Blackouts risk evaluation by Monte Carlo Simulation regarding cascading outages and system frequency deviation

In this paper, a blackout risk assessment method is proposed considering the effects of cascading outages, the active power and frequency response of the system. Here, the Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) is used to analyze the risk of blackouts by generating ...

The Contact Process

Daniel Rodrigues Valesin

This work is a study of three interacting particle systems that are modified versions of the contact process. The contact process is a spin system defined on a graph and is commonly taken as a model for the spread of an infection in a population; transmiss ...

Multitype Contact Process on Z: Extinction and Interface

Daniel Rodrigues Valesin

We consider a two-type contact process on Z in which both types have equal finite range and supercritical infection rate. We show that a given type becomes extinct with probability 1 if and only if, in the initial configuration, it is confined to a finite ...

Display probability modulates attentional capture by onset distractors

Michael Herzog, Bilge Sayim

Attention can be stimulus-driven and bottom-up or goal-driven and top-down. Bottom-up attention and, particularly, attentional capture are often thought to be strongly automatic, i.e., not modulable. For example, in visual search, it has been shown that sa ...

Approximation of Event Probabilities in Noisy Cellular Processes

Maria-Emanuela-Canini Mateescu, Verena Wolf

Molecular noise, which arises from the randomness of the discrete events in the cell, significantly influences fundamental biological processes. Discrete-state continuous-time stochastic models (CTMC) can be used to describe such effects, but the calculati ...

An experimental analysis of the implicit choice set generation using the Constrained Multinomial Logit model

Michel Bierlaire, Gunnar Flötteröd, Ricardo Daniel Hurtubia González

In this paper, we compare two methods to model the formation of choice sets in the context of discrete choice models. The first method is the probabilistic approach proposed by Manski in 1977, who models the choice probability as the joint probability of s ...

A comparative analysis of implicit and explicit methods to model choice set generation

Michel Bierlaire, Gunnar Flötteröd, Ricardo Daniel Hurtubia González

In this paper, we compare two methods to model the formation of choice sets in the context of discrete choice models. The first method is the probabilistic approach proposed by Manski (1977), who explicitly models the choice set generation process by expre ...

Modulation of Attentional Capture by Display Probabilities in Visual Search

Michael Herzog, Bilge Sayim

Attentional capture is often thought to be automatic and not modulable. For example, visual search experiments showed that salient distractor singletons strongly capture attention even when they had to be ignored by the observers. Recently, however, it was ...

Permissiveness in Transactional Memories

Rachid Guerraoui, Vasu Singh

We introduce the notion of permissiveness in transactional memories (TM). Intuitively, a TM is permissive if it never aborts a transaction when it need not. More specifically, a TM is permissive with respect to a safety property

p

if the TM accepts every ...
