Molecular Weight Dependent Kernels in Generalized Mixing Rules

In this paper, a model is proposed for the kernel in the generalized mixing rule recently formulated by Anderssen and Mead (1998). In order to derive such a model, it is necessary to take account of the rheological significance of the kernel in terms of the relaxation behaviour of the individual polymers involved. This leads naturally to consider a way how additional physical effects, which dep...

The right weight for my height?

A friend and I were discussing this. We both try to stay healthy by eating well (high fiber, low fat, lots of veggies, fruit, etc.) and living an active enough lifestyle (hiking, rock climbing, biking, etc.) that we stay in shape. The question we have, then, is what the current "rules" are for appropriate weight/height ratios? Or are such measurements now thrown out in favor of body fat percent...

Reproducing kernels , Bergman kernels , Poisson kernels

String Kernels , Fisher Kernels

In this paper we show how the generation of documents can be thought of as a k-stage Markov process, which leads to a Fisher kernel from which the n-gram and string kernels can be reconstructed. The Fisher kernel view gives a more exible insight into the string kernel and suggests how it can be parametrised in a way that re-ects the statistics of the training corpus. Furthermore, the prob-abili...
