The first microcrystalline borazine-linked polymer, BLP-2(H), has been synthesized. BLP-2(H) crystallizes into 2D sheets that stack in an eclipsed AA fashion, has high thermal stability (∼420 °C) and high porosity (SA(BET) = 1178 m(2) g(-1)) and it can store up to 2.4 wt% of hydrogen at 77 K and 15 bar with isosteric heat of adsorption of 6.8 kJ mol(-1).

Despite the importance of Berry et al. [1995]’s model of demand for differentiated products (BLP hereafter), there are few results about its finite sample behavior. In theory, simulation experiments provide a tool to answer such questions but computational and numerical difficulties have prevented researchers from performing any realistic studies. Those Monte Carlo studies which exist focus on ...

Our previous work [26] introduced Belief Logic Programming (BLP), a novel form of quantitative logic programming with correlation of evidence. Unlike other quantitative approaches to logic programming, this new theory is able to provide accurate conclusions in the presence of uncertainty when the sources of information are not independent. However, the semantics defined in [26] is not sufficien...

Online lending has exploded in China in recent years. However, the €nancial agents are vulnerable for fraud aŠacks which reults in huge €nancial losses. Anti-fraud detection methods for traditional €nancial services are less e‚ective against online frauds. As a group e‚ort at CreditX, we designed an accurate, ecient, and scalable online fraud detecting mechnism by delivering a behavior languag...

OBJECTIVES This biochemical study compared the extracellular matrix of normal mitral valves and myxomatous mitral valves with either unileaflet prolapse (ULP) or bileaflet prolapse (BLP). BACKGROUND Myxomatous mitral valves are weaker and more extensible than normal valves, and myxomatous chordae are more mechanically compromised than leaflets. Despite histological evidence that glycosaminogl...

In order to develop highly secure database systems to meet the requirements for class B2, the BLP (Bell-LaPudula) model is extended according to the features of database systems. A method for verifying security model for database systems is proposed. According to this method, analysis by using Coq proof assistant to ensure the correctness and security of the extended model is introduced. Our fo...

Bayesian Logic Programs (BLP) [8][9] is a powerful and elegant framework for combining the expressiveness of first order logic with Bayesian networks. They can represent both Bayesian networks and logic programs, and their kernel in Prolog is an adaptation of an usual Prolog metainterpreter. It has been successfully compared to other such proposals in the literature. In this paper, we present a...

The functional architecture of the resting brain, as measured with blood oxygenation level-dependent connectivity (BOLD-FC), is slightly modified during task performance. In previous work, we reported behaviorally relevant BOLD-FC modulations between visual and dorsal attention regions when subjects performed a visuospatial compared to central fixation (Spadone et al., 2015). Here use magnetoen...

We derive the asymptotic distribution of parameters Berry et al. (1995) (BLP) model in a many markets setting which takes into account simulation noise under assumption overlapping draws. show that as long number draws R and T approach infinity, our estimator is m=min(R,T) consistent asymptotically normal. do not impose any relationship between rates at go to thus allowing for case R≪T. provide...
