  • On HuSanxing's Position in the Historical Study of the East Zhejiang Province
    Journal of Wenzhou Normal College, 2006
    Co-Authors: Cai Ke-jiao
    Abstract:

    ZiZhiTongJianYinZhu written by Hu Sanxing enjoys a high position in the Study of China's historiography. Hu Sanxing's historiographical thought and traits have some same points with the historiographers who came from the east Zhejiang province in the early Nan Song Dynasty. Moreover his historiographical thought has an important effect on the historiography in Ming and Qing Dynasty, Therefore he has a position of inheriting the past and ushering the future in the Historical Study of the east Zhejiang province.

  • Nationalism and Historical Study of the East Zhejiang Province
    Journal of Wenzhou Teachers College, 2004
    Co-Authors: Cai Ke-jiao
    Abstract:

    The Historical Study of the East Zhejiang Province refers to the regional school of Historical science with inherited and similar research principles and approaches. This Historical research school started to take shape during the South Song Dynasty and continued developing from the Yuan Dynasty until The late years of the Qing Dynasty, resulting in nationalism as one of the distinctive characteristics.

  • “Maillard products” and “Maillard reactions” are much discussed in food science and technology, but do such products and reactions deserve their name?
    Notes Académiques de l'Académie d'Agriculture de France (N3AF), 2016
    Co-Authors: Herve This
    Abstract:

    Whereas the number of scientific and technical publications dealing with “Maillard reactions” is increasing in food science and technology, in particular due to the importance of non-enzymatic browning during food production, the expressions “Maillard reaction” and “Maillard products” remain vague, and different authors have different definitions. A Historical Study of the scientific researches on the reactions between sugars, on the one hand, and compounds containing an amino group on the other hand, shows that only the initial condensation of reducing sugars and peptides or proteins should be called Maillard reaction. The complex reaction pattern that follows this initial condensation should be explored more quantitatively, in order to assess the comparative kinetics of the various reaction pathways leading to the numerous compounds which are finally produced.

  • Brevets et émergence de l'industrie cinématographique, une étude comparative Etats-Unis - Europe (1895-1908)
    2006
    Co-Authors: Pierre-andré Mangolte
    Abstract:

    The Historical emergence of the film industry in the United States and in Europe between 1895 and 1908 is analyzed in relation with the importance of the institution of patents (or « brevets d'invention ») and how it fosters economic activity. The theories and economic justifications of the patent institutions are studied in both countries. This period is dominated on the American side by the claims of the inventor Thomas Edison, which led to a prolonged war about patents which strongly handicapped the production and gave rise to the monopoly of the Motion Picture Patents Company (MPPC). Conversely, in Europe, more particularly in France, one notes a fast rise of multiple film production companies in a directly competing form. The systematic comparative analysis will then highlight the causes of these so dissimilar evolutions, i.e. two Historical configurations of the rights of intellectual propriety and two different definitions of the institution of patent. This Historical Study can thus inform the recurring theoretical debate in the past as well as today on the definition, the width, the depth and the reinforcement of patent.

  • Patents and the Emergence of the Film Industry in the United States and Europe: A Comparative Study (1895–1908)
    Annales. Histoire Sciences Sociales, 2006
    Co-Authors: Pierre-andré Mangolte
    Abstract:

    Patents and emergence of the film industry in the United States and in Europe. A comparative Study (1895-1908) The Historical emergence of the film industry in the United States and in Europe between 1895 and 1908 is analyzed in relation with the importance of the institution of patents (or “brevets d’invention”) and how it fosters economic activity. The theories and economic justifications of the patent institutions are studied in both countries. This period is dominated on the American side by the claims of the inventor Thomas Edison, which led to a prolonged war about patents which strongly handicapped the production and gave rise to the monopoly of the Motion Picture Patents Company (MPPC).

  • Power priors based on multiple Historical studies for binary outcomes
    Biometrical Journal, 2018
    Co-Authors: Isaac Gravestock, Leonhard Held
    Abstract:

    Incorporating Historical information into the design and analysis of a new clinical trial has been the subject of much recent discussion. For example, in the context of clinical trials of antibiotics for drug resistant infections, where patients with specific infections can be difficult to recruit, there is often only limited and heterogeneous information available from the Historical trials. To make the best use of the combined information at hand, we consider an approach based on the multiple power prior that allows the prior weight of each Historical Study to be chosen adaptively by empirical Bayes. This choice of weight has advantages in that it varies commensurably with differences in the Historical and current data and can choose weights near 1 if the data from the corresponding Historical Study are similar enough to the data from the current Study. Fully Bayesian approaches are also considered. The methods are applied to data from antibiotics trials. An analysis of the operating characteristics in a binomial setting shows that the proposed empirical Bayes adaptive method works well, compared to several alternative approaches, including the meta-analytic prior.
