Skew estimation for document images
… the authora??s efforts in developing a series of skew estimation models for document images, which include the fiducial-line based which relies on the existence of text lines, the convex-hull based which relies on the existence of paragraphs or columns, and the straight-edge based which relies on …

Skew Normal Bayesian Asset Allocation
… a Bayesian asset allocation problem based on the skew-normal distribution assumption and extends the Bayesian asset allocation model obtained by assuming hidden truncation skew-normal returns. Hidden truncation model provides a flexible family of skewed alternatives to the classical k dimensional …

Stability and vibration characteristics of skew plates
… of the stability and vibration problems of skew plates, on the other hand, have not received much attention, and only a few problems of this type have been Investigated. This may be due to the difficulties that arise from the geometric configuration of these plates in the analysis. For this …

Two approaches to modelling the volatility skew
… two approaches to modelling the volatility skew that is used to price options on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) TOP40 index. The first approach involves using historical prices of the underlying index to obtain a model of the skew. Two models that use this approach, namely the …

Small and large deflection of clamped skew sandwich plates.
… of the small and large deflection behaviour of skew sandwich plates with built-in edges and subjected to a uniformly distributed load is investigated. Non-linear partial differential equations governing the load-displacement relationship for such plates are derived using the principle of minimum …

Biobehavioral responses to immune skew and free fatty acids
… environment altered by the endogenous immune skew (Gordon and Martinez, 2010). Shifting of cytokine skew has the capability to affect not only the immune and behavioral responses to exogenous stimuli, but to potentially alter biobehaviors observed in the naïve state (Moon et al., 2011). To …

SHA-less pipeline ADC design with sampling clock skew calibration
… in a SHA-less architecture the sampling clock skew between the sub-ADC and the multiplying digital-to-analog converter (MDAC) in the pipeline first stage results in gross conversion errors at high input frequencies. This skew effect is aggravated in a SHA-less multi-bit-per-stage pipeline …

On the exact simulation of (skew) Brownian diffusions with discontinuous drift
… of real-valued Brownian diffusions: multi-skew Brownian motions with constant drift and Brownian diffusions whose drift admits a finite number of jumps. The skew Brownian motion was introduced in the sixties by Itô and McKean, who constructed it from the reflected Brownian motion, flipping …

Elastic and ultimate behaviour of skew composite slab-on-steel girder bridges.
… simply supported and two-equal-span continuous skew composite concrete slab on compact steel girder bridges. Detailed parametric studies were conducted to find the effect of several parameters upon the load distribution characteristics in skew bridges at different stages of loading. In this …

Two generalizations of the skew-normal distribution and two variants of McCarthy's theorem
… The first and major part is concerned with the skew-normal distribution, introduced by Azzalini (1985) [6], while the second one is connected with the scoring rules. In part one the problem of finding confidence intervals for the skewness parameter of the skew-normal distribution is addressed. …

Calibration of sampling clock skew in high-speed, high-resolution time-interleaved ADCs
… issues such as gain, offset, and sampling clock skew between channels degrade the overall time-interleaved ADC performance. Of these issues, sampling clock skew between channels is the biggest problem in high-speed and high-resolution, time-interleaved ADCs as errors due to sampling clock skew …
