A fuzzy decision support tool for demand forecasting
2007
In this paper we present a decision support forecasting system to work with univariate time series based on the generalized exponential smoothing (Holt-Winters) approach. It is conceived as an integrated tool which has been implemented in Visual Basic. For improving the accuracy of the automatic forecasting it uses an optimization-based scheme which unifies the stages of estimation of the parameters and selects the best method using a fuzzy multicriteria approach. The elements of the set of local minima of the non-linear programming problems allow us to build the membership functions of the conflicting objectives. A set of real data is analyzed to show the performance of our forecasting too…
Adaptive rational interpolation for cell-average
2020
Abstract In this paper, we extend the rational interpolation introduced by G. Ramponi et al. (1997, 1998, 1996, 1995) to the cell average setting. We propose a new family of non linear interpolation operator. It consists on constructing new approximations using a non linear weighted combination of polynomials of degree 1 or 2 to obtain new interpolations of degree 2 or 4 respectively. New weights are proposed and analyzed. Gibbs phenomenon is studied and some experiments are performed comparing the new methods with classical linear and non linear interpolation as Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO).
Nonlinear rotation-invariant pattern recognition by use of the optical morphological correlation.
2000
We introduce a modification of the nonlinear morphological correlation for optical rotation-invariant pattern recognition. The high selectivity of the morphological correlation is conserved compared with standard linear correlation. The operation performs the common morphological correlation by extraction of the information by means of a circular-harmonic component of a reference. In spite of some loss of information good discrimination is obtained, especially for detecting images with a high degree of resemblance. Computer simulations are presented, as well as optical experiments implemented with a joint transform correlator.
Dipolar coupling of nanoparticle-molecule assemblies: An efficient approach for studying strong coupling
2021
Strong light-matter interactions facilitate not only emerging applications in quantum and non-linear optics but also modifications of materials properties. In particular the latter possibility has spurred the development of advanced theoretical techniques that can accurately capture both quantum optical and quantum chemical degrees of freedom. These methods are, however, computationally very demanding, which limits their application range. Here, we demonstrate that the optical spectra of nanoparticle-molecule assemblies, including strong coupling effects, can be predicted with good accuracy using a subsystem approach, in which the response functions of the different units are coupled only a…
Optimal extension of multispectral image demosaicking algorithms for setting up a one-shot camera video acquisition system
2022
Multispectral images are acquired using multispectral cameras equipped with CCD or CMOS sensors which sample the visible or near infrared spectrum according to specific spectral bands. A mosaic of multispectral MSFA filters is superimposed on the surface of the sensors to acquire a raw image called an MSFA image. In the MSFA image, only one spectral band is available per pixel, the demosaicking process is necessary to estimate the multispectral image at full spatio-spectral resolution. Motivated by the success of single-sensor cameras capturing the image in a single exposure that use CFA filters, we performed a comparative study of a few recent color image demosaicking algorithms and experi…
NMR chemical shift calculations within local correlation methods: the GIAO-LMP2 approach
2000
A scheme for the calculation of NMR chemical shifts using local second-order Moller–Plesset (LMP2) perturbation theory together with gauge-including atomic orbitals (GIAOs) is presented. Test calculations on the basis of a preliminary implementation within a conventional GIAO-MP2 code show that the deviations between GIAO-LMP2 and GIAO-MP2 are small, e.g., for 13C typically less than 1 ppm, and that the GIAO-LMP2 approach holds great promise for application to larger molecules.
Anomalous d-like surface resonances on Mo(110) analyzed by time-of-flight momentum microscopy.
2015
The electronic surface states on Mo(110) have been investigated using time-of-flight momentum microscopy with synchrotron radiation (hν=35 eV). This novel angle-resolved photoemission approach yields a simultaneous acquisition of the E-vs-k spectral function in the full surface Brillouin zone and several eV energy interval. (kx,ky,EB)-maps with 3.4 A(-1) diameter reveal a rich structure of d-like surface resonances in the spin-orbit induced partial band gap. Calculations using the one-step model in its density matrix formulation predict an anomalous state with Dirac-like signature and Rashba spin texture crossing the bandgap at Γ¯ and EB=1.2 eV. The experiment shows that the linear dispersi…
Fast noniterative orbital localization for large molecules
2006
We use Cholesky decomposition of the density matrix in atomic orbital basis to define a new set of occupied molecular orbital coefficients. Analysis of the resulting orbitals ("Cholesky molecular orbitals") demonstrates their localized character inherited from the sparsity of the density matrix. Comparison with the results of traditional iterative localization schemes shows minor differences with respect to a number of suitable measures of locality, particularly the scaling with system size of orbital pair domains used in local correlation methods. The Cholesky procedure for generating orthonormal localized orbitals is noniterative and may be made linear scaling. Although our present implem…
Density gradient expansion of correlation functions
2013
We present a general scheme based on nonlinear response theory to calculate the expansion of correlation functions such as the pair-correlation function or the exchange-correlation hole of an inhomogeneous many-particle system in terms of density derivatives of arbitrary order. We further derive a consistency condition that is necessary for the existence of the gradient expansion. This condition is used to carry out an infinite summation of terms involving response functions up to infinite order from which it follows that the coefficient functions of the gradient expansion can be expressed in terms the local density profile rather than the background density around which the expansion is ca…
Landau-Zener problem in a three-level neutrino system with non-linear time dependence
2006
We consider the level-crossing problem in a three-level system with non-linearly time-varying Hamiltonian (time-dependence $t^{-3}$). We study the validity of the so-called independent crossing approximation in the Landau-Zener model by making comparison with results obtained numerically in density matrix approach. We also demonstrate the failure of the so-called "nearest zero" approximation of the Landau-Zener level-crossing probability integral.
