Parameter estimation for discretely observed linear birth-and-death processes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Sophie Myriam Hautphenne, Andrea Kraus

Birth-and-death processes are widely used to model the development of biological populations. Although they are relatively simple models, their parameters can be challenging to estimate, as the likelihood can become numerically unstable when data arise fro ...

The Emergence and Diffusion of Birth Limitation in Urban Areas of Developing Countries

Mathias Lerch

The rising heterogeneity of women in terms of family size over the course of the fertilitytransition challenges the classic hypothesis about the diffusion of birth limiting behaviors acrossparities, known as family limitation. We evaluate whether birth lim ...

Invited Tutorial Dynamatic: From C/C plus plus to Dynamically Scheduled Circuits

Paolo Ienne, Andrea Guerrieri, Lana Josipovic

High-level synthesis tools, both commercial and academic, typically rely on static scheduling to produce high-throughput pipelines. However, in applications with unpredictable memory accesses or irregular control flow, these tools need to make pessimistic ...

Extinction In Lower Hessenberg Branching Processes With Countably Many Types

Sophie Myriam Hautphenne

We consider a class of branching processes with countably many types which we refer to as Lower Hessenberg branching processes. These are multitype Galton-Watson processes with typeset X = {0, 1, 2,...}, in which individuals of type i may give birth to off ...

The asymmetric multitype contact process

Thomas Mountford, Daniel Rodrigues Valesin

We study the multitype contact process on Z(d) under the assumption that one of the types has a birth rate that is larger than that of the other type, and larger than the critical value of the standard contact process. We prove that, if initially present, ...

Finite element analysis of initial imperfection effects on kinking failure of unidirectional glass fiber-reinforced polymer composites

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Wei Sun

The compressive kinking behavior of non-slender unidirectional glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) specimens has been analyzed by finite element (FE) models. The experimentally observed imperfections, including the initial fiber waviness throughout the e ...

Risk prediction of developing venous thrombosis in combined oral contraceptive users

Emmanuelle Logette, Valérie Buchillier

Background Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a complex multifactorial disease influenced by genetic and environmental risk factors. An example for the latter is the regular use of combined oral contraceptives (CC), which increases the risk to develop VTE by ...

Functional Central Limit Theorem for the Interface of the Symmetric Multitype Contact Process

Thomas Mountford, Daniel Rodrigues Valesin

We study the interface of the symmetric multitype contact process on Z. In this process, each site of Z is either empty or occupied by an individual of one of two species. Each individual dies with rate 1 and attempts to give birth with rate 2R lambda; the ...
