The problem of market clearing in an economy is that of finding prices such that supply meets demand. In this work, we propose a kernel method to compute nonlinear clearing prices for instances where linear prices do not suffice. We first present a procedure that, given a sample of values and costs for a set of bundles, implicitly computes nonlinear clearing prices by solving an appropriately f...

Background and Aim: Knowledge about the root canal system variations is crucial for successful endodontic treatment. This study aimed to examine the applicability of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) as a substitute for the gold-standard tooth clearing technique in identification of internal anatomical variations of mandibular incisors. Materials and Methods: This in-vitro study evaluated 6...

This paper analyzes the question of whether traders learn to coordinate on a trading institution that guarantees market clearing, or whether other market institutions can survive in the long run. While we find that the market clearing institution is indeed always stable under a general class of learning dynamics, it turns out that also other, non-market clearing institutions are stable. Hence, ...

The encroachment of Eastern redcedar (ERC) (Juniperus virginiana L.) onto Great Plains prairies has become a serious threat to ecosystem functioning and grazing productivity. uncontrolled spread this invasive tree species been called »green glacier« converting grasslands into closed canopy woodlands. A pasture cutting robot was developed using tracked Autonomous Ground Vehicle (AGV) equipped wi...

knowing and conducting studies on size characters of trees is essential for assessing the tree volumeand/or other statistical parameters and also forest management. the characteristics of 529 treesincluding diameter at breast height (dbh) and total height were measured in an even-aged fraxinusstand for two periods from 2005 to 2012 in chelir district, a part of experimental kheyrud forest.resul...
