autocorrelation analysis ...

We show that the F-test can be both liberal and conservative in the context of a particular type of nonspherical behaviour induced by spatial autocorrelation, and that the conservative variant is more likely to occur for extreme values of the spatial autocorrelation parameter. In particular, it will wipe out the progressive one as the sample size increases.

This proposal adds a function template (std::minmax) and / or an algorithm (std::minmax_element) to the header , both of which are implicitly present (by two separate calls to std::min and std::max, or std::min_element and std::max_element), but admit a better implementation if the two calls are combined into one. Both additions can be considered independently, although they are stro...
