A new connectionist model for the solution of piecewise lin- ear regression problems is introduced; it is able to reconstruct both con- tinuous and non continuous real valued mappings starting from a finite set of possibly noisy samples. The approximating ...
Following ICOM’s participation in the redaction of a new recommendation for the evaluation of existing railway-bridges, in collaboration with the SBB/CFF, new questions have been raised. Among those, the influence of a welded longitudinal attachment ends s ...
n this paper we compute the influence function and change-of-variance function of M-quantiles and deduce those of quantiles and expectiles as a special case. A redescending M-quantile constructed with Tukey's biweight is also studied. ...
It is quite difficult to construct circuits of spiking neurons that can carry out complex computational tasks. On the other hand even randomly connected circuits of spiking neurons can in principle be used for complex computational tasks such as time-warp ...
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate a method which can be used to select relevant input variables for non-linear regression. The proposed method is an extension to the concept of SOM such that the linear correlation coefficient is computed over a wh ...
In this paper, several probabilistic models for evaluating the fatigue performance of post-weld treated tubular bridge structures are briefly described. The application of the models is then demonstrated on a full-scale example bridge. Under realistic traf ...
A new separation technique has been developed to determine the forward and backward running arterial pressure wave components. It takes into account friction as well as nonlinear effects due to convective acceleration and to the pressure dependence of the ...
A novel method for the detn. of partition coeffs. in aq.-org. two-phase systems is described. It is applicable for characterizing the distribution of substances undergoing proton dissocn. in the aq. phase. The method is based on titrn. by means of the org. ...
In this study, the multiaxial fatigue strength of full-scale transversal attachment is assessed and compared to original experimental results and others found in the literature. Mild strength S235JR steel is used and an exploratory investigation on the use ...
