Abstract The Fairlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM) family has been investigated in detail for various continuous marginals such as Cauchy, normal, exponential, gamma, Weibull, lognormal and others. It has been a popular model for the bivariate distribution with mild dependence. However, bivariate FGM’s with continuous marginals on a bounded support discussed in the literature are only those with uni...

Global climate change is expected to have broad ecological consequences for species and communities. Attempts to forecast these consequences usually assume that changes in air or water temperature will translate into equivalent changes in a species' organismal body temperature. This simple change is unlikely because an organism's body temperature is determined by a complex series of interaction...

Abstract We give some adequate extension, in the framework of a general Lévy process, of our previous construction of processes with one-dimensional martingale marginals, done originally in the set-up of Brownian motion. The Lévy process framework allows us to streamline our previous arguments, as well as to reach a larger class of such processes, even in the Brownian case. We give some illustr...

background chronic hepatitis b virus (hbv) infection is a multifactorial disease that can result in serious clinical complications. host genetic background especially the genes that encode immunologic factors like inf-γ and its receptor (ifn-γ r) are critical in the pathogenesis of infection. materials and methods genomic dna from peripheral blood samples of 200 chronically hbv infected patient...

This report is willing to give an overview of the situation regarding the geo-referencing of BIM models in GIS. The focus is made on identifying how the geographic coordinates of a construction project shall be integrated in its 3D model such that the information is kept in the context of a GIS application. We study the case of BIMs designed using the Autodesk Revit software and exported as IFC...

Molecular structure of a gene, ZmSTPK1, encoding a serine/threonine protein kinase in maize was analyzed by bioinformatic tool and its expression pattern was studied under chemical biological fertilizers. Bioinformatic analysis cleared that ZmSTPK1 is located on chromosome 10, from position 141015332 to 141017582. The full genomic sequence of the gene is 2251 bp in length and includes 2 exons. ...

The integration of a surveillance camera video with a three-dimensional (3D) geographic information system (GIS) requires the georeferencing of that video. Since a video consists of separate frames, each frame must be georeferenced. To georeference a video frame, we rely on the information about the camera view at the moment that the frame was captured. A camera view in 3D space is completely d...
