Lightning location systems (LLSs) are often used to obtain parameters of lightning flashes. However, the imperfect detection efficiency (DE) of these systems affects the accuracy of the results. In this paper, we focus on the effects of the imperfect DE on ...
Common single-nucleotide variation in the host accounts for 25% of the variability in the plasma levels of HIV during the clinical latency stage (viral load set point). However, the role of rare variants and copy number variants remains relatively unexplor ...
We develop an effective distributed strategy for seeking the Pareto solution of an aggregate cost consisting of regularized risks. The focus is on stochastic optimization problems where each risk function is expressed as the expectation of some loss functi ...
Human brains can deal with sequences with temporal dependencies on a broad range of timescales, many of which are several order of magnitude longer than neuronal timescales. Here we introduce an artificial intelligence that learns and produces the complex ...
In this paper, we work on a class of self-interacting nearest neighbor random walks, introduced in [Probab. Theory Related Fields 154 (2012) 149-163], for which there is competition between repulsion of neighboring edges and attraction of next-to-neighbori ...
Feature fusion reflects temporal integration. Previous studies mostly employed foveal presentations with no attention manipulation. In this study we examined the effects of sustained spatial attention on temporal integration using feature-fusion with perip ...
An optical rangefinder based on time-of-flight measurement, radiates pulsed light toward an object (70), and receives reflected light from the object, the receiver operating in a photon counting mode, so as to generate a pulse for a detected photon. There ...
Decision making and planning with partial state information is a problem faced by all forms of intelligent entities. The formulation of a problem under partial state information leads to an exorbitant set of choices with associated probabilistic outcomes m ...
A method to generate thin micro-optical freeform (MOF) beam shapers by wrapping a much thicker freeform surface is provided. The influence of parameters such as the clipping factor q, the design wavelength and the spectrum of the light source into the qual ...
In gravel bed rivers, bed load transport exhibits considerable variability in time and space. Recently, stochastic bed load transport theories have been developed to address the mechanisms and effects of bed load transport fluctuations. Stochastic models i ...
