Least squares and the not-Normal Equations by Wathen, AJ

“…<br> The linear least squares problem is one such: excellent algorithms exist when QR factorisation is feasible. However for large-dimensional (often sparse) linear least squares problems there are currently good solution algorithms only for well-conditioned problems or for problems where there is lots of data but only a few variables in the solution. …”

Background matters, but not whether parents are immigrants: outcomes of children born in Denmark by Jensen, M, Manning, A

“…This paper shows that children born in Denmark with immigrant parents (first-generation locals) have lower earnings, higher unemployment, less education, more welfare transfers, and more criminal convictions than children with local-born parents. However, when we condition on parental socio-economic characteristics, first-generation locals generally perform as well or slightly better than the children of locals. …”

Effectiveness of antioxidants in refined, bleached and deodorized palm olein by Augustin, M. A., Berry, S. K.

“…The addition of antioxidants butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), propyl gallate (PG), tertiary butylhydroquinone (TBHQ), dilaurylthiodipropionate (DLTDP), and trihydroxybutyrophenone (THBP) at a level of 200 ppm to refined, bleached and deodorized (RBD) palm olein resulted in the retardation of the oxidative deterioration of the oil when stored at 60 C for a period of 10 weeks. The extent of oxidative deterioration was determined by measuring the peroxide and anisidine values and E 1 cm 1% at 232 nm and 268 nm of the oil. …”

Shape-controlled synthesis and application of one-dimensional cadmium chalcogenide nanocrystals by Xi, Lifei

“…Using the hot coordinating solvents method, good size distribution, controllable growth and an aspect ratio as high as 170 has been achieved. This is significant because in the past fifteen years, this method has only been able to generate low aspect ratio nanorods (less than 20). …”
