Introduction to the Maxwell Garnett approximation: tutorial.

This tutorial is devoted to the Maxwell Garnett approximation and related theories. Topics covered in this first, introductory part of the tutorial include the Lorentz local field correction, the Clausius-Mossotti relation and its role in the modern numerical technique known as the discrete dipole approximation, the Maxwell Garnett mixing formula for isotropic and anisotropic media, multicompon...

Mining large datasets using machine learning approaches often leads to models that are hard to interpret and not amenable to the generation of hypotheses that can be experimentally tested. Finding ‘actionable knowledge’ is becoming more important, but also more challenging as datasets grow in size and complexity. We present ‘Logic Optimization for Binary Input to Continuous Output’ (LOBICO), a ...

Dirichlet Points , Garnett Points , Andinfinite Ends of Hyperbolic Surfaces

The end of a hyperbolic surface is studied in terms of the behavior at innnity of geodesics on the surface. For a class of surfaces called untwisted utes it is possible to give a fairly precise description of the ending geometry. From the point of view of a Fuchsian group representing such a surface this provides new information about the existence of Dirichlet and Garnett points. 0. Introducti...

the well-known tendency of particular maladies to show breed-specificity can be used to infer likely sharing of descent of the causative alleles. As made clear in the volume under review, this is as true of major-gene diseases such as copper toxicosis and various retinopathies, as it is of the more complex and more prevalent cardiomyopathies, cancers, and dermatitis. Conduction of clinical tria...
