Mappings of finite distortion and asymmetry of domains
2013
We establish an anisotropic Bonnesen inequality for images of balls under homeomorphisms with exponentially integrable distortion. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 30C65, 46E35.
U.S. stock prices and macroeconomic fundamentals: Fresh evidence using the quantile ARDL approach
2020
This paper explores the long‐run relationship and the associated short‐run dynamics between the U.S. stock market and three major macroeconomic fundamentals, namely the U.S. industrial production index, the U.S. 10‐year Treasury bond yield and the West Texas Intermediate oil price, for the time period covering 1985–2015. The quantile autoregressive distributed lag (QARDL) model presented by Cho et al. (2015) Journal of Econometrics, 188, 281–300, which combines the autoregressive distributed lag model of Pesaran and Shin (1998), Cambridge University Press, and Pesaran et al. (2001) Journal of Applied Econometrics, 16, 289–326, and the quantile regression methodology of Koenker and Bassett (…
Indicators for a Comprehensive Evaluation of Academic Productivity in Higher Education
2003
This article reports the results of an evaluation of academic productivity of three academic departments of the University of Guadalajara, Mexico, through an interrelated system of evaluative indicators it is possible to construct an effective method for identifying the levels and degree of equilibrium in the academic productivity of an institution of higher education. The method used to evaluate the dimensions of departmental academic productivity permitted interpretation and analysis of the data in order to make comprehensive value judgments and recommendations. Thus, achievements in the areas of research, extension, and teaching were evaluated for the departments observed. The criteria…
A novel XML document structure comparison framework based-on sub-tree commonalities and label semantics
2012
International audience; XML similarity evaluation has become a central issue in the database and information communities, its applications ranging over document clustering, version control, data integration and ranked retrieval. Various algorithms for comparing hierarchically structured data, XML documents in particular, have been proposed in the literature. Most of them make use of techniques for finding the edit distance between tree structures, XML documents being commonly modeled as Ordered Labeled Trees. Yet, a thorough investigation of current approaches led us to identify several similarity aspects, i.e., sub-tree related structural and semantic similarities, which are not sufficient…
Building Ontologies from XML Data Sources
2009
In this paper, we present a tool called X2OWL that aims at building an OWL ontology from an XML datasource. This method is based on XML schema to automatically generate the ontology structure, as well as, a set of mapping bridges. The presented method also includes a refinement step that allows to clean the mapping bridges and possibly to restructure the generated ontology.
Ontology-based integration of XML data: Schematic marks as a bridge between syntax and semantic level
2007
This paper presents an ontology integration approach of XML data. The approach is composed of two pillars the first of which is based on formal language and XML grammars analysis. The second pillar is based on ontology and domain ontology analysis. The keystone of this architecture which creates a bridge between the two pillars is based on the concept of schematic marks introduced in this paper. These schematic marks make it possible to establish the link between the syntactic level and the semantic level for our integration framework.
Localization and separation of solutions for Fredholm integral equations
2020
[EN] In this paper, we establish a qualitative study of nonlinear Fredholm integral equations, where we will carry out a study on the localization and separation of solutions. Moreover, we consider an efficient algorithm to approximate a solution. To do this, we study the semilocal convergence of an efficient third order iterative scheme for solving nonlinear Fredholm integral equations under mild conditions. The novelty of our work lies in the fact that this study involves first order Frechet derivative and mild conditions. A numerical example involving nonlinear Fredholm integral equations, is solved to show the domains of existence and uniqueness of solutions. The applicability of the it…
On the integration of Riemann-measurable vector-valued functions
2016
We confine our attention to convergence theorems and descriptive relationships within some subclasses of Riemann-measurable vector-valued functions that are based on the various generalizations of the Riemann definition of an integral.
On Fuzzy Stochastic Integral Equations—A Martingale Problem Approach
2011
In the paper we consider fuzzy stochastic integral equations using the methods of stochastic inclusions. The idea is to consider an associated martingale problem and its solutions in order to obtain a solution to the fuzzy stochastic equation.
Martingale Convergence Theorems and Their Applications
2020
We became familiar with martingales X=(X n ) n∈N0 as fair games and found that under certain transformations (optional stopping, discrete stochastic integral) martingales turn into martingales. In this chapter, we will see that under weak conditions (non-negativity or uniform integrability) martingales converge almost surely. Furthermore, the martingale structure implies L p -convergence under assumptions that are (formally) weaker than those of Chapter 7. The basic ideas of this chapter are Doob’s inequality (Theorem 11.4) and the upcrossing inequality (Lemma 11.3).
