标 题: Big Shot Investors Say No to IFRS
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Wed Nov 16 10:56:42 2011, 美东)
By Emily Chasan of WSJ
When SEC Chairman Mary Schapiro said in June that investors aren’t
clamoring for International Financial Reporting Standards, she may have been
understating things… a bit. Now, some of the biggest U.S. investor groups
are letting the SEC know in no uncertain terms that it should postpone its
decision on IFRS and even stop the converge... 阅读全帖 |

我想morphorlogy上的convergent evolution时要不要考虑起始物种的问题,比如鲸的
祖宗在海边找食吃时,它们的genome,或者说molecular pool在就和鱼类有了相当大的

这种百万年/上万个generation的molecular change,因为没有ancestor存在,基于进

而且convergent evolution/divergent evolution现象不少和物种灭绝/环境变化相关

the embryo starts from just a few cells, and become such a complex system.
This means at least several things:
1. the initial states is limited (I assume all the initial information is
stored above or equal to the molecular level),
2. from a few cells to a whole organism, not sure if the cells contains all
information for the organism, seems likely; brain maybe different.

Assuming that you have a good alignment with the most biological sense (
functional domain well aligned), good bootstrap value for ML and good
convergence for Bayesian Inference, regarding of the trees that are
generated from those different methods, you may have to distinguish them by
yourself by figuring out which one makes the most biological sense.

x*y 发帖数: 364 | 5 Help for reference of the following info.
Bilinear basis function (for 4-node quadrilateral element) yields higher
convergence rate than strict linear basis function (for 3-node triangular
element).
I can't find any book provides the info of the convergence rate for comparing
the linear and bilinear basis function. Could anybody by any chance know this?
Thanks! |
|
x*y 发帖数: 364 | 6 Now I'm also wondering about this.
I got my results that bilinear basis function (quadrilateral element in 2-D)
yields 1.89 convergence rate for conformation tensor (or elastic stress) and
linear basis function (tetrahedral element in 3-D) yields 1.65 convergence
rate for conformation tensor. I use DEVSS-SUPG method for viscoelastic flow
confpuation. A reference paper shows that DEVSS-SUPG method yields r+0.5 which
is 1.5 in my case. But I think 1.89 is far above 1.5, and my advisor thinks

it has 58,400,311 nonzeros
using preconditioned conjugate gradient method
it converges in 7 iterations.
If I use 32 processes, it only takes 0.28 seconds.
If I use 2 processes, it takes 5.29 seconds
The serial version converges in 4 iterations, taking 7.7 seconds. |

c*u 发帖数: 916 | 8 Which statistical method do you mean?
I just did a try. It looks like iteration works pretty well. Just need make
a guess of y_high and y_low, find the best thr. Then set y_high, y_low as
the mean values for xthr, find the thr again. Repeat the
iterations until converge. Only takes 2-5 iterations to converge.
Calculation
time is O(n) instead of O(n^3). For my data, it seems the fitting rarely
stuck in local maxima.
Sorry for the dumb question. |

Also Newton's method could fail to converge if starting too far away from
the optimum. |

n****t 发帖数: 170 | 13 For the z transform, we need to state the region of convergence. Different
region of convergence gives you different expansion. For example, X(z) = 1/(
z-1)= z^(-1)/(1-z^(-1)). If the ROC is outside the unit circle, x(n)=u(n-1),
which is causal; if the ROC is inside the unit circle, it is noncausal.
Actually for most cases, you only need to take a look at the ROC to tell
whether it is causal or not. |

this is not a counter example
by definition, \prod (1+a_n) converges if and only if
finite number of a_n are -1, and the partial products formed by the
nonvanishing factors tend to a finite limit which is different from 0

Hi DrumMania,
I do not have any convexity assumption on the objective function. If its
convex, then I think subgradient method and guarantee the convergence of
search to the optimum.
Can I ask the question another way: the steepest descent search method can
guarantee the convergence for what type of obj functions? Continuous and
smooth, and unimodular?
Thanks again,

e**********n 发帖数: 359 | 21 I guess sum bi and sum ai converge, which are given conditions. So inf{bi} =
inf{ai} = 0.
Under these conditions, this inequality is not true. Counter example:
a1 = 1, b1 = 11/10, x1 = 1, y1 = 8/5
a2 = 76/45, b2 = 11*a2/10, x2 = 1, y2 = 1/2
and the remaining numbers can be made arbitrarily small, and let their sums
not only converge but also
be arbitrarily small.
Obviously y1+y2>x1+x2, and all the conditions are satisfied. |

a****a 发帖数: 98 | 23 Based on the law of large numbers, the procedure will converge to the answer.
I don't know how many samples you need -- maybe 1000 should be more than
enough.
Though the number of possible permutations is large, it's still finite.
Similar algorithms based on sampling can work in cases where the sample
space has infinite number of elements.
You can easily write a program and test for the convergence.

q*****z 发帖数: 191 | 39 Hi,
I have been thinking about the question of how to use ratio test to estimate
the radius of convergence of a power series when it only has even or odd
terms. For example, I have a complicated power series f(x):
f(x) = 1+f2*x^2+f4*x^4+...
To do a ratio test, estimate the following limit:
lim(fn/fn+2)
Then the value obtained is radio of convergence, but is it r or r^2? The
unit matches with r^2 but I haven't seen such things anywhere.
Thanks. |

H****y 发帖数: 19 | 45 It's not (I-J/n)^n when n->infty, it should be Prod_n^infty (I-J/n)
If you take a ln, then the i^th diagonal element becomes Sum_n ln(1-Ji/n).
If you approximate ln(1-Ji/n) by -Ji/n, then it becomes Sum_n (-Ji/n), which
does not converge.
One can confirm this argument with Mathematica, using Ji=1, and calculate
Sum_n ln(1-1/n). You'll find the sum does not converge. |

k*******d 发帖数: 1340 | 47 I agree. The Ito integral is well defined in L_2 convergence sense. To get

But I think for application, we do not care too much about this. Even in
Shreve's book, this convergence concept is explained in the footnote.

d*e 发帖数: 843 | 48 Thanks.
What I thought was using Martingale Convergence Theorem.
Since I(t) is L^2-bounded, it should converge both in L^2 and a.s. sense.
Since the L^2 limit is 0 (under conditions given in previous posts),
the a.s. limit must be 0 as well.
Correct me if I'm wrong. |
|
M****i 发帖数: 58 | 49 You are welcome.
Generally speaking, the martingale convergence theorem can not be applied
here because I(t) is only a semimartingale, not a martingale:
I(t)=g(t)*M(t),
where
g(t)=exp(-\int_0^t c(r)dr)
M(t)=\int_0^t c(s)*exp(\int_0^s c(r)dr) dB(s).
Note that g(t) is of finite variation and only M(t) could be a martingale.
This can also be verified by my previous example
c(t)=1/(1+t). In this case I(t)=B(t)/(1+t), which is not a martingale, but
it converges to 0 a.s. by iterated logarithm.
