The “approaches to learning” framework is widely used in higher education. Unlike other learning styles models, a person’s approach to learning is seen as a function of the interaction between the learner, the discipline and the context (rather than as a f ...
We present a method to produce optical sinc-shaped Nyquist pulses with virtual zero roll-off factor based on the synthesis of phase-locked, rectangular-spectrum frequency combs. Tunability and reconfigurability are shown with
With the growing interest in the topic of attribute non-attendance, there is now widespread use of latent class (LC) structures aimed at capturing such behaviour, across a number of different fields. Specifically, these studies rely on a confirmatory LC mo ...
Transportation patterns in big cities are redefined by the growing trend of car ownership and usage costs (e.g. the initial cost of buying a car, the constantly growing fuel prices, additional maintenance and insurance costs and the increased parking deman ...
Responding to an impending demand growth at an existing reactive managed lane system, and in order to provide a timely and more effective temporary hard shoulder activation, short-term prediction models are developed. A lane-oriented attribute, namely the ...
Latent variable models provide valuable compact representations for learning and inference in many computer vision tasks. However, most existing models cannot directly encode prior knowledge about the specific problem at hand. In this paper, we introduce a ...
We present an a priori error analysis of a practical energy based atomistic/continuum coupling method (A. V. Shapeev, Multiscale Model. Simul., 9(3): 905-932, 2011) in two dimensions, for finite-range pair-potential interactions, in the presence of vacancy ...
Algorithms for distributed agreement are a powerful means for formulating distributed versions of existing centralized algorithms. We present a toolkit for this task and show how it can be used systematically to design fully distributed algorithms for stat ...
In contrast with expected utility theory, empirical findings indicate that decision-makers are sensitive to departures from reference points rather than states. Several tests of the reference-dependent preference framework have been carried out in experime ...
Attitudinal attributes play an important role in behavior of individuals in various contexts. In this study we focus on the travel behavior and our main objective is to come up with segments of individuals that have different mode choice preferences with t ...
