Circular Bernstein polynomial distributions
No full textThis paper introduces a new non-parametric approach to the modeling of circular data, based on the use of Bernstein polynomial densities which generalizes the standard Bernstein polynomial model to account for the specific characteristics of circular data. It is shown that the trigonometric moments of the proposed circular Bernstein polynomial distribution can all be derived in closed form. We comment on how to fit the Bernstein polynomial density approximation to a sample of data and illustrate our approach with a real data example.Circular data, Non-parametric modeling, Bernstein polynomials
Asymptotic properties of the Bernstein density copula for dependent data
No full textCopulas are extensively used for dependence modeling. In many cases the data does not reveal how the dependence can be modeled using a particular parametric copula. Nonparametric copulas do not share this problem since they are entirely data based. This paper proposes nonparametric estimation of the density copula for α-mixing data using Bernstein polynomials. We study the asymptotic properties of the Bernstein density copula, i.e., we provide the exact asymptotic bias and variance, we establish the uniform strong consistency and the asymptotic normality.nonparametric estimation, copula, Bernstein polynomial, α-mixing, asymptotic properties, boundary bias
Structured matrix methods for computations on Bernstein basis polynomials
No full textThis thesis considers structure preserving matrix methods for computations on Bernstein polynomials whose coefficients are corrupted by noise. The ill-posed operations of greatest common divisor computations and polynomial division are considered, and it is shown that structure preserving matrix methods yield excellent results.
With respect to greatest common divisor computations, the most difficult part is the computation of its degree, and several methods for its determination are presented.
These are based on the Sylvester resultant matrix, and it is shown that a new form of the Sylvester resultant matrix in the modified Bernstein basis yields the best results.
The B´ezout resultant matrix in the modified Bernstein basis is also considered, and it is shown that the results from it are inferior to those from the Sylvester resultant
matrix in the modified Bernstein basis

Das Moment der Ressourcenaktivierung im Ansatz der Integrativen Kinder- und Jugendlichenpsychotherapie: eine theoretische Skizze
No full textEs werden die theoretischen Prämissen, Arbeits-und Behandlungsmodelle der von Hilarion Petzold in Zusammenarbeit mit Bruno Metzmacher, Helmut Zaepfel und Nitza Katz-Bernstein entwickelten Integrativen Psychotherapie für Kinder und Jugendliche, unter ressourcenorientierten Gesichtspunkten skizziert. Dieser multimodale Ansatz verbindet tiefenpsychologische, leibtherapeutische, kognitiv-behaviourale und systemisch-lebensweltliche Perspektiven.The chapter outlines the theoretical premises, working and treatment models of integrative psychotherapy for children and adolescents as developed by Hilarion Petzold in collaboration with Bruno Metzmacher, Helmut Zaepfel and Nitza Katz-Bernstein, under resource-oriented aspects. This multimodal approach combines depth psychology, bodytherapeutic, cognitive-behavioral and systemic-life-world perspectives.https://www.fpi-publikation.de/polyloge/07-2019-zaepfel-h-metzmacher-b-katz-bernstein-n-ressourcenaktivierung-kinder-u-jugendliche/peerReviewedpublishedVersio

Applying the ideas of Bernstein in the context of in-company management education
No full textIdeas drawn from the sociology of education have had surprisingly little impact on debates on organizational learning. This article takes ideas drawn from the sociology of education and applies them to a subset of organizational learning, the rapidly growing in company management programmes supplied by higher education institutions. It is argued that such programmes are often populated by participants who traditionally might not have engaged in higher education, making the explanatory frameworks of Bourdieu and Bernstein (with their central focus on education and class) relevant. An application of the concepts of Bernstein points to a need to make the notion of `relevance' in education problematic and to reasons why some participants might find the realization of a competent performance difficult
