"The use of information measures for model selection in geophysical models with subgrid parameterizations is examined. Although the resolved dynamical equations of atmospheric or oceanic global numerical models are well ...

"The placement of obstacles in front of doors is believed to be an effective strategy to increase the flow of pedestrians, hence improving the evacuation process. Since it was first suggested, this counterintuitive featu...

"Discrete Fracture and Matrix (DFM) models describe fractured porous media as complex sets of 2D planar polygons embedded in a 3D matrix representing the surrounding porous medium. The numerical simulation of the flow in...

"The ultimate purpose of the statistical analysis of ordinal patterns is to characterize the distribution of the features they induce. In particular, knowing the joint distribution of the pair entropy-statistical complex...

"The global energy crisis necessitates the development of sustainable energy sources, with nuclear fusion representing a significant long-term opportunity for the future. However, the licensing process for facilities lik...

Se presenta una guía para resolver y estudiar modelos de expectativas racionales dinámicas lineales (LDRE). Luego de codificar el modelo, se aplica una function simple para log-linealizarlo; simular los efectos de seri...

With this book, the same as in previous editions, Chapra and Canale intend to provide a solid training in numerical methods by means of a pleasant and attractive approach that motivates the reader to study the subject an...

We study the Jupiter family comet (JFC) population assumed to come from the Scattered Disk and transferred to the Jupiter’s zone through gravitational interactions with the Jovian planets. We shall define as JFCs those...

Maximum likelihood or restricted maximum likelihood (REML) estimates of the parameters in linear mixed-effects models can be determined using the lmer function in the lme4 package for R. As for most model-fitting functio...

Simulated annealing has been applied to seismic ray tracing to determine the minimum traveltime ray path connecting two points in complex 3-D media. In contrast to conventional ray tracing schemes such as shooting and be...

"This work describes the use of entomological studies combined with in silico models (computer simulations derived from numerical models) to assess the efficacy of a novel device for controlled release of spatial repel...

"Electroencephalography (EEG) system validation faces a fundamental challenge: the absence of ground truth when measuring human subjects. Physical head phantoms provide controlled testing environments with known signals;...

Much effort has been expended in the aerospace industry in order to achieve the highest quality standards required for nowadays technical and environmental necessities. This involves the increase of specific power and ov...

The assignment of the responsibility for different taxing powers is one of the most important problems in the theory and practice of fiscal federalism. The literature provides us with a set of general guidelines for the ...

We discuss some aspects of the evolution of the relative velocities of a swarm of planetesimals stirred by a protoplanet. We show that the prescriptions most commonly used in semi-analytical `oligarchic growth' models ov...

The history of the development of statistical hypothesis testing in time series analysis is reviewed briefly and it is pointed out that the hypothesis testing procedure is not adequately defined as the procedure for stat...

We propose a new model for active contours to detect objects in a given image, based on techniques of curve evolution, Mumford-Shah (1989) functional for segmentation and level sets. Our model can detect objects whose bo...

This classic text on multiple regression is noted for its nonmathematical, applied, and data-analytic approach. Readers profit from its verbal-conceptual exposition and frequent use of examples. The applied emphasis prov...

The authors present a new molecular dynamics algorithm for sampling the canonical distribution. In this approach the velocities of all the particles are rescaled by a properly chosen random factor. The algorithm is forma...

Function estimation/approximation is viewed from the perspective of numerical optimization in function space, rather than parameter space. A connection is made between stagewise additive expansions and steepest-descent m...
