On the Global Solvability of the Cauchy Problem for Singular Functional Differential Equations

Sufficient conditions are found for the global solvability of the weighted Cauchy problem where f : C([a, b]; R ⁿ) L _loc([a, b]; R ⁿ) is a singular Volterra operator, c ₀ R ⁿ, h : [a, b] [0, +] is a function continuous and positive on [a, b], and · is the norm in R ⁿ.

Gauss–Seidel Estimation of Generalized Linear Mixed Models With Application to Poisson Modeling of Spatially Varying Disease Rates

Generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) are often fit by computational procedures such as penalized quasi-likelihood (PQL). Special cases of GLMMs are generalized linear models (GLMs), which are often fit using algorithms like iterative weighted least squares (IWLS). High computational costs and memory space constraints make it difficult to apply these iterative procedures to datasets having a very large number of records.

We propose a computationally efficient strategy based on the Gauss–Seidel algorithm that iteratively fits submodels of the GLMM to collapsed versions of the data. The strategy is applied to investigate the relationship between ischemic heart disease, socioeconomic status, and age/gender category in New South Wales, Australia, based on outcome data consisting of approximately 33 million records. For Poisson and binomial regression models, the Gauss–Seidel approach is found to substantially outperform existing methods in terms of maximum analyzable sample size. Remarkably, for both models, the average time per iteration and the total time until convergence of the Gauss–Seidel procedure are less than 0.3% of the corresponding times for the IWLS algorithm. Platform-independent pseudo-code for fitting GLMS, as well as the source code used to generate and analyze the datasets in the simulation studies, are available online as supplemental materials.     

MR动态增强联合扩散加权成像技术在乳腺疾病诊断中的价值

目的探讨乳腺MR动态增强扫描联合扩散加权成像技术在乳腺疾病影像诊断中的价值。方法对48例女性乳腺患者进行MRI检查,先进行双侧乳腺常规MRI平扫,再进行双侧乳腺扩散加权平面回波（EPI）序列扫描,最后行乳腺动态增强扫描。通过后处理,得到病灶处表观弥散系数（ADC）值及时间-信号强度曲线。结果根据时间-信号强度曲线特点及ADC值,结合常规MRI形态学特点进行良、恶性病变诊断。MRI诊断为恶性肿瘤19例,良性病变29例。手术或活检病理结果证实MRI诊断为恶性肿瘤的19例患者中,18例为恶性肿瘤,另外1例为良性肿瘤（旺炽性腺瘤）;MRI诊断为良性病变的29例患者,手术或病理活检均证实为良性病变。MRI区分乳腺良、恶性病变的准确率为97.9%（47/48）,与手术或病理活检准确率（100%）比较差异无统计学意义（字2=0.044,P=0.834）。结论动态增强扫描联合扩散加权成像技术,可提高乳腺疾病影像诊断准确率。     

A nonclassical LIL for geometrically weighted series in Banach space

Let {X, Xn ; n ≥ 0} be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables, taking values in a separable Banach space (B,||·||) with topological dual B* . Considering the geometrically weighted series ξ(β) =∑∞n=0βnXn for 0 β 1, and a sequence of positive constants {h(n), n ≥ 1}, which is monotonically approaching infinity and not asymptotically equivalent to log log n, a limit result for(1-β2)1/2||ξ(β)||/(2h(1/(1-β2)))1/2 is achieved.
