The traditional asset-pricing models ¿ such as the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) of [42] and [34], the arbitrage pricing theory (APT) of [40], or the intertemporal capital asset pricing model (ICAPM) of [38] ¿ have ...

Research on security techniques for Java bytecode has paid little attention to the security of the implementations of the techniques themselves, assuming that ordinary tools for programming, verification and testing ...

Water planners are familiar with some form of variability in climate and demand. However, the uncertainty associated with the frequency and magnitude of the variations, coupled with broader performance expectations, means ...

This paper describes an adaptive algorithm for power and bit allocations in a multiple user Multiple Input Multiple Output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO OFDM) system operating in a frequency selective ...

As a new version of support vector machine (SVM), least squares SVM (LS-SVM) involves equality instead of inequality constraints and works with a least squares cost function. A well-known drawback in the LSSVM applications ...

In this paper we present an adaptive shared control method for an intelligent wheelchair based on the Bayesian recursive technique to assist a disable user in performing obstacle avoidance tasks. Three autonomous tasks ...

Power control is one of the most important mechanisms influencing on the maximum capacity and performance of Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) systems. Power control algorithms used in Universal Mobile ...

During the transient stage of acceleration, the powertrain experiences a period of high level vibration because the engine speed passes through one or several powertrain natural frequencies. This paper presents a concept ...
