As more generic drugs become available, the quality, safety, and efficacy of generic drugs have become a public concern. Specifically, drug interchangeability among generic copies of the same brand-name drug is a safety concern. This research proposes a Bayesian method for assessing bioequivalence between two generic copies of the same brand-name drug from two independent $2{\times}2$ crossover design experiments. Uninformative priors are considered for general use and the posterior distribution of the difference of two generic drug effects is derived from which the highest probability density interval can be evaluated. Examples are presented for illustration.

This thesis is on the character naming which plays much of a role in the cultural contents, but it is beyond the research of character naming itself and is based on the needs of research for character naming in game, fairy tale, comic and animation. In fact, there are some books and theses showing us the way to create names of products and this area is known as brand naming. But it is not easy for people to find books on character naming which is only focused on the characters in all fictions. While a brand name is made to secure a brand identity which is fundamental to consumer recognition and symbolizes the brand's differentiation from competitors, a character name is the name of living thing in the fiction. So, people say that these two areas are similar to each other or not. This these is the consequence of the research on the character naming, especially how to figure it out and how to use it. I hope that my paper would be a little help for those who work for the creating of the characters involved in shape, personality, role and storytelling in the field of fictions through the interest and understanding of Character Naming.
