  • Tripartite Entanglement Transformations And Tensor Rank 
    Chitambar E; Duan Runyao; Shi Yuquan (Amer Physical Soc, 2008)
    A basic question regarding quantum entangled states is whether one can be probabilistically converted to another through local operations and classical communication exclusively. While the answer for bipartite systems is ...
  • Two exotic lookback options 
    Bermin Hans-Peter; Buchen Peter; Konstandatos Otto (Routledge, 2008)
    This paper formally analyses two exotic options with lookback features, referred to as extreme spread lookback options and look-barrier options, first introduced by Bermin. The holder of such options receives partial ...
  • A Two-Phase Algorithm For Product Part Change Utilizing AHP And PSO 
    Huang Pei; Tong L; Chang Wei-Wen; Yeh Wei-Chang (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011)
    This study presents a two-phase algorithm approach to deal with the issue of product part change, and the issue of supplier selection derived from the former. In the first step, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used ...
  • A Two-Stage Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization For The Problem Of Multiple Multi-Level Redundancy Allocation In Series Systems 
    Yeh Wei-Chang (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)
    Nowadays, the redundancy allocation problem (RAP) is increasingly becoming an important tool in the initial stages of or prior to planning. designing, and control of systems. The multiple multi-level redundancy allocation ...
  • Unambiguous discrimination between mixed quantum states 
    Feng Yuan; Duan Runyao; Ying Mingsheng (American Physical Society, 2004)
    We prove that the states secretly chosen from a mixed state set can be perfectly discriminated if and only if they are orthogonal. The sufficient and necessary condition under which nonorthogonal mixed quantum states can ...
  • Unambiguous Discrimination Of Mixed Quantum States 
    Zhang Chengqi; Feng Yuan; Ying Mingsheng (Elsevier Science Bv, 2006)
    The problem of unambiguous discrimination between mixed quantum states is addressed by isolating the part of each mixed state which has no contribution to discrimination and by employing the strategy of set discrimination ...
  • Universal laws and economic phenomena 
    Gerig Austin (Wiley, 2011)
    Despite the idiosyncratic behavior of individuals, empirical regularities exist in social and economic systems. These regularities often arise from simple underlying mechanisms which, analogous to the natural sciences, can ...
  • The urban spread of visceral leishmaniasis: Clues from spatial analysis 
    Werneck G.; Costa C.; Walker A.; David J.; Wand Matthew; Maguire J. (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Inc, 2002)
    Background. The pattern of spread of visceral leishmaniasis in Brazilian cities is poorly understood. Methods. We used geographic information systems and spatial statistics to evaluate the distribution of 1061 ...
  • The use of balanced incomplete block designs in designing randomized response surveys 
    Smith Narelle; Street Deborah (Blackwell Publishing, 2005)
    This paper investigatesthe block total response method proposed by Raghavarao and Federer for providing accurate estimates of the base rates of sensitive characteristics during surveys. It determines the best balanced ...
  • Using Association Rules And Particle Swarm Optimization Approach For Part Change 
    Wang Her-Shing; Yeh Wei-Chang; Huang Pei; Chang Wei-Wen (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009)
    This study proposed on applying the Association Rule to the corporate maintenance center database, to investigate common dysfunctions associated with proper product using the products as instructed, so as to alter product ...
  • Using Infer.NET for statistical analyses 
    Wang S.; Wand Matthew (American Statistical Association, 2011)
    We demonstrate and critique the new Bayesian inference package Infer.NET in terms of its capacity for statistical analyses. Infer.NET differs from the well-known BUGS Bayesian inference packages in that its main engine is ...
  • Using Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm For Partner Selection In Green Supply Chain Problems 
    Yeh Wei-Chang; Chuang Mei-Chi (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011)
    Partner selection is an important issue in the supply chain management. Since environment protection has been of concern to public in recent years, and the traditional supplier selection did not consider about this factor; ...
  • Utility of gambling under p(olynomial)-additive joint receipt and segregation or duplex decomposition 
    Marley Anthony; T Ng; Luce R (Elsevier, 2009)
    This article continues our exploration of the utility of gambling, but here under the assumption of a non-additive but p(olynomial)-additive representation of joint receipt. That assumption causes the utility of gambling ...
  • Variational Bayesian inference for parametric and nonparametric regression with missing data 
    Faes C.; Ormerod J.; Wand Matthew (American Statistical Association, 2011)
    Bayesian hierarchical models are attractive structures for conducting regression analyses when the data are subject to missingness. However, the requisite probability calculus is challenging and Monte Carlo methods typically ...
  • A Volatility Decomposition Control Variate Technique For Monte Carlo Simulations Of Heath Jarrow Morton Models 
    Chiarella Carl; Clewlow Les; Musti Silvana (Elsevier Science Bv, 2005)
    The aim of this work is to develop a simulation approach to the yield curve evolution in the Heath, Jarrow and Morton [Econometrica 60 (1) (1992) 77] framework. The stochastic quantities considered as affecting the forward ...
  • The volatility structure of the fixed income market under the HJM framework: A nonlinear filtering approach 
    Chiarella Carl; Hung Hing; To Thuy-Duong (Elsevier, 2009)
    The dynamics for interest rate processes within the well-known multi-factor Heath, Jarrow and Morton (HJM) specification are considered. Despite the flexibility of and the notable advances in theoretical research about the ...
  • Walrasian equilibrium in matching models 
    Wooders John (Elsevier Science Bv, 1998)
    We analyze trading in a model in which the agents and their preferences are the same as in the main models of matching and bargaining, but in which trade is centralized rather than decentralized. We characterize equilibrium ...
  • Wavelet Analysis of The Cost-of-carry Model 
    Stevenson, M. J; Lin, S. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology Press, 2001)
    In this paper, it is shown how one can employ the wavelet analysis to reconstruct data based only on the subset of information that differentiates the twofundamentally related time series: spot and futures indices. Such ...
