Stream-based join algorithms got a prominent role in the field of real-time data warehouses. One particular type of stream-based joins is a semi-stream join where a single stream is joined with a disk -based relation. Normally the size of this disk-based relation is large enough and cannot be...

Two distribution free estimators are proposed to estimate the mean of a dependent variable after fitting a semiparametric two-part heteroscedastic regression model to a transformation of the dependent variable. We show that the proposed estimators are consistent and have asymptotic normal...
