Statistical inference for discrete time observations of an affine stochastic delay differential equation is considered. The main focus is on maximum pseudolikelihood estimators, which are easy to calculate in practice. Also a more general class of prediction-based estimating functions is investigated. In particular, the optimal prediction-based estimating function and the asymptotic properties ...

A major problem of network-based multiplayer games is caused by the network transmission delay. This delay leads to inconsistency and other problems. Dead reckoning is often used to reduce the effects of network induced delays and losses by applying prediction means. The quality of the prediction and, hence, the consistency of the distributed game, depends on the difference between the real and...

Long-term memory motion-compensated prediction extends the spatial displacement vector utilized in block-based hybrid video coding by a variable time delay permitting the use of more frames than the previously decoded one for motioncompensated prediction. The long-term memory covers several seconds of decoded frames at the encoder and decoder. The use of multiple frames for motion compensation ...

With the constantly increasing competition on the information service market, service providers should enhance their business processes by introducing new mechanisms. These novel mechanisms must include almost real-time detection of business opportunities (as well as possible failures), necessary resource prediction, and finally profit forecasting. Presented challenges can be tackled by using g...

background: the purpose of this study was to compare patient delay, diagnosis delay and treatment delay in breast cancer patients of selected public and private health centers in tehran, iran. methods: in this cross-sectional study, female patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer in a public medical complex and a private breast clinic within one year were included. patient delay was consider...

Abstract— Network On Chip (NoC) integrate real time application that require strength performance guaranties, usually enforced by a tight upper bound on the maximum end-to-end delay. The complex and unpredictable nature of data traffic, initiate the use of modeling and analytical prediction. In this paper, a Network Calculus mathematical method is used for analyzing the worst delay for mesh NoC...

A new three dimensional (3D) ray-tracing propagation prediction tool (3D MRT-1) is being developed for characterisation of wideband mobile radio channel. It calculates the amplitude, phase, angle-of-departure (AOD), angle-of-arrival (AOA), optical path length and received field strength for each valid reflected or diffracted ray path. It also constructs the power delay profile (PDP) and extract...

In this paper, we consider linear dynamics subject to a distributed state-dependent delay and a pointwise input-delay. We propose a prediction-based controller which exponentially stabilizes the plant. The controller design is based on a backstepping approach where delays are reformulated as hyperbolic transport PDEs. Infinity-norm stability analysis of the corresponding closed-loop system is a...

In this paper, a control scheme based on state prediction is proposed for class of nonlinear systems subject to input delay and external disturbance. Firstly, as constant delay, an improved that combining with dynamic surface (DSC) technique proposed, which can compensate the completely. Secondly, by considering disturbance, effective controller prediction, DSC disturbance observer presented ta...
