Gaussian mixtures closest to a given measure via optimal transport by Lasserre, Jean B.

“…Next (ii) by using a well-known specific property of Gaussian measures, this optimal transport is then viewed as a Generalized Moment Problem (GMP) and if the set $S$ of mixture parameters $(\mathbf{m},\mathbf{\Sigma })$ is a basic compact semi-algebraic set, we provide a “mesh-free” numerical scheme to approximate as closely as desired the optimal distance by solving a hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations of increasing size. …”

Research on the Characteristics of Coal Bump and Monitoring and Early Warning in Hujiahe Coal Mine by Fei Yu, Tong Zhang, Zhen Wei

“…Based on the characteristics of the mechanical damage behavior of coal samples obtained from the triaxial experiment, the statistics of the occurrence of coal bump events at the 401103 working face were conducted through numerical simulation and field monitoring to study the areas that need to be focused on prevention and control, with a view to providing basic research for deep coal mining. The results show the following: (1) the strength of coal samples is “weakened” by stress loading, and the fracture penetrates the coal body interface leading to the formation of tensile-shear damage of coal samples. …”

The Influence Mechanism and Optimization of the Sensor Network on the MS/AE Source Location by Nan Li, Maochen Ge, Enyuan Wang, Shaohua Zhang

“…Also, this amplication effect of the input data errors is characterized by nonuniformity because of the nonuniformity of the hyperbolic/hyperboloidal field. Furthermore, two basic effects, the geometrical spreading and the directional control, of the sensor network are investigated, and the three-dimensional space quantitative models of these two effects are established, respectively. …”
