We have carried out a systematic investigation of the critical activation parameters (i.e., final temperature (673-1273 K), atmosphere (He vs. O-2/He), and final isothermal hold (1 min-15 h) on the generation of "alpha-sites", responsible for the direct N2 ...
Euclidean distance matrices (EDMs) are a major tool for localization from distances, with applications ranging from protein structure determination to global positioning and manifold learning. They are, however, static objects which serve to localize point ...
The paper introduces a novel, hierarchical preconditioner based on nested dissection and hierarchical matrix compression. The preconditioner is intended for continuous and discontinuous Galerkin formulations of elliptic problems. We exploit the property th ...
We address the problem of predicting aggregate vote outcomes (e.g., national) from partial outcomes (e.g., regional) that are revealed sequentially. We combine matrix factorization techniques and generalized linear models (GLMs) to obtain a flexible, effic ...
This paper is concerned with frequency domain theory for functional time series, which are temporally dependent sequences of functions in a Hilbert space. We consider a variance decomposition, which is more suitable for such a data structure than the varia ...
