Risk, Return, and Equilibrium: Empirical Tests

This paper tests the relationship between average return and risk for New York Stock Exchange common stocks. The theoretical basis of the tests is the "two-parameter" portfolio ...

Evaluating Goodness-of-Fit Indexes for Testing Measurement Invariance

Abstract Measurement invariance is usually tested using Multigroup Confirmatory Factor Analysis, which examines the change in the goodness-of-fit index (GFI) when cross-group co...

Numerical solution of initial boundary value problems involving maxwell's equations in isotropic media

Maxwell's equations are replaced by a set of finite difference equations. It is shown that if one chooses the field points appropriately, the set of finite difference equations ...

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Large Language Models in Representing Textual Descriptions of Geometry and Spatial Relations (Short Paper)

This research focuses on assessing the ability of large language models (LLMs) in representing geometries and their spatial relations. We utilize LLMs including GPT-2 and BERT t...

2013 ESH/ESC Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension

The ESH/ESC Guidelines represent the views of the ESH and ESC and were arrived at after careful consideration of the available evidence at the time they were written.Health prof...

The Sequence of the Human Genome

A 2.91-billion base pair (bp) consensus sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human genome was generated by the whole-genome shotgun sequencing method. The 14.8-billion bp ...

Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance in 2019: a systematic analysis

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a major threat to human health around the world. Previous publications have estimated the effect of AMR on incidence, deaths, hospital lengt...

Superior Thermal Conductivity of Single-Layer Graphene

We report the measurement of the thermal conductivity of a suspended single-layer graphene. The room temperature values of the thermal conductivity in the range approximately (4...

APACHE II

This paper presents the form and validation results of APACHE II, a severity of disease classification system. APACHE II uses a point score based upon initial values of 12 routi...

Global, regional, and national incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability for 328 diseases and injuries for 195 countries, 1990–2016: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2016

On a Method to Measure Supervised Multiclass Model’s Interpretability: Application to Degradation Diagnosis (Short Paper)

In an industrial maintenance context, degradation diagnosis is the problem of determining the current level of degradation of operating machines based on measurements. With the ...
