Pulse Shape Discrimination for a Fast Neutron Detector
Start Date: 03/19/2009 We are developing a detector that uses liquid scintillator loaded with 6 Li for the efficient measurement of fast neutrons and their energy. The … more
Exponential Smoothing and State-Space Modeling
Start Date: 03/18/2009 Exponential smoothing methods for forecasting are sometimes regarded as a relic of the 1960s or, at best as a special case of simple ARIMA models. … more
Confidence Sets for Parameters of a Linear Model and Dirichlet Averages
Start Date: 03/04/2009 A method is suggested for constructing a conservative confidence region for the parameters of a linear model on the basis of a linear estimator. … more
Metrology for Gene Expression: Measurement Batch Effects, Probe Sensitivity, Gene List Reproducibility
Start Date: 02/25/2009 As for other measurements, metrology for gene expression involves issues such as sources of measurement variation, measurement calibration, and … more
Experimental Design in the Scheduling of Two Unrelated Parallel Processors
Start Date: 02/18/2009 Given a group of tasks and two non-identical processors with the ability to complete each task, which tasks should be assigned to which processor … more
