For a number of genetically influenced illnesses, age of onset is correlated between relatives. In some cases, age of onset also serves as an index of an individual's inherited liability to an illness. Typically, survival models for age of onset distributions do not allow for these effects. We have
## Abstract Radar estimates of rainfall are being increasingly applied to flood forecasting applications. Errors are inherent both in the process of estimating rainfall from radar and in the modelling of the rainfallβrunoff transformation. The study aims at building a framework for the assessment o
A new approach to the dynamic modeling of chemical kinetics is presented. The technique is based on systematic planning of computer experiments, which allows an empirical model for the computed responses to he developed in the space of parameters. The empirical equations which are obtained provide c
