The quantal response equilibrium (QRE) notion of McKelvey and Palfrey (1995) has recently attracted considerable attention, due in part to its widely documented ability to rationalize observed behavior in games played by experimental subjects. However, even with strong a priori restrictions on unobservables, QRE imposes no falsifiable restrictions: it can rationalize any distribution of behavio...

statement of problem: surface disinfection is an important aspect of infection control in dentistry. a new generation of quaternary ammonium components (qacs) is gaining popularity as high-level disinfectants. two types of qac sprays, uniseptaquick and solarsept, are being widely used by iranian dentists. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficiency of unisepta quick a...

We analyze data from the legislative bargaining experiments reported in Frechette, Kagel, and Lehrer (2003), Frechette, Kagel, and Morelli (2005a,b), and Drouvelis, Montero, and Sefton (2010) in order to investigate the extent to which the observed deviations from the theoretical predictions can be explained by imperfect best response, in combination with different assumptions about correct (QR...

In this interesting paper Professor Nikiforov reviewed the current state of quickest change detection/isolation problem. In our discussion of his paper we focus on the concerns and the opportunities of the subfield of quickest change detection, or more generally, sequential methodologies, in the modern

in this paper, acceptance criteria of steel building code, comprehensive and quick evaluation procedures for x-bracing, are compared to each other parametrically and numerically. for this purpose, it is assumed first that the sample building is designed to meet steel building code and then by introducing transform parameters and using stress ratio of the designed components, acceptance of the d...

Significant vital functions take place in the oral cavity and oropharynx, primarily mastication, as initial function of gastrointestinal system, swallowing, respiration speech. All these biological can be endangered, ie aggravated, even disabled by appearance neoplasms that anatomical space. In maxillofacial region, originate from a variety tissues, mucous membranes to jaws, salivary glands, tu...
