In this paper we present some classes of high-order semi-Lagrangian schemes for solving the periodic one-dimensional Vlasov-Poisson system in phase-space on uniform grids. We prove that the distribution function f(t, x, v) and the electric field E(t, x) converge in the L2 norm with a rate of O ( ∆t + h + hm+1 ∆t ) , where m is the degree of the polynomial reconstruction, and ∆t and h are respec...

This document contains proofs and additional experiments for the paper " The Falling Factorial Basis and Its Statistical Applications ". In Section A, we provide proofs to the key technical results in the main paper. In Section B, we give some motivating arguments and additional experiments for the higher order KS test.

A time series is a sequence of data collected at successive time points. While most techniques for time series analysis have been focused on univariate time series data at fixed intervals, there are many applications where time series data are collected at irregular and uncertain time intervals across multiple input variables. The uncertainty in multivariate time series makes analysis difficult...

An analogy is presented between music and linguistic discourse in terms of lexical cohesion. Linguistic discourse and music are two different manifestations of human communication. They are both meaningful and coherent, and both are processes inherently temporal. Lexical cohesion is a semantic relation manifested in the lexical level of language. A short sample of discourse is analysed and comp...

K → ππ, KL-KS mass difference, KL → γγ and the Dalitz decays of KL are studied systematically by assuming that their amplitude can be described in terms of a sum of short distance and long distance contributions. Dominance of the short distance effect on the KL-KS mass difference will be checked by the Dalitz decays of KL in a way consistent with the K → ππ and KL → γγ decays.

Aims: Moral distress elicits some responses from nurses. Identifying these responses can lead into developing effective strategies which assist nurses with facing them. The present study tries to elicit responses of ICU nurses to moral

This paper presents a Chinese short text classification method which considering extended semantic constraints and statistical constraints. This method uses “HowNet” tools to build the attribute set of concept. when coming to the part of feature expansion, we judge the collocation between the attribute words of original text and the characteristics before and after expansion as the semantic con...
