A spatial multiple membership model formalizes the effect of neighborhood affluence on antenatal smoking. The data are geocoded New Jersey birth certificate records linked to United States census tract-level data from 1999 to 2007. Neighbor...
A Discrete-Time Branching Process Model of Yeast Prion Curing Curves [0.03%]

The infectious agent of many neurodegenerative disorders is thought to be aggregates of prion protein, which are transmitted between cells. Recent work in yeast supports this hypothesis, but suggests that only aggregates below a critical si...
Unobserved heterogeneity can confound the effect of education on mortality [0.03%]
未观察到的异质性可以混淆教育对死亡率的影响关系

Anna Zajacova
Two opposing hypotheses were proposed to explain the lifecourse pattern in the effect of education on mortality: "cumulative advantage," where the education effect becomes stronger with age, and "age-as-leveler," where the effect becomes we...
Asymptotic behavior of cell populations described by two-type reducible age-dependent branching processes with non-homogeneous immigration() [0.03%]

"Over the last one hundred years, there has been, in many developed countries, a demographic convergence towards the two child family. The possible implications for population growth of such a tendency are considered in this paper in terms ...

"Models of the interaction of population, the economy, and the environment often contain nonlinear functional relationships and variables that move at different speeds. These properties foster apparent unpredictabilities in system behaviour...
An age-structured model of population dynamics with dominant ages, delayed behavior, and oscillations [0.03%]

"An age-structured model of population dynamics with age-dominance is proposed and analyzed. Existence and uniqueness of solutions are established as well as the uniqueness and local asymptotic stability of steady-states. Conditions for con...
