Guangdong Technology College, Zhaoqing, China. To the best of the author’s knowledge, several studies have addressed stochastic evolution equations driven by nonlinear noise, see e.g., [24]-[29]. In ...

In this paper we explore, by mathematical modeling, a sort of null-hypothesis, or limit-case, whereby the PNH clone has no selective advantage. We find, based on the current notion of the stochastic ...

Abstract: The operation and maintenance of infrastructure components and systems can be modeled as a Markov process, partially or fully observable. Information about the current condition can be ...

On his second LP, the Berlin-based musician opens himself to chance and presents a vision of techno that harnesses randomness for all its potential. He emerges a more remarkable musician than ever.

Abstract: We consider solving a class of unconstrained optimization problems in which only stochastic estimates of the objective functions are available. Existing stochastic optimization methods are ...

In order to develop strategies that can detect cancer earlier, we need to better understand the dynamics of cancer evolution during the human lifetime. Starting from gestation, this includes measuring ...

The idea of objects seamlessly disappearing, not just in controlled laboratory environments but also in real-world scenarios, has long captured the popular imagination. This concept epitomizes the ...

Linguist and lexicographer Ben Zimmer analyzes the origins of words in the news. Read previous columns here. On Jan. 5, a few hundred linguists gathered in a ballroom in midtown Manhattan to mull ...

Introduction: In recent years, the combination of the public health crisis and the climate crisis has greatly weakened the resilience of food systems. The Belt and Road food cooperation will make ...

Researchers now understand why there is an uneven distribution of animal species on either side of the mysterious boundary, known as the Wallace Line. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...
