In this paper, we propose a variant of the Empirical Mode Decomposition method to decompose multiscale data into their intrinsic mode functions. Under the assumption that the multiscale data satisfy certain scale separation property, we show that the proposed method can extract the intrinsic mode functions accurately and uniquely.

Huang and Huang [International Journal of Systems Science, 39 (2008), 539-546] offered the algebraic approach to investigate the retailer’s replenishment policy under trade credit on the economic production quantity (EPQ) model. In this paper, we propose an arithmetic-geometric mean inequality method to simplify the algebraic method of completing perfect square established by Huang and Huang (2...

The current paper primarily aims to suggest a mathematical model for the shape-dependent term of Khan- Liu (KL) Yield/ fracture criterion as a function of Plastic Strain for DP590 steel alloy. The shape-dependent term in the mention criterion can generalize the application of this criterion in order to predict the behavior of other materials. Plane stress case and the first quarter of the stres...

Unfortunately, in the PDF of the original version of this article [1] there was an error. The names of two of the co-first authors were included incorrectly in the footnote and read “Xiu-yang Huang” and “Juhong Yang “instead of “Xiu-yan Huang” and “Ju-hong Yang”. The sentence should have read “Xiu-yan Huang, Zi-li Huang, and Juhong Yang are co-first authors”. The names have been also updated in...

An algorithm of phrase structure building is proposed within the bare phrase structure framework. The algorithm is rooted in the idea that applications of Merge -the operation that combines syntactic objects -should not change the set of basic relations (in particular, c-command) in the existing structure, what Chomsky (2000) terms 'Least Tampering'. Under the proposed algorithm, this idea tran...

This paper introduces a new hybrid cluster validity method based on particle swarm optimization, for successfully solving one of the most popular clustering/classifying complex datasets problems. The proposed method for the solution of the clustering/classifying problem, designated as PSORS index method, combines a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm, Rough Set (RS) theory and a modifie...

Abstract— Ananda Mohan suggested that the first New Chinese Remainder Theorem introduced by Wang can be derived from the constructive proof of the well-known Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT) and claimed that Wang’s approach is the same as the one proposed earlier by Huang. Ananda Mohan’s proof is however erroneous and we show here that Wang’s New CRT I is a rewriting of an algorithm previously s...

Coffman and Sethi proposed a heuristic algorithm, called LD, for multi-processor scheduling, to minimize makespan over flowtime-optimal schedules. LD algorithm is a natural extension of a very well-known list scheduling algorithm, Longest Processing Time (LPT) list scheduling, to our bicriteria scheduling problem. Moreover, in 1976, Coffman and Sethi conjectured that LD algorithm has precisely ...
