Recent experiments on DIII-D have focused on elucidating the drive mechanisms for intrinsic rotation in tokamak fusion plasmas. In H-mode plasmas, the effective torque at the edge (ρ > 0.8) associated with the intrinsic rotation shows a dependence on th ...
Parametric option pricing models are largely used in Finance. These models capture several features of asset price dynamics. However, their pricing performance can be significantly enhanced when they are combined with nonparametric learning approaches that ...
For phase estimation in digital holographic interferometry, a high-order instantaneous moments (HIM) based method was recently developed which relies on piecewise polynomial approximation of phase and subsequent evaluation of the polynomial coefficients us ...
Remifentanil, like the other sedative drugs used to achieve conscious sedation, has an impact on the efficiency of patient ventilation. Since the quality of breathing has an indirect effect on blood O2 and CO2 concentrations, keeping patients' blood homeos ...
Generalized Linear Models have become a commonly used tool of data analysis. Such models are used to fit regressions for univariate responses with normal, gamma, binomial or Poisson distribution. Maximum likelihood is generally applied as fitting method. I ...
Two-component mixture distributions with one component a point mass and the other a continuous density may be used as priors for Bayesian inference when sparse representation of an underlying signal is required. We show how saddlepoint approximation in suc ...
This paper addresses the problem of interpolating signals defined on a 2-d sphere from non-uniform samples. We present an interpolation method based on locally weighted linear and nonlinear regression, which takes into account the differences in importance ...
We present an extension of cross-recurrence analysis for dual gaze analysis which is suited for complex situations where for instance the objects of interest are not all visible at all times or when stimulus exploration is not homogeneous. The typicical si ...
We present here a head-mounted gaze tracking system for the study of visual behavior in unconstrained environments. The system is designed both for adults and for infants as young as 1 year of age. The system uses two CCD cameras to record a very wide fiel ...
In order to achieve reliable information about deterioration, it is important to differentiate between changes in structural behaviour due to service loading (temperature, wind and traffic) and changes resulting from damage when interpreting measurement da ...
