Multiple-point geostatistical simulation (MPS) has recently become popular in stochastic hydrogeology, primarily because of its capability to derive multivariate distributions from a training image (TI).However, its application in three-dimensional (3-D) simulations has been constrained by the difficulty of constructing a 3-D TI.The object-based un
Atypical presentation of chronic myeloid leukemia with visual disturbance
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a clonal hematopoietic disorder characterized by a reciprocal translocation between chromosome 9 and 22 resulting in bcr-abl1 fusion Jackets gene.Patients usually present with symptoms of anemia, splenomegaly, and hyperleukocytosis.Initial presentation with visual disturbance, without other symptoms, is rare in CML
The debate about death: an imperishable discussion?
In this concise review we discuss some of the complex edges of the concept of death that arose after the notorious advances in science and medicine over the last 50 years, in which the classical cardio-pulmonary criteria have led to the neurological criteria of death.New complicated questions like the definition of death and the operational criteri
Asymptotic and Finite Sample Properties for Multivariate Rotated GARCH Models
This paper derives the statistical properties of a two-step approach to estimating multivariate rotated GARCH-BEKK (RBEKK) models.From the definition of RBEKK, the unconditional covariance matrix is estimated in the first step to rotate the observed variables in order to have the identity matrix for its sample covariance matrix.In the second step,
The influence of product innovation messages on the intention to purchase incumbent products
How do product innovation messages delay purchase intentions? Few studies offer answers to this question.Building on the literature of regulatory focus and framing effects, this study aims to identify the mechanism of the relationships among product innovation contents (i.e., performance advancements and price drops), reference time points (i.e., i
