Maximum Likelihood Estimation

description: In this paper, we consider a record-based transmuted version of Power Lomax distribution and it is named as Record-based Transmuted Power Lomax (RTPL) distribution. Further, we present several statistical properties of the proposed distribution such as moments, quantiles, stochastic ordering, order statistics, and its explicit expressions. Some of its reliability measures such as survival function, hazard function, cumulative hazard function, mean residual time, and mean inactivity time is also discussed. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the parameters of the RTPL distribution and this new extended model is applied to a real datasets to access the suitability and applicability of the model based on well-known information criteria and test for goodness of fit. The simulation study is performed to verify the efficiency and asymptotic behavior of the maximum likelihood estimators.

description: The system in industries is greatly impacted by failure. Eliminating these defects is therefore essential for enhancing system performance. This study aims to assess the range of repair/replacement facilities in the GDC (Gravity Die Casting) system at the Piston Foundry Plant. Two sub-units are connected to one main unit, which makes up the GDC system. Any component failure results in system failure. In this situation, the system will first attempt to be repaired, and if that is unsuccessful, it will be replaced. To operate effectively, the primary unit needs to be built of aluminium alloy (Al). Lack of raw materials is what leads to a system failing.Using semi-Markov processes and the regenerating point method, the aforementioned measurements were computed numerically and graphically. The results of this study are unusual since no prior research has concentrated on the GDC system repair/replacement facilities at piston foundries. The conclusions, according to the discussion, are very helpful for businesses who manufacture pistons and utilise the GDC system.

description: This paper deals with the assessment of various reliability factors of a real-life manufacturing system having inspection facility. This multistate manufacturing system have five workstations those are connected in series configuration as: W1, W2, W3, W4, W5. Workstations W2 and W4 has the configuration 2-out-of-3: G and 1-out-of-3: F. Due to failure of the any of the workstation, whole manufacturing system can completely fail. Apart from this machine failure can also make system down. To avoid sudden failure in the system pre-emptive maintenance strategy has been adopted. This is a corrective maintenance action before a failure occurs and scheduled during off days. Risk analysis is done because of fault of W5 workstation in material quality inspection. Probability distributions like exponential time distribution is followed by all failures and general time distribution by all repairs. To study the probabilistic behavior of the system in different possible transition states, Markov process have been used. Supplementary variable technique and copula method of finding joint probability distribution have been used to obtained various reliability features such as steady state behavior of the system, reliability function, availability, Mean time to failure, sensitivity analysis and profit analysis.

description: In this work we develop a theory of surface electromagnetic waves localized at the interface of periodic metal-dielectric structures. We have shown that the anisotropy of plasma frequency in metal layers lifts the degeneracy of plasma oscillations and opens a series of photonic band gaps. This results in appearance of surface waves with singular density of states - we refer to them as Tamm-Langmuir waves. Such naming is natural since we have found that their properties are very similar to the properties of both bulk Langmuir and surface Tamm waves. Depending on the anisotropy parameters, Tamm-Langmuir waves can be either forward or backward waves. Singular density of states and high sensitivity of the dispersion to the anisotropy of the structure makes Tamm-Langmuir waves very promising for potential applications in nanophotonics and biosensing.

Support Vector Regression

description: In machine learning, support vector machines (SVM) are supervised learning models with associated learning algorithms that analyze data for classification and regression analysis. SVM is one of the most robust prediction method based on statistical learning frameworks. Regression is a statistical method that attempts to determine the strength and character of the relationship between dependent and independent variables. This paper explores the idea of support vector Regression. The most commonly used classical procedure is Least Squares, which is less efficient and very sensitive when the data contains outliers. To overcome this limitations, alternative robust regression procedures exist such as LMS regression, S-estimator, MM-estimator and Support Vector Regression (SVR). In this study, the comparisons have made for the classical regression procedure and the robust regression procedures. In that, various measures of errors are much efficient when we work with robust regression procedures. In this paper, an attempt has been made to review the existing theory and methods of SVR.

description: A novel mid-infrared/near-infrared double resonant absorption setup for studying infrared-inactive vibrational states is presented. A strong vibrational transition in the mid-infrared region is excited using an idler beam from a singly resonant continuous-wave optical parametric oscillator, to populate an intermediate vibrational state. High output power of the optical parametric oscillator and the strength of the mid-infrared transition result in efficient population transfer to the intermediate state, which allows measuring secondary transitions from this state with a high signal-to-noise ratio. A secondary, near-infrared transition from the intermediate state is probed using cavity ring down spectroscopy, which provides high sensitivity in this wavelength region. Due to the narrow linewidths of the excitation sources, the rovibrational lines of the secondary transition are measured with sub-Doppler resolution. The setup is used to access a previously unreported symmetric vibrational state of acetylene, $ν_1+ν_2+ν_3+ν_4^1+ν_5^{-1}$ in the normal mode notation. Single-photon transitions to this state from the vibrational ground state are forbidden. Ten lines of the newly measured state are observed and fitted with the linear least-squares method to extract the band parameters. The vibrational term value was measured to be at 9775.0018(45) $\text{cm}^{-1}$, the rotational parameter $B$ was 1.162222 $\text{cm}^{-1}$, and the quartic centrifugal distortion parameter $D$ was 3.998(62)$\times 10^{-6} \text{cm}^{-1}$, where the numbers in the parenthesis are one-standard errors in the least significant digits.

description: An integral PID control sliding surface with first order filter is proposed in this paper to the systems with single-input single-output (SISO). In this The developed sliding mode controller results well, even though there are differences in the model of the system via parametric uncertainty. To verify its applicability to disturbances, the presented work validates the controller performance with the application of an external load. An integral and filtered type sliding surface has advantages in terms of the stability of the systems. The proposed controller properties of stability and robustness are proven by the Lyapunov’s stability theorem. By the adoption of switching gain with predetermined parameters of system, the chattering problem phenomenon is greatly minimized. Therefore, the proposed controller in this work is appropriate for extended use in real world systems. In this method proposed control is verified using simulation examples and results for its performance. It will be compared to a similar controller shown in the previous literature work.

description: The assignment problem (AP) is a decision-making problem that is used in production planning, industrial organizations, the economy and so on. As the single objective AP is no longer sufficient to handle today's optimization problems, bi-objective AP (BOAP) is considered. This research article introduces BOAP in neutrosophic environment. The neutrosophic BOAP (NBOAP) is formulated by adding the elements of cost matrices with single-valued trapezoidal neutrosophic numbers (SVTrNNs). A new method namely, fixing point approach (FPA) is proposed in this paper. The aim of this study is not only to determine the set of efficient solutions but also to find the optimal compromise solution for NBOAP using FPA. The proposed approach is elucidated with a numerical example and its solutions are plotted in a graph using MATLAB, which demonstrates its efficiency and optimality in practical aspects. This approach is more profitable for decision makers (DMs) and more efficient than other existing approaches because it provides the best optimal compromise solution in a neutrosophic environment.

description: We describe the development of a stochastic model for a computer system with cold standby redundancy, priority and failure of service facility. A computer system (called a single unit) means the simultaneous working of its hardware and software components. The system has one more unit (called computer system) that can be used as and when required at the failure of any of the hardware/software components of the initially operative computer system. A single repair facility is made available to rectify the faults which occur due to the failure of hardware and software components. The failed hardware component undergoes for repair immediately while failed software is up-graded. The service facility is subjected to failure during hardware repair. The provision of perfect treatment has been made for the failed service facility. The components work as new after repair and up-gradation with the same life time distribution. The priority is given to the software up-gradation over the hardware repair. In steady state, the expressions for some important reliability measures have been derived using the well known semi-Markov process and regenerative point technique. The behavior of some useful reliability characteristics has been observed for particular values of the parameters related to failure times, repair and up-gradation times and treatment time which follow negative exponential distribution.

Creators: name: Thompson, Christopher M.
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2001

description: "Making Felt: Joseph Beuys and the Dalai Lama - un-organizing otherness" examines the histories and legacies of the 1982 meeting between the German artist Joseph Beuys and his Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama of Tibet, an event that has gone all but unnoticed by historians and theorists. The history of the relationships between both the well-known and marginal figures who were involved with it serves as the connective tissue for the thesis' interrelated objectives. These are: 1) to provide a historical account of the life and work of the meeting's organizer, Dutch artist Louwrien Wijers, and her partnerships with Beuys, French artist Robert Filliou, and Dutch artists Ben d' Annagnac and Gerrit Dekker, which are a crucial part of the meeting and its legacies; 2) to theorize several post-war Western artists' and philosophers' engagements with Eastern thought and religious practices, primarily Zen and Tibetan Buddhism; 3) to historicize the Dalai Lama's first visits to the West (1973 and 1981) which set the stage for his meeting with Beuys; 4) to provide a narrative of 20th-century Western artistic and philosophical practices in terms of encounters with cultural difference, and to use these practices to suggest a notion of 'nonviolence' viable in the 21st-century. The thesis employs the material felt - crucial to Beuys' work - as a device for giving cohesion to its methodology and to the play of histories with which it works. Felt, a non-woven fabric, and the process of making it which involves a methodical leaving-to-chance of the formation of the material- offers a mode of approaching the encounter with otherness that provides an alternative to the usual figuration of cultural knowledge as a regularized ''weave'' of various cultural practices. The thesis uses this distinction between woven and non-woven, making knowledge and making felt, to enable the productive ''un-organization'' of otherness.

description: In this article, a new transformation technique based on the cumulative distribution function is proposed, the proposed transformation technique is very useful to generate a class of lifetime distribution. The various statistical properties of the proposed transformation method are studied. Further, the proposed technique is illustrated by considering exponential distribution as a baseline distribution. Various statistical properties such as survival and hazard rate, moments, mean deviation about mean and median, order statistics, moment generating function (MGF), Bonferroni’s, and Lorenz curves, entropy, stress-strength reliability have been discussed. Different classical estimation methods are used to estimate the unknown parameters. Finally, two real data sets are considered to justify the use of the proposed distribution in real scenario.

description: Dirac fermions are actively investigated, and the discovery of the quantized anomalous Hall effect of massive Dirac fermions has spurred the promise of low-energy electronics. Some materials hosting Dirac fermions are natural platforms for interlayer coherence effects such as Coulomb drag and exciton condensation. Here we determine the role played by the anomalous Hall effect in Coulomb drag in massive Dirac fermion systems. We focus on topological insulator films with out-of plane magnetizations in both the active and passive layers. The transverse response of the active layer is dominated by a topological term arising from the Berry curvature. We show that the topological mechanism does not contribute to Coulomb drag, yet the longitudinal drag force in the passive layer gives rise to a transverse drag current. This anomalous Hall drag current is independent of the active-layer magnetization, a fact that can be verified experimentally. It depends non-monotonically on the passive-layer magnetization, exhibiting a peak that becomes more pronounced at low densities. These findings should stimulate new experiments and quantitative studies of anomalous Hall drag.

description: In this article it is mainly focused on discussion about estimation of stress-strength reliability under equi-correlated multivariate setup. It is seen in some situations that the components of a system are equi-correlated. Generally, the form of the equi-correlation structure within the components of a system is known for a given situation, however parameters that are involved in the equi-correlation structure always unknown. In this article, we propose a procedure to compute and estimate the stress-strength reliability R= Pr(𝒂'𝒙 > 𝒃'𝒚) when 𝒙 and 𝒚 are distributed non-independently equicorrelated multivariate normal distribution, where 𝒂 and 𝒃 are two known vectors. Here we have proposed the method of moments estimator to estimate these unknown parameters. Actually, we want to find out overall strength is larger than overall stress. In order to do that we take 𝒂'𝒙 and 𝒃'𝒚 as their representatives e.g. principal components of the respective vectors do the job approximately. An asymptotic distribution used to obtain confidence intervals for the stress-strength reliability. The performance of these intervals checked through the simulation study. Finally, we provide a real data analysis.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An inverse cascade - energy transfer to progressively larger scales - is a salient feature of two-dimensional turbulence. If the cascade reaches the system scale, it creates a coherent flow expected to have the largest available scale and conform with the symmetries of the domain. In a doubly periodic rectangle, the mean flow with zero total momentum was therefore believed to be unidirectional, with two jets along the short side; while for an aspect ratio close to unity, a vortex dipole was expected. Using direct numerical simulations, we show that in fact neither the box symmetry is respected nor the largest scale is realized: the flow is never purely unidirectional since the inverse cascade produces coherent vortices, whose number and relative motion are determined by the aspect ratio. This spontaneous symmetry breaking is closely related to the hierarchy of averaging times. Long-time averaging restores translational invariance due to vortex wandering along one direction, and gives jets whose profile, however, can be deduced neither from the largest-available-scale argument, nor from the often employed maximum-entropy principle or quasi-linear approximation.

description: Professional Development training programs for adult learners are enhanced by applying leadership strategies and using digital tools to help build community in online and blended learning environments. Learning organizations that design and deliver informal and non-credit Professional Development training programs to adults may benefit by applying leadership strategies such as the Community of Inquiry (CoI) Framework and Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle model. This Project addresses the Critical Challenge Question (CCQ): What are the strategies and tools that Professional Development leaders can employ for engaging adult learners in online learning environments? Through the research, I developed a conceptual adaptation to the CoI Framework for adult learning training through Connection, Leadership, and Lifelong Learning. The research enabled a thoughtful conclusion to the Project package consisting of a website, a downloadable Facilitator’s Guide, and a Gamified Digital Adventure, “The Facilitator’s Way.” The intended audience for this research are instructional designers, facilitators, trainers, and learning organizations that deliver informal and non-credit training to adults online or via blended learning.

description: SLHA file listing the superpartner masses and decay channels for the 400 GeV signal chargino in electroweak production
description: CERN-LHC. This paper presents a search for direct electroweak gaugino or gluino pair production with a chargino nearly mass-degenerate with a stable neutralino. It is based on an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The final state of interest is a disappearing track accompanied by at least one jet with high transverse momentum from initial-state radiation or by four jets from the gluino decay chain. The use of short track segments reconstructed from the innermost tracking layers significantly improves the sensitivity to short chargino lifetimes. The results are found to be consistent with Standard Model predictions. Exclusion limits are set at 95% confidence level on the mass of charginos and gluinos for different chargino lifetimes. For a pure wino with a lifetime of about 0.2 ns, chargino masses up to 460 GeV are excluded. For the strong production channel, gluino masses up to 1.65 TeV are excluded assuming a chargino mass of 460 GeV and lifetime of 0.2 ns. For the strong production channel, gluino masses up to 1.65 TeV are excluded assuming a chargino mass of 460 GeV and lifetime of 0.2 ns.

description: Aims. We present an innovative artificial neural network (ANN) architecture, called Generative ANN (GANN), that computes the forward model, that is it learns the function that relates the unknown outputs (stellar atmospheric parameters, in this case) to the given inputs (spectra). Such a model can be integrated in a Bayesian framework to estimate the posterior distribution of the outputs. Methods. The architecture of the GANN follows the same scheme as a normal ANN, but with the inputs and outputs inverted. We train the network with the set of atmospheric parameters (Teff, logg, [Fe/H] and [alpha/Fe]), obtaining the stellar spectra for such inputs. The residuals between the spectra in the grid and the estimated spectra are minimized using a validation dataset to keep solutions as general as possible. Results. The performance of both conventional ANNs and GANNs to estimate the stellar parameters as a function of the star brightness is presented and compared for different Galactic populations. GANNs provide significantly improved parameterizations for early and intermediate spectral types with rich and intermediate metallicities. The behaviour of both algorithms is very similar for our sample of late-type stars, obtaining residuals in the derivation of [Fe/H] and [alpha/Fe] below 0.1dex for stars with Gaia magnitude Grvs<12, which accounts for a number in the order of four million stars to be observed by the Radial Velocity Spectrograph of the Gaia satellite. Conclusions. Uncertainty estimation of computed astrophysical parameters is crucial for the validation of the parameterization itself and for the subsequent exploitation by the astronomical community. GANNs produce not only the parameters for a given spectrum, but a goodness-of-fit between the observed spectrum and the predicted one for a given set of parameters. Moreover, they allow us to obtain the full posterior distribution...

The ice-cream unit along with the other three units i.e., flavoring, freezing and combined flavouring and freezing units are always operational in summers, due to the high demand, while in winters the combined flavoring and freezing unit is kept in cold standby as a backup in case there is a demand for ice-cream. In this work, the semi-Markov process and the regenerative point technique have been used to analyze the system. Numerical analysis has been conducted using MATLAB. A variety of measures have been developed to evaluate the effectiveness of a system. The Code Blocks have been used in interpreting the graph in the specific case presented. All evaluation is based on the milk production data collected by the plant. Improvements to the system performance will lead to increased profits. Similar techniques can be applied to other systems.

description: In a Poisson Point Process (PPP) network model, in which the locations of Base Stations (BSs) are randomly distributed according to a Spatial Poisson Process, has been recently used as a tractable stochastic model to analyse the performance of downlink Heterogeneous Cellular Networks (HCNs). The HCN is modelled as a multi-tier cellular network where each tier is characterised by the transmission power level, propagation path loss exponent and density of BSs. The current works on HCN enabling Intercell Interference Coordination (ICIC) technique usually deal with Strict Frequency Reuse (FR) or Soft FR with a reuse factor of $Δ=1$ in a Rayleigh fading channel. It has been assumed that all Base Stations (BSs) transmit continuously which leads to a reduction on the impact of number of users and RBs on network performance. In this paper, the performance of Soft FR with a reuse factor of $Δ>1$ in Rayleigh-Lognormal fading channel is evaluated. The impact of the number of users and Resource Blocks (RBs) on Intercell Interference (ICI) are presented for Round Robin scheduling and indicator functions. The results show that there are opposite trends between coverage probability of Cell-Center User (CCU) and Cell-Edge User (CEU).

description: The continuous Bernoulli distribution is a recently introduced one-parameter distribution with support [0, 1], finding numerous applications in applied statistics. The idea of this article is to propose a natural extension of this distribution by adding a shape parameter through a power transformation. We introduce the power continuous Bernoulli distribution, aiming to extend the modeling scope of the continuous Bernoulli distribution. Basics of its mathematical properties are derived, such as the shapes of the related functions, the determination of various moment measures, and an evaluation of the overall amount of its randomness via the Rényi entropy. A statistical analysis of the distribution is then performed, showing how it can be applied when dealing with data. Estimates of the parameters are discussed through the maximum likelihood method. A Monte Carlo simulation study investigates the asymptotic behavior of these estimates. The flexibility of the power continuous Bernoulli distribution in real-life data fitting is analyzed using two data sets. Also, fair competitors are considered to highlight the accuracy of this distribution. At all stages, numerous graphics and tables illustrate the findings.

description: Unique optical properties of colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs), arising from quantum mechanical confinement of charge within these structures, present a versatile testbed for the study of how high electric fields affect the electronic structure of nanostructured solids. Earlier studies of quasi-DC electric field modulation of QD properties have been limited by the electrostatic breakdown processes under the high externally applied electric fields, which have restricted the range of modulation of QD properties. In contrast, in the present work we drive CdSe:CdS core:shell QD films with high-field THz-frequency electromagnetic pulses whose duration is only a few picoseconds. Surprisingly, in response to the THz excitation we observe QD luminescence even in the absence of an external charge source. Our experiments show that QD luminescence is associated with a remarkably high and rapid modulation of the QD band-gap, which is changing by more than 0.5 eV (corresponding to 25% of the unperturbed bandgap energy) within the picosecond timeframe of THz field profile. We show that these colossal energy shifts can be consistently explained by the quantum confined Stark effect. Our work demonstrates a route to extreme modulation of material properties without configurational changes in material sets or geometries. Additionally, we expect that this platform can be adapted to a novel compact THz detection scheme where conversion of THz fields (with meV-scale photon energies) to the visible/near-IR band (with eV-scale photon energies) can be achieved at room temperature with high bandwidth and sensitivity.

description: In this paper we consider double parton distribution functions (dPDFs) which are the main non perturbative ingredients appearing in the double parton scattering cross section formula in hadronic collisions. By using recent calculation of dPDFs by means of constituent quark models within the so called Light-Front approach, we investigate the role of relativistic effects on dPDFs. We find, in particular, that the so called Melosh operators, which allow to properly convert the LF spin into the canonical one and incorporate a proper treatment of boosts, produce sizeable effects on dPDFs. We discuss specific partonic correlations induced by these operators in transverse plane which are relevant to the proton structure and study under which conditions these results are stable against variations in the choice of the proton wave function.

description: Beauty pageant is a popular culture that most Filipinos – from the girls who join, to the audience who observe and follow every activity – are very passionate about. Through time, it has evolved from a competition where girls are judged solely based on their physical beauty, to an event where girls are provided a platform to promote advocacies. Given this transformation, this research looks at how modern-day pageants (particularly, Binibining Pilipinas) contribute to advocacy and development communication in the country through a social marketing perspective. An authoethnography approach was employed to describe and analyze the personal experiences and insights of the researcher (as someone who works in the pageant) and of the select pageant candidates interviewed. By looking at pageantry through the lens of social marketing, pageant girls can be seen not just as models with beautiful looks, but as communicators with stories and messages to share. They are provided opportunities to discuss their advocacies which are narrated based on their personal backgrounds and experiences, and are relayed to the audience through traditional interviews and entertaining digital presentations. By doing advocacy communication through relatable stories and delivering it via interesting means, pageantry as a popular culture is given a more meaningful role and purpose in society.

description: Assessing and controlling magnetic interactions in magnetic nanostructures are critical to nanomagnetic and spintronic explorations, such as magnetic recording media, permanent magnets, magnetic memory and logic devices, etc. Here we demonstrate an extremely sensitive magnetic yoking effect and tunable interactions in FePt based hard/soft bilayers mediated by the soft layer. Below the exchange length, a thin soft layer strongly exchange couples to the perpendicular moments of the hard layer; above the exchange length, just a few nanometers thicker, the soft layer moments turn in-plane and act to yoke the dipolar fields from the adjacent hard layer perpendicular domains. The evolution from exchange to dipolar-dominated interactions is experimentally captured by first-order reversal curves, the delta-M method, and polarized neutron reflectometry, and confirmed by micromagnetic simulations. These findings demonstrate an effective yoking approach to design and control magnetic interactions in wide varieties of magnetic nanostructures and devices.
