检察机关职务犯罪侦查工作模式研究

2013年1月开始正式施行的新刑诉法在证据制度、辩护制度、侦查措施等方面对检察机关的职务犯罪侦查工作提出了更高的要求。故为推动我国检察事业的健康发展,有必要在深入分析新刑诉法相关规定及其对职务犯罪侦查工作影响的基础上,结合新旧刑诉法衔接阶段的自侦实务,做好对检察机关现有工作模式的相应调整。     

由“彭宇案”看裁判诚信与依良心审判——兼谈《民诉法》第13条第1款对法院和法官的适用性

＂彭宇案＂折射了社会的诚信危机和对裁判诚信的期待。《民诉法》第13条第1款诚信原则对法院和法官的＂适用性＂,包括法律宣示意义上的间接适用与裁判援引意义上的直接适用：前者毋庸置疑但不宜滥用,后者看似很美然功能有限。裁判诚信要求依法尽职裁判、禁止突袭裁判和不得滥用自由裁量权;民诉法诚信原则条款对法院和法官具有诚信引导、解决民诉法＂体系违反＂、衡平各方诉讼利益、事后惩戒等功能。裁判诚信的本质,是依照法律和程序,在遵循法律原则适用即衡平方法前提下的依良心审判。     

刑事视野中的过失危险行为犯罪化

国内外关于过失危险行为应否犯罪化存在很大争论.从刑事政策的角度来看,对部分过失危险行为犯罪化是现代社会发展的必然要求,但对犯罪化的过失危险行为的处罚要尽量经济合理,注重利用非刑罚方式预防过失犯罪的发生.     

论转化犯

转化性犯罪是刑法中一种普遍性现象,转化犯作为刑法的概念范畴为我国刑法理论学者首创.但是,各刑法理论学者对于转化犯的概念、特征及犯罪构成情况观点不一.转化犯不仅是我国刑事立法上概括的理论范畴,而且还是一种客观的犯罪事实现象,更是一种独立的刑法罪数形态理论体系,它有自己概念、特征、类型等基本范畴.我们的理论研究者不应该只是把它放在一种既定的规范解释层面来看待,更应该从罪数形态的理论模型来给予关怀.     

非正常撤诉--行政诉讼中的法律规避

撤诉是行政诉讼中的一种常见现象,实践中行政诉讼撤诉率居高不下乃是非正常撤诉大量增加所致,而非正常撤诉大量增加是当事人规避行政诉讼高昂诉讼成本的"理性"选择.分析行政诉讼的成本构成及其对当事人撤诉的影响,可以得出这样的结论,要减少非正常撤诉这一法律规避现象,就必须树立新的诉讼观念,改革现行的诉讼制度.     

Mixed Graphical Model Selection Using Holm's Procedure

The problem of selecting a graphical model is considered as a performing simultaneously multiple tests. The control of the overall Type I error on the selected graph is done using the so famous Holm's procedure. We prove that when we use a consistent edge exclusion test the selected graph is asymptotically equal to the true graph with probability at least equal to a fixed level 1 ? α. This method is then used for the selection of mixed concentration graph models by performing the χ²-edge exclusion test. We also apply the method to two classical examples and to simulated data. We compare the overall error of the selected model with the one obtained using the stepwise method. We establish that the control is better when we use the Holm's procedure.     

Operating Characteristics of a Subset Selection Procedure Applied to a Hybrid Randomized Response Model

The operating characteristics (OCs) of a subset ranking and selection procedure are derived for the hybrid randomized response model developed by Jia and McDonald (2009 Jia, F., McDonald, G. (2009). Analyzing hybrid randomized response data with a binomial selection procedure. Commun. Statist. Theor. Meth. 38:784807.[Taylor & Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]). The OCs include the probability of a correct P(CS), the individual selection probability γ_i, and the expected subset size E(S), under the slippage configuration or the equi-spaced configuration. An example comparing failure rates of contraceptive methods is used to illustrate the use of these new results.     

Bonferroni-type Plug-in Procedure Controlling Generalized Familywise Error Rate

Consider the multiple hypotheses testing problem controlling the generalized familywise error rate k-FWER, the probability of at least k false rejections. We propose a plug-in procedure based on the estimation of the number of true null hypotheses. Under the independence assumption of the p-values corresponding to the true null hypotheses, we first introduce the least favorable configuration (LFC) of k-FWER for Bonferroni-type plug-in procedure, then we construct a plug-in k-FWER-controlled procedure based on LFC. For dependent p-values, we establish the asymptotic k-FWER control under some mild conditions. Simulation studies suggest great improvement over generalized Bonferroni test and generalized Holm test.     

Classification procedures using principal component analysis and stepwise discriminant function

Classification procedures are examined in the case when the dimensionality exceeds the sample size. Two particular suggestions are (i) Principal components analysis and (ii) Two-step discriminant analysis. Comparisons are made in the two sample and the several sample cases. Extensions to growth curve model are investigated using the two stage discriminant analysis.     

An asymptotic distribution-free selection procedure for a two-way layout problem

This paper deals with an asymptotic distribution-free subset selection procedure for a two-way layout problem. The treatment effect with the largest unknown value is of interest to us. The block effect is a nuisance parameter in this problem. The proposed procedure is based on the Hodges-Lehmann estimators of location parameters. The asymptotic relative efficiency of the proposed procedure with the normal means procedure is evaluated. It is shown that the proposed procedure has a high efficiency.
