A Comparison of Partially Adaptive and Reweighted Least Squares Estimation

The small sample performance of least median of squares, reweighted least squares, least squares, least absolute deviations, and three partially adaptive estimators are compared using Monte Carlo simulations. Two data problems are addressed in the paper: (1) data generated from non-normal error distributions and (2) contaminated data. Breakdown plots are used to investigate the sensitivity of partially adaptive estimators to data contamination relative to RLS. One partially adaptive estimator performs especially well when the errors are skewed, while another partially adaptive estimator and RLS perform particularly well when the errors are extremely leptokur-totic. In comparison with RLS, partially adaptive estimators are only moderately effective in resisting data contamination; however, they outperform least squares and least absolute deviation estimators.     

我国区域刑事法律冲突初探

我国各民族之间的差异、民族区域自治制度及其自治权的存在是我国区域刑事法律冲突产生的基本原因,而通过制定顾全大局、兼顾特别的变通性、补充性刑法规范,可缓解这一冲突;通过加快少数民族地区的发展步伐,逐步消除民族之间的政治、经济、文化上的差距,进而达到彻底消除这一冲突,实现法制统一的良好局面。     

网络文学与文学本质

网络文学的出现再次激起我们对“文学本质”的追问。网络文学文本的生存形式从一个全新的层面给我们提供了一个较全面关照和认识文学 (及其传统 )的视角 ,只有以开放的心态和宽容的态度面对文学现实本身 ,我们才能更清楚地看清文学自身的逻辑 ,从而更接近和理解文学的本质。     

Sources of family violence

This paper suggests a direction for the exploration of the causes of family violence. Explanatory models of family violence were considered in this regard, with the recommendation that a multi-determined model should be considered to ensure the most accurate explanation. We suggest that family violence will be best understood and prevented or alleviated, if a model is used that considers the interaction of structural violence and the personality features of all the family members.

论"入世"后的职务犯罪及其防治

我国“入世” ,经济运行环境和行政管理模式将发生变化。关税减让、政务公开 ,减少了职务犯罪的机会 ;贸易自由、审批权集中 ,增大了职务犯罪的可能性。减少由“入世”给防治职务犯罪带来的消极影响 ,其根本措施仍是继续坚持“教育是基础 ,法制是保障 ,监督是关键”的方针 ,打防结合 ,标本兼治     

Contre-exemple au théorème de P.C. Consul sur la factorisation des distributions de Poisson généralisées

This note exhibits two independent random variables on integers, X₁ and X₂, such that neither X₁ nor X₂ has a generalized Poisson distribution, but X₁ + X₂ has. This contradicts statements made by Professor Consul in his recent book.     

SHOULD WE ESTIMATE THE PROBABILITY OF CORRECT SELECTION?

Various authors, given k location parameters, have considered lower confidence bounds on (standardized) dserences between the largest and each of the other k - 1 parameters. They have then used these bounds to put lower confidence bounds on the probability of correct selection (PCS) in the same experiment (as was used for finding the lower bounds on differences). It is pointed out that this is an inappropriate inference procedure. Moreover, if the PCS refers to some later experiment it is shown that if a non-trivial confidence bound is possible then it is already possible to conclude, with greater confidence, that correct selection has occurred in the first experiment. The short answer to the question in the title is therefore ‘No’, but this should be qualified in the case of a Bayesian analysis.     

论犯罪构成的诉讼机能

犯罪构成的阶层性或平面性。不能决定“法庭话语权的平衡”和刑法的人权保障机能。犯罪构成模式能够设置一定的诉讼规则，体现一定的诉讼职能和目标。大陆法系阶层递进式犯罪构成模式，设置的是普通法系的可废除诉讼规则。由于缺乏程序要件的保障，虽然有利于提高司法效率。却有损司法公平，不利于人权保障，不值得借鉴。     

切入“历史”后的视点——论“新历史小说”的叙事角度

“新历史小说”，自生成之日起就存在着命名、指认等一系列问题上的争议，这一现象的出现，除了与其自身内涵和外延的不确定性有关之外，还与其叙事上的独特角度密不可分。有鉴于此，结合“新历史小说”出现的时代背景，通过对其结构特质的三个主要方面，即第一人称视角与“历史”同步、聚焦变换与情感演绎、民间视野及其视点应用进行阐释，就成为一道重要的逻辑线索。
