A method for calculating the probability of customer demand satisfaction in production– inventory–customer systems with Markovian machines, finite finished goods buffers, and random demand is developed. Using this method, the degradation of this probability as a function of demand variability is quantified. In addition, it is shown by examples that the probability of customer demand satisfactio...

This paper proposes Temporal Echonest Features to harness the information available from the beat-aligned vector sequences of the features provided by The Echo Nest. Rather than aggregating them via simple averaging approaches, the statistics of temporal variations are analyzed and used to represent the audio content. We evaluate the performance on four traditional music genre classification te...

In this paper we present an enhanced version of the paper [8]. It deals with a new family of implicit functions used to provide a wide diversity of 3D surfaces. This family involves some usual functions such as: the rectangular pulses, the saw-tooth pulses, the triangular pulses, the staircase function and the power function. By combining these usual functions, named constituent functions, in o...

Results from recent studies investigating the dynamics of bimanual coordination have led to contrasting viewpoints concerning the relative contribution of perceptual and motor processes in mediating coordinative stability. At one end of the spectrum is the belief that coordination is governed primarily by physical limitations such as neuro-muscular constraints and that perceptual factors play l...

Introduction Conclusions References

We present a possible Cepheid-like luminosity estimator for the longduration gamma-ray bursts based on the variability of their light curves. We also present a preliminary application of this luminosity estimator to 907 long-duration bursts from the BATSE catalog.
