TL;DR: In this paper, a link between frontier estimation and extreme value theory has been established, and several approaches exist for introducing environmental variables into production models; both two-stage approaches, in which estimated efficiencies are regressed on environmental variables, and conditional efficiency measures, as well as the underlying assumptions required for either approach, are examined.
Abstract: Nonparametric estimators are widely used to estimate the productive efficiency of firms and other organizations, but often without any attempt to make statistical inference. Recent work has provided statistical properties of these estimators as well as methods for making statistical inference, and a link between frontier estimation and extreme value theory has been established. New estimators that avoid many of the problems inherent with traditional efficiency estimators have also been developed; these new estimators are robust with respect to outliers and avoid the well-known curse of dimensionality. Statistical properties, including asymptotic distributions, of the new estimators have been uncovered. Finally, several approaches exist for introducing environmental variables into production models; both two-stage approaches, in which estimated efficiencies are regressed on environmental variables, and conditional efficiency measures, as well as the underlying assumptions required for either approach, are examined.

TL;DR: A facile method has been developed to prepare aqueous dispersions of encapsulated conjugated polymer nanoparticles exhibiting high fluorescence brightness and functionalization of the nanoparticle with amine groups followed by the addition of Au nanoparticles resulted in the formation of nanoparticle assemblies.
Abstract: A facile method has been developed to prepare aqueous dispersions of encapsulated conjugated polymer nanoparticles exhibiting high fluorescence brightness. Salient features of the nanoparticles include their small diameter and spherical morphology. Encapsulation of the nanoparticles with a silica shell reduces the rate of photooxidation and allows facile attachment of functional groups for subsequent bioconjugation and nanoparticle assembly. Functionalization of the nanoparticle with amine groups followed by the addition of Au nanoparticles resulted in the formation of nanoparticle assemblies, as evidenced by the efficient quenching of the conjugated polymer fluorescence by the Au nanoparticles.

TL;DR: It is shown that 6mA is extensively present in the human genome, and 881,240 6mA sites accounting for ∼0.051% of the total adenines are cataloged, and [G/C]AGG[C/T] was the most significantly associated motif with 6mA modification.

TL;DR: In this article, a structural deterioration reliability model is developed to calculate probabilities of structural failure (flexure) for a typical reinforced concrete continuous slab bridge, assuming that corrosion will lead to a reduction in the cross-sectional area of the reinforcing steel.
