We show that, if the nonlinear characteristic is a threshold-like function and the current generator is concentrated in a single point, as in the case of lightning or dielectric discharge, then the current flow is concentrated along a single path, which is a minimum path to the ground with ...
Another proposal that has drawn attention is theintegration of nonfinancial misconduct considerations into fitness and propriety assessments— the Conduct Rules (which set minimum standards of individual behavior) and Threshold Conditions (which represent minimum conditions that firms must meet to carry out...
Digital pathology poses unique computational challenges, as a standard gigapixel slide may comprise tens of thousands of image tiles1,2,3. Prior models have often resorted to subsampling a small portion of tiles for each slide, thus missing the important slide-level context4. Here we present Prov...
975,000, it is priced about 25-30% above the median home price in the city. But it is still priced below $2 million, which is the magical “affordability” threshold where most dual-income buyers can afford to buy.
The calculated 95% confidence level for the measurement of the EWS within the running window is shown by the dashed black and blue lines, respectively. The corresponding light blue curves are obtained numerically from the 1000 realizations. The green band in Fig. 4c corresponds to the green ...
Methodology: 1) Determine K subpopulations using PCA, remove outliers; 2) Mixture model of gene i in subpopulation k as gamma and normal distributions, estimate dropout probability d; 3) Impute dropout values by splitting the subpopulation into A (dropout larger than threshold t) and B (smaller...
(Novavax, Soberana, Abdala, Medigen, Sputnik Light and Janssen), which obtained all of their approvals after 228 days. The exception is Janssen, which is situated closer to the early arrivers, with 25% of its approvals obtained in 233.5 days, but still above the median threshold of 228 ...
We study 19 firm-level variables that may potentially drive tourism stock immunity to COVID-19. We follow the Fama and French (2015) five-factor model and define firm-level characteristics as follows: (1) market risk is measured with the stock market beta (BETA); (2) the size factor is...
The recent studies in the scenario planning literature revealed that the main benefits of using the scenario are to enhance the decision-making process and identify new issues that may arise in the future (SRI, 2016). At the corporate level, Shell is the world's most well-known company that...
Given a significance level (p’) of 0.01 and a CNV detection threshold ratio (r’) of 0.06, the theoretical minimum window size was determined by the default method89. The window size used for the detection of CNVs was 1.5× (default) the theoretical minimum window size. Using these ...
