Common response-time-based approaches for non-effortful response behavior (NRB) in educational achievement tests filter responses that are associated with times below some threshold. These are, however, limited they require a binary decision on whether is classified as stemming from NRB; thus ignoring potential classification uncertainty resulting parameter estimates. We developed probabilistic...

We prove an existence and uniqueness result for two-obstacle problem quasilinear Stochastic PDEs (DOSPDEs short). The method is based on the probabilistic interpretation of solution by using backward doubly stochastic differential equations (BDSDEs

nowadays, project selection is a vital decision in many organizations. because competition among research projects in order to gain more budgets and to attain new scientific domain has increased. due to multiple objectives and budgeting restrictions for academic research projects have led to the use of expert system for decision making by academic and research centers. the existing methods suff...

abstract: enviromental concerns, improvements in renewable energy technologies, governmental incentives for the use of these resources, and increased t&d; costs, are the main factors driving the energy sector into a new era, where considerable portions of electrical demand will be met through widespread installation of distributed energy resources (ders). the virtual power plant (vpp) is a dece...
