The extended hypergeometric class of Lévy processes
We review and extend the class of hypergeometric Lévy processes explored in Kuznetsov and Pardo (2013) with a view to computing fluctuation identities related to stable processes. We give the Wiener-Hopf factorisation of a...

A Radial Estimation-of-Distribution Algorithm for the Job-Shop Scheduling Problem
Ricardo Pérez-Rodríguez
Jan 01, 2022
The job-shop environment has been widely studied under different approaches. It is due to its practical characteristic that makes its research interesting. Therefore, the job-shop scheduling problem continues being attracted to...

A Physiological-Monitoring Electronic Platform for Cattle Grazing Systems
Ricardo Santos, Fabiana Alves, Patrik Bressan, Ricardo Aguiar, Wellington Santos, Rafael Costa
Jul 01, 2020
In this work, we present a non-invasive electronic platform for physiological data acquisition on cattle grazing systems. The platform can be used for dairy and beef cattle to continuously monitor physiological variables such as...

Ethnic and regional variations in hospital mortality from COVID-19 in Brazil
BACKGROUND: Brazil ranks second worldwide in total number of COVID-19 cases and deaths. Understanding the possible socioeconomic and ethnic health inequities is particularly important given the diverse population and fragile...
Exact and asymptotic <em>n</em>-tuple laws at first and last passage
Understanding the space time features of how a Levy process crosses a constant barrier for the first time, and indeed the last time, is a problem which is central to many models in applied probability such as queueing theory...
Software and Systems Engineers in ICS Security
The introduction of Industry 4.0 and IIoT has enabled the interconnection of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) and exposed industrial control systems to cyber threats. Industrial cybersecurity requires...

Recommendation System for Sightseeing Tours
This research proposes a model of a recommendation system (RS) for tourist itineraries. The RS suggests tips of what to visit in a city, based on the available time, personal preferences, current geo-location, and the user's...

Double hypergeometric Lévy processes and self-similarity
Motivated by a recent paper of Budd, where a new family of positive self-similar Markov processes associated to stable processes appears, we introduce a new family of Lévy processes, called the double hypergeometric class, whose...
Self and Peer E-Assessment
In recent years, universities and other academic institutions have been performing collaborative learning to improve the students' skills, competencies, and learning outcomes. The problem-based learning approach is a learning...

Apr 17, 2023
PURPOSE: The B-MaP-C study investigated changes to breast cancer care that were necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Here we present a follow-up analysis of those patients commenced on bridging endocrine therapy (BrET), whilst...
A Study of Satisfaction and Loyalty for Continuance Intention of Mobile Wallet in India
How do satisfaction and loyalty drive Indian consumers' continued use of mobile financial applications? Do age, education, and income moderate these relationships? An analysis of 1,060 Indian participants revealed that consumer...

Meromorphic levy processes and their fluctuation identities
The last couple of years has seen a remarkable number of new, explicit examples of the Wiener.Hopf factorization for Levy processes where previously there had been very few. We mention, in particular, the many cases of...

Hitting distributions of α-stable processes via path censoring and self-similarity
In this paper we return to the problem of Blumenthal-Getoor-Ray, published in 1961, which gave the law of the position of first entry of a symmetric alpha-stable process into the unit ball. Specifically, we are interested in...
Non-axisymmetric complete flow conditioning gauzes
Abstract: This paper presents a novel methodology for the design of a gauze that produces distributions of stagnation pressure, swirl angle, pitch angle and turbulence intensity, tailored in both the radial and circumferential...
Some Useful Sources
The literature on social protection in Latin America – and more specifically on Conditional Cash Transfers (CCTs) – is substantial and growing as, increasingly, more academics from around the world seem to be attracted to social...
