Interval estimation for conformance proportions of multiple quality characteristics

A conformance proportion is an important and useful index to assess industrial quality improvement. Statistical confidence limits for a conformance proportion are usually required not only to perform statistical significance tests, but also to provide useful information for determining practical significance. In this article, we propose approaches for constructing statistical confidence limits for a conformance proportion of multiple quality characteristics. Under the assumption that the variables of interest are distributed with a multivariate normal distribution, we develop an approach based on the concept of a fiducial generalized pivotal quantity (FGPQ). Without any distribution assumption on the variables, we apply some confidence interval construction methods for the conformance proportion by treating it as the probability of a success in a binomial distribution. The performance of the proposed methods is evaluated through detailed simulation studies. The results reveal that the simulated coverage probability (cp) for the FGPQ-based method is generally larger than the claimed value. On the other hand, one of the binomial distribution-based methods, that is, the standard method suggested in classical textbooks, appears to have smaller simulated cps than the nominal level. Two alternatives to the standard method are found to maintain their simulated cps sufficiently close to the claimed level, and hence their performances are judged to be satisfactory. In addition, three examples are given to illustrate the application of the proposed methods.     

中国当代人口发展分析

以人为本的科学发展观必然要求我们在一切发展序列中首先关注人口发展,中国人口发展在中国社会发展框架中具有绝对优先的工具价值和目的意义.中国作为发展中国家与作为人口最多的国家两者之间在很大程度上具有互为因果的内在关系,充分认识中国人口发展现状具有多元化的重要意义.中国人口发展状况主要表现为人口数量多、人口质量低和人口结构不合理.中国人口现代化是中国其它现代化的强力引擎,中国人口发展的基本创新路径是城市化发展路径、市场化发展路径、民主化发展路径.

词语累赘与信息羡余

信息羡余是语言运用中加强信息传递的手段。信息羡余有两种加强信息的方式 :音节扩充 ,解释性叠加。语病重复是语句结构上的累赘 ,是应该删除的多余成分。保留信息羡余成分是“求繁” ,是信息传递的足量原则在起作用 ;删除累赘是“求简” ,是语言表达的经济原则在起作用 ,如何把握繁简的度 ,是语言规范工作所面临的一个难题。当前 ,语言规范化领域存在打击面过宽的偏向。区别“信息羡余”和“语病重复” ,可以从两方面考虑 :一是凭借人们的语感 ,一是参照表达实际。有时 ,是重复还是羡余 ,分界不是很清楚     

《孟子》中的单音节形容词研究

文章主要从量的角度对《孟子》中的单音节形容词的句法功能进行研究,通过与现代汉语形容词的特征比较,结果发现单音节形容词作谓语(不带宾语),单音节形容词作宾语,单音节形容词带宾语以及单音节形容词作定语是《孟子》中的单音节形容词的重要特征。     

Proportional reversed hazard rate model and its applications

The purpose of this paper is to study the structure and properties of the proportional reversed hazard rate model (PRHRM) in contrast to the celebrated proportional hazard model (PHM). The monotonicity of the hazard rate and the reversed hazard rate of the model is investigated. Some criteria of aging are presented and the inheritance of the aging notions (of the base distribution) by the PRHRM is studied. Characterizations of the model involving Fisher information are presented and the statistical inference of the parameters is discussed. Finally, it is shown that several members of the proportional reversed hazard rate class have been found to be useful and flexible in real data analysis.     

北魏孝文帝定姓族制度散论

北魏孝文帝实施定姓族 ,首先 ,它既是北魏汉化政策的继续和发展 ,也是北魏历史发展的客观需要 ,在当时具有一定的现实意义 ;其次 ,姓族制度的实施在消除民族间的隔阂、加强北魏政权的统治以及提高鲜卑人的文化水平等方面也起了一定的积极作用 ;其三 ,姓族制度的实施与北魏政权的政治有密切的关系 ,不同时期所发挥的作用不同 ,应作具体分析 ,不能说姓族制对北魏政权的灭亡起了最直接、最主要的作用。     

民营经济的资金需求：陕西个案研究

在对陕西4个地市进行调研的基础上,估算了该省民营经济的资金需求总量,并分析了其资金需求的结构。结果表明,民营经济的资金存在需求总量难以满足和供求结构失衡的矛盾,在目前国有金融体系支持有限的情况下,民营经济对民间资本产生了强烈的需求。因此解决民营经济融资困境的出路在于有效搭建民间资本投入到民营经济的桥梁和通道。

论资本质量与财务目标

从传统财务目标的缺陷在于忽视资本质量的分析入手 ,论述了资本质量是资本的内在规定性 ,是资本社会属性的总和与资本经济属性的质量方面 ;将资本质量引入财务目标是由资本的本质和财务的本质、资本质量与资本数量之间的关系、时代特征和国家财务所决定的 ,资本质量最优化与资本数量最大化是财务目标的必然选择 ;提出了资本质量考核指标体系。
