Simulated Distribution of the Kullback-Leibler Information Measure

This paper provides the percentiles obtained by simulation of an informational test statistic. It gives evidence that the widely used chi-square approximation to this test statistic is not suitable.     

Some inference results on pr(x < y) in the bivariate exponential model

This paper provides three different estimators for Pr(X < Y) when X and Y have a bivariate exponential distribution. The asymptotic variances of the three estimators are also derived. A test for the equality of the means of X and Y and confidence limits for the difference of the two means are presented. Our results are directly applicable in a reliability context with underlying bivariate exponential distribution.     

基于国际交流与合作提升土木工程专业教学质量的探索与实践

高校间的国际交流与合作是促进高校发展,提升高校教学水平的一个十分有效的途径。近年来,上海理工大学土木工程系积极与国外知名院校合作交流,为培养掌握多学科理论、具备较强实践能力、视野广阔的创新型人才奠定了基础。以和国外知名高校的交流与合作为例,总结了近几年土木工程专业教学的探索与实践,分析了当前国际合作中存在的一些问题,并提出了相应的对策建议。
