Truncation, Information, and the Coefficient of Variation

1989

The Fisher information in a random sample from the truncated version of a distribution that belongs to an exponential family is compared with the Fisher information in a random sample from the un- truncated distribution. Conditions under which there is more information in the selection sample are given. Examples involving the normal and gamma distributions with various selection sets, and the zero-truncated binomial, Poisson, and negative binomial distributions are discussed. A property pertaining to the coefficient of variation of certain discrete distributions on the non-negative integers is introduced and shown to be satisfied by all binomial, Poisson, and negative binomial distributions.

The Complex WKB Method

2019

In this chapter we shall study the exponential growth and asymptotic expansions of exact solutions of second-order differential equations in the semi-classical limit. As an application, we establish a Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization condition for Schrodinger operators with real-analytic complex-valued potentials.

Robust H<inf>∞</inf> control of Markovian jump systems with mixed time delays

2010

In this paper, the problem of stability analysis and control synthesis for Markovian jump linear systems with time delays and norm-bounded uncertainties is studied. The model under consideration consists of different time-invariant discrete, neutral and distributed delays. Delay-dependent sufficient conditions for the design of a mode-dependent delayed state feedback H ∞ control are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). A controller which guarantees stochastic stability and a prescribed level of H ∞ performance for the closed-loop system is then developed. A Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) method underlies the control design. A numerical example with simulation results i…

A Fixed Domain Approach in Shape Optimization Problems with Neumann Boundary Conditions

2008

Fixed domain methods have well-known advantages in the solution of variable domain problems, but are mainly applied in the case of Dirichlet boundary conditions. This paper examines a way to extend this class of methods to the more difficult case of Neumann boundary conditions.

$$\mathscr {K}$$-Convergence of Finite Volume Solutions of the Euler Equations

2020

We review our recent results on the convergence of invariant domain-preserving finite volume solutions to the Euler equations of gas dynamics. If the classical solution exists we obtain strong convergence of numerical solutions to the classical one applying the weak-strong uniqueness principle. On the other hand, if the classical solution does not exist we adapt the well-known Prokhorov compactness theorem to space-time probability measures that are generated by the sequences of finite volume solutions and show how to obtain the strong convergence in space and time of observable quantities. This can be achieved even in the case of ill-posed Euler equations having possibly many oscillatory s…

A Self-Contained Biometric Sensor for Ubiquitous Authentication

2007

This paper describes a real-life behavior framework in simulation game based on Probabilistic State Machine (PSM) with Gaussian random distribution. According to the dynamic environment information, NPC can generate behavior planning autonomously associated with defined FSM. After planning process, we illuminate Gaussian probabilistic function for real-life action simulation in time and spatial domains. The expected value of distribution is estimated during behavior planning process and variance is determined by NPC personality in order to realize real life behavior simulation. We experiment the framework and Gaussian PSM on a restaurant simulation game. Furthermore we give some suggestions…

An explicit unconditionally stable numerical solution of the advection problem in irrotational flow fields

2004

[1] A new methodology for the Eulerian numerical solution of the advection problem is proposed. The methodology is based on the conservation of both the zero- and the first-order spatial moments inside each element of the computational domain and leads to the solution of several small systems of ordinary differential equations. Since the systems are solved sequentially (one element after the other), the method can be classified as explicit. The proposed methodology has the following properties: (1) it guarantees local and global mass conservation, (2) it is unconditionally stable, and (3) it applies second-order approximation of the concentration and its fluxes inside each element. Limitati…

Excitation energies and photoabsorption oscillator strengths of the Rydberg series in CF3Cl. A linear response and quantum defect study.

2007

Vertical excitation energies of the CF(3)Cl molecule have been obtained from a response function approach with a CC reference function to determine absolute photoabsorption oscillator strengths in the molecular-adapted quantum defect orbital formalism (MQDO). The present work covers more highly excited Rydberg states than have been experimentally reported. Assessing of the reliability of the present calculations is provided through a comparative analysis between the results of the molecule and the Cl atom. This can be used to allow for predictions of the same type of properties in other analogous systems.

On the autocorrelation function of Rice processes for unsymmetrical doppler power spectral densities

2010

In this paper, we derive an analytical expression for the ACF of Rice processes in the general case of unsymmetrical Doppler power spectral densities. This expression, which is obtained based on the multidimensional Gaussian distribution approach, is shown to cover the ACF of Rayleigh processes as a special case. Various numerical examples are presented to illustrate the impact of the channel parameters on the ACF. Computer simulations, considering the von Mises distribution for the angle of arrivals, are also performed to check the validity of the analytical result. Finally, the analysis of the covariance spectrum is addressed.

Non-Stationary Probabilistic Response of Linear Systems Under Non-Gaussian Input

1991

The probabilistic characterization of the response of linear systems subjected to non-normal input requires the evaluation of higher order moments than two. In order to obtain the equations governing these moments, in this paper the extension of the Ito’s differential rule for linear systems excited by non-normal delta correlated processes is presented. As an application the case of the delta correlated compound Poisson input process is treated.
