Multivariate analysis deals with the statistical analysis of observations where there are multiple responses for each observational unit. Let X be an n μ p data matrix where the rows represent observations and the columns, variables. We will denote the variables by X1, X2, ..., Xp. In most cases it is necessary to sphere the data by subtracting out the means and dividing by the standard deviati...

Richardson and Green (1997) present a method of performing a Bayesian analysis of data from a finite mixture distribution with an unknown number of components. Their method is a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach, which makes use of the “reversible jump” methodology described by Green (1995). We describe an alternative MCMC method which views the parameters of the model as a (marked) poin...

Twenty-five patients with endocarditis and serum antiglobulin activity were studied. The antiglobulins were detected by use of the latex agglutination reaction; only eight sera reacted with sensitized sheep cells and one with human O CD erythrocytes coated with anti-CD (Ripley) antibody. Absorption of the sera with the infecting organisms produced a decrease in antiglobulin activity in 10 of th...

Motivated by gravitational wave observations of binary black hole mergers, we present a procedure to compute the leading-order nonlinear interactions around Kerr hole. We describe formalism used derive equations for second-order perturbations. develop that allows us reconstruct first-order metric perturbation solely from knowledge solution Teukolsky equation, without need Hertz potentials. Fina...
