秦汉礼制中渗透的神学观念——以河北地区为例

秦汉时期,是宗教与封建专制融合的时代,以方术、巫术为基础的宗天神学和谶纬神学得到统治者推崇,对秦汉政治、文化产生了深刻的影响,甚至秦汉时期许多封建礼制和典章制度,都源于方术及其相关的宗教信仰。而河北地区的燕赵故地,正是神学宗教盛行的地区。以大量史实为基础,研究秦汉礼制中蕴含的神学宗教,可剖析封建礼制与宗教的关系和相互作用。     

韩国的金融政策与金融危机及对我国的警示

金融危机的爆发对经济发展的危害是巨大的,受这次金融风暴直接冲击的国家,其经济实力普遍倒退７至１０年。其中韩国因货币贬值五成,其经济规模已由世界排名第１２位降至第１７位,人均国民生产总值由１９９６年的１０５４８美元降至目前的６６６４美元,经济实力倒退了...

Bayesian analysis of time series Poisson data

This paper provides a practical simulation-based Bayesian analysis of parameter-driven models for time series Poisson data with the AR(1) latent process. The posterior distribution is simulated by a Gibbs sampling algorithm. Full conditional posterior distributions of unknown variables in the model are given in convenient forms for the Gibbs sampling algorithm. The case with missing observations is also discussed. The methods are applied to real polio data from 1970 to 1983.

Linear models that allow perfect estimation

The general Gauss–Markov model, Y = Xβ + e, E(e) = 0, Cov(e) = σ ² V, has been intensively studied and widely used. Most studies consider covariance matrices V that are nonsingular but we focus on the most difficult case wherein C(X), the column space of X, is not contained in C(V). This forces V to be singular. Under this condition there exist nontrivial linear functions of Q′Xβ that are known with probability 1 (perfectly) where ${C(Q)=C(V)^\perp}$ . To treat ${C(X) \not \subset C(V)}$ , much of the existing literature obtains estimates and tests by replacing V with a pseudo-covariance matrix T = V + XUX′ for some nonnegative definite U such that ${C(X) \subset C(T)}$ , see Christensen (Plane answers to complex questions: the theory of linear models, 2002, Chap. 10). We find it more intuitive to first eliminate what is known about Xβ and then to adjust X while keeping V unchanged. We show that we can decompose β into the sum of two orthogonal parts, β = β ₀ + β ₁, where β ₀ is known. We also show that the unknown component of X β is ${X\beta_1 \equiv \tilde{X} \gamma}$ , where ${C(\tilde{X})=C(X)\cap C(V)}$ . We replace the original model with ${Y-X\beta_0=\tilde{X}\gamma+e}$ , E(e) = 0, ${Cov(e)=\sigma^2V}$ and perform estimation and tests under this new model for which the simplifying assumption ${C(\tilde{X}) \subset C(V)}$ holds. This allows us to focus on the part of that parameters that are not known perfectly. We show that this method provides the usual estimates and tests.     

Complete convergence of the non-identically distributed pairwise NQD random sequences

ABSTRACT

In this article, we study complete convergence of the nonidentically distributed pairwise negatively quadrant dependent (NQD) random sequences by the moment inequality and terminating random variables,which extend and improve the previous relevant results.     

Directional mixture models and optimal estimation of the mixing density

The authors develop consistent nonparametric estimation techniques for the directional mixing density. Classical spherical harmonics are used to adapt Euclidean techniques to this directional environment. Minimax rates of convergence are obtained for rotation ally invariant densities verifying various smoothness conditions. It is found that the differences in smoothness between the Laplace, the Gaussian and the von Mises‐Fisher distributions lead to contrasting inferential conclusions.     

Unifying CRM and EWOC designs for phase I cancer clinical trials

The main goal of phase I cancer clinical trials is to determine the highest dose of a new therapy associated with an acceptable level of toxicity for the use in a subsequent phase II trial. The continual reassessment method (CRM) [O’Quigley, J., Pepe, M., Fisher, L., 1990. Continual reassessment method: a practical design for phase I clinical trials in cancer. Biometrics 46, 33–48] and escalation with overdose control (EWOC) [Babb, J., Rogatko, A., Zacks, S., 1998. Cancer phase I clinical trials: efficient dose escalation with overdose control. Statist. Med. 17 (10), 1103–1120] are two model-based designs used for phase I cancer clinical trials. A few modifications of the (original) CRM and EWOC have been made by many authors. In this paper, we show how CRM and EWOC can be unified and present a hybrid design. We study the characteristics of the approach of the hybrid design. The comparisons of the three designs (CRM, EWOC, and the hybrid design) are presented by convergence rates and overdose proportions. The simulation results show that the hybrid design generally has faster convergence rates than EWOC and smaller overdose proportions than CRM, especially when the true maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is above the mid-level of the dose range considered. The performance of these three designs is also evaluated in terms of sensitivity to outliers.
