Analytical Relations and Statistical Estimations for Sums of Powered Integers by Stan Lipovetsky

“…Finding analytical closed-form solutions for the sums of powers of the first <i>n</i> positive integers is a classical problem of number theory. Analytical methods of constructing such sums produce complicated formulae of polynomials of a higher order, but they can be presented via the first two power sums. …”

Availability evaluation method for extended epidemic model and Markov chain based IoT by Xiaotong YE, Wenfei SUN, Shigen SHEN

“…To reflect the availability status of the Internet of things (IoT) under malware diffusion, an availability evaluation method of IoT based on the extended epidemic model SEIRD and Markov chain was proposed.According to actual states of IoT nodes, the classic epidemic model SIR was extended to establish the node state transition model SEIRD.From the dynamic change process of each state of IoT nodes, the dynamic probability equations of IoT nodes belonging to five states were constructed, the Markov matrix reflecting the state transition was obtained, and an availability calculation method of an IoT node was achieved.Taking typical star and cluster IoT topologies as examples, the availability evaluation methods of the whole IoT with different topologies were given.Experiments provide suggestions for administrators how to reasonably deploy the number of normal working nodes and routes.The research results have theoretical significance for improving IoT availability and promoting the successful IoT applications.…”

La pilule : biologisation de la contraception et régulation sociale by Claire Grino

“…As this view on the constructedness of gendered and sexual bodies differs from the classical constructionist approach and its focus on behaviours (mainly in relation to medical mediation, time, consciousness and effort), the efficacy of the pill is attributed to the opposition between the two technologies of gender. …”

Pulse state-interval modulation and experiment in the hostile environments by Yi-ning MU, He WANG, Ping LI, Hui-lin JIANG

“…Based on the Shannon classical communication theory,the atmospheric modulation model of wireless laser communication was investigated for enhancing wireless laser communication adaptability of the atmospheric channel.Firstly,the conversion relations of SER and BER was discussed,from error theory perspectives analysis atmospheric optical wireless communications.Afterwards,by analyzing Shannon limit communication rate of wireless laser communication in atmospheric channel,the importance of atmospheric channel bandwidth gradually came out.On the basis of this,an efficiency pulse state-interval coded modulation was present and its characteristics were estimated.Finally,the feasibility of the PSIM and the importance of atmospheric channel bandwidth to wireless laser communication were proved by wireless laser communication experiment in the hostile environments,At the end,a prospect was pointed out that atmospheric channel properties feedback technique in real time might be a key and precondition in all-weather wireless optical communication.…”

L’inattendu du terrain by Claire Vidal

“…For the past few years, a group of academics from Shanghai have been staying at the site regularly; they have taken an active part in the academy’s activities, initially as teachers of Classical Chinese, then as involved researchers. Through an analysis of the unexpected reversal in the relationship that I established with them—initially perceiving them as colleagues only to later discover fieldwork interlocutors in them—I show how their role within the academy is increasingly mobilised by the clerics to conceive the future of Putuoshan.…”

Travelling wave solutions of the reaction-diffusion mathematical model of glioblastoma growth: An Abel equation based approach by Tiberiu Harko, Man Kwong Mak

“…The solutions are obtained by using the Chiellini lemma and the Lemke transformation, respectively, and the corresponding equations represent generalizations of the classical Fisher--Kolmogorov equation. The biological implications of two classes of solutions are also investigated by using both numerical and semi-analytical methods for realistic values of the biological parameters.…”

Understanding the Complexity of Temperature Dynamics in Xinjiang, China, from Multitemporal Scale and Spatial Perspectives by Jianhua Xu, Yaning Chen, Weihong Li, Zuhan Liu, Chunmeng Wei, Jie Tang

“…Based on the observed data from 51 meteorological stations during the period from 1958 to 2012 in Xinjiang, China, we investigated the complexity of temperature dynamics from the temporal and spatial perspectives by using a comprehensive approach including the correlation dimension (CD), classical statistics, and geostatistics. The main conclusions are as follows (1) The integer CD values indicate that the temperature dynamics are a complex and chaotic system, which is sensitive to the initial conditions. (2) The complexity of temperature dynamics decreases along with the increase of temporal scale. …”

Smoothing Estimation of Parameters in Censored Quantile Linear Regression Model by Mingquan Wang, Xiaohua Ma, Xinrui Wang, Jun Wang, Xiuqing Zhou, Qibing Gao

“…Numerical simulations show that the smoothing estimation method for censored quantile regression models improves the estimation accuracy, computational speed, and robustness over the classical parameter estimation method. The simulation results also show that the parametric methods perform better than the KM method in estimating the distribution function of the censored variables. …”

Improved lattice‐based mix‐nets for electronic voting by Valeh Farzaliyev, Jan Willemson, Jaan Kristjan Kaasik

“…Abstract Mix‐networks were first proposed by Chaum in the late 1970s–early 1980s as a general tool for building anonymous communication systems. Classical mix‐net implementations rely on standard public key primitives (e.g., ElGamal encryption) that will become vulnerable when a sufficiently powerful quantum computer will be built. …”
