Some people have self-control problems regularly. This paper adds endogenous retirement to Laibson’s quasi-hyperbolic discounting savings model [Quarterly Journal of Economics 112 (1997) 443–477]. Earlier selves think that the deciding self tends to retire too early and may save less to induce later retirement. Still earlier selves may think the pre-retirement self does this too much, saving mo...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we study the numerical solution of Convection-Diffusion equation with a memory term subject to initial boundary value conditions‎. ‎Finite difference method in combination with product trapezoidal integration rule is used to discretize the equation in time and sinc collocation method is employed in space‎. ‎The accuracy and error analysis of the method are discussed‎. ‎Numeric...

In this study a non-associated viscoplastic flow rule (NAVFR) with combining von Mises and Tresca loci in place of yield and plastic potential functions and vice verse is presented. With the aid of fully implicit time stepping scheme and discussing the other studies on plastic potential flow rules and also experimental results it is shown that the proposed NAVFR can be adopted to forecast the e...

designing an effective criterion for selecting the best rule is a major problem in theprocess of implementing fuzzy learning classifier (flc) systems. conventionally confidenceand support or combined measures of these are used as criteria for fuzzy rule evaluation. in thispaper new entities namely precision and recall from the field of information retrieval (ir)systems is adapted as alternative...

Patriarchy, it seems today, has always been an integral part of the Indian society. A slight glance at the status of women in India today makes one think that women have always been considered inferior to men. History, however, says otherwise; women in India have historically had a greater role to play and have commanded far greater respect than they do today. It will therefore be justified to ...

Electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis is widely used in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. This paper proposes an explainable rule-mining strategy for prioritizing abnormal class detection ECG data. The proposed method utilizes a biased-trained Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with input features derived from beat sequence and formulates set rules at each node on-demand tree-like search algori...
