商业秘密法律保护模式探讨——兼论我国立法的完善

对于商业秘密的立法保护,既有"行为法"模式,也有"权利法"模式。前者侧重于规制侵犯商业秘密的不正当竞争行为,强调竞争秩序的维护及社会公共利益的保护,形为"宽保护",实为"弱保护";后者侧重于保护权利人的商业秘密权,强调私权保护,形为"窄保护",实属"强保护"。厘清并强调商业秘密的知识产权属性,对确立商业秘密的权利法保护将起着重要的影响乃至决定作用。我国立法现状及司法实践,都亟待权利法的"强保护",即以权利法为中心,以行为法为补充的综合立法保护。     

Gamma failure‐time mixture models: yet another way to establish efficacy

Using a Yamaguchi‐type generalized gamma failure‐time mixture model, we analyse the data from a study of autologous and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in the treatment of high‐risk refractory acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, focusing on the time to recurrence of disease. We develop maximum likelihood techniques for the joint estimation of the surviving fractions and the survivor functions. This includes an approximation to the derivative of the survivor function with respect to the shape parameter. We obtain the maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters. We also compute the variance‐covariance matrix of the parameter estimators. The extended family of generalized gamma failure‐time mixture models is flexible enough to include many commonly used failure‐time distributions as special cases. Yet these models are not used in practice because of computational difficulties. We claim that we have overcome this problem. The proposed approximation to the derivative of the survivor function with respect to the shape parameter can be used in any statistical package. We also address the issue of lack of identifiability. We point out that there can be a substantial advantage to using the gamma failure‐time mixture models over nonparametric methods. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Asymptotic Results of a Nonparametric Conditional Quantile Estimator for Functional Time Series

We consider the estimation of the conditional quantile function when the covariates take values in some abstract function space. The main goal of this article is to establish the almost complete convergence and the asymptotic normality of the kernel estimator of the conditional quantile under the α-mixing assumption and on the concentration properties on small balls of the probability measure of the functional regressors. Some applications and particular cases are studied. This approach can be applied in time series analysis to the prediction and building of confidence bands. We illustrate our methodology with El Niño data.     

On Nonparametric Maximum Likelihood Estimations of Multivariate Distribution Function Based on Interval-Censored Data

This article considers the nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator (NPMLE) of a joint distribution function when the multivariate failure times of interest are interval-censored. With different types of interval censoring mechanism, the NPMLE's of the multivariate distribution function are studied and the strong consistency for the NPMLEs is obtained in terms of a self-consistency equation. Furthermore, the convergence rate of the estimator is given, which depends on the types of interval censoring mechanism.     

Strong Gaussian Approximations of Product-Limit and Quantile Processes for Strong Mixing and Censored Data

In this article, we consider the product-limit quantile estimator of an unknown quantile function under a censored dependent model. This is a parallel problem to the estimation of the unknown distribution function by the product-limit estimator under the same model. Simultaneous strong Gaussian approximations of the product-limit process and product-limit quantile process are constructed with rate O[(log n)^?λ] for some λ > 0. The strong Gaussian approximation of the product-limit process is then applied to derive the laws of the iterated logarithm for product-limit process.     

On the Multivariate Two-Sample Problem Using Strong Approximations of Empirical Copula Processes

In this article, we establish optimal rates for the strong approximation of empirical copula processes in ?² by sequences of Gaussian processes. These results are applied to investigate Cramér–von Mises-type statistics.     

Normal Deviation and Poisson Approximation of a Security Market by the Geometric Markov Renewal Processes

We consider the geometric Markov renewal processes (GMRP) as a model for a security market. Normal deviations of the geometric Markov renewal processes for ergodic averaging and double averaging schemes are derived. We introduce Poisson averaging scheme for the geometric Markov renewal processes. European call option pricing formulas for GMRP are presented.
