The application of collocation methods using spline basis functions to solve differential model equations has been in use for a few decades. However, the application of spline collocation to the solution of the nonlinear, coupled, partial differential equations (in primitive variables) that define the motion of fluids has only recently received much attention. The issues that affect the effecti...

The aim of this talk is to present highly stable collocation based numerical methods for Volterra Integral Equations (VIEs). As it is well known, a collocation method is based on the idea of approximating the exact solution of a given integral equation with a suitable function belonging to a chosen finite dimensional space, usually a piecewise algebraic polynomial, which satisfies the integral ...

This report evaluates the impact of using a novel collocation segmentation method for phrase extraction in the standard phrase-based statistical machine translation approach. The collocation segmentation technique is implemented simultaneously in the source and target side. The resulting collocation segmentation is used to extract translation units. Experiments are reported in the Spanish-toEng...

In this paper, we derive error estimates for generalized interpolation, in particular collocation, in Sobolev spaces. We employ our estimates to collocation problems using radial basis functions and extend and improve previously known results for elliptic problems. Finally, we use meshless collocation to approximate Lyapunov functions for dynamical systems.

In this paper we give a complete analysis of the global convergence and local superconvergence properties of piecewise polynomial collocation for Volterra integral equations with constant delay. This analysis includes continuous collocation-based Volterra-Runge-Kutta methods as well as iterated collocation methods and their discretizations.

in this paper, we will present a review of the multistep collocation method for delay volterra integral equations (dvies) from [1] and then, we study the superconvergence analysis of the multistep collocation method for dvies. some numerical examples are given to confirm our theoretical results.

In this work we present numerical methods for the solution of Fredholm integral equations of the second type for smooth and piecewise smooth surfaces We use a collocation method based on piecewise polynomial interpolation of the solution We consider only collocation methods for which the collocation nodes are interior to each triangular face In Chapter II we give the general framework for collo...

Collocation translation is important for machine translation and many other NLP tasks. Unlike previous methods using bilingual parallel corpora, this paper presents a new method for acquiring collocation translations by making use of monolingual corpora and linguistic knowledge. First, dependency triples are extracted from Chinese and English corpora with dependency parsers. Then, a dependency ...

We present in this paper the convergence properties of Jacobi spectral collocation method when used to approximate the solution of multidimensional nonlinear Volterra integral equation. The solution is sufficiently smooth while the source function and the kernel function are smooth. We choose the Jacobi-Gauss points associated with the multidimensional Jacobi weight function [Formula: see text]...

The sparse grid stochastic collocation method is a new method for solving partial differential equations with random coefficients. However, when the probability space has high dimensionality, the number of points required for accurate collocation solutions can be large, and it may be costly to construct the solution. We show that this process can be made more efficient by combining collocation ...
