We study the tensor category of modules over a semisimple bialgebra H under the assumption that irreducible H -modules of the same dimension >1 are isomorphic. We consider properties of Clebsch–Gordan coefficients showing multiplicities of occurrences of each irreducible H -module in a tensor product of irreducible ones. It is shown that, in general, these coefficients cannot have small values....

model predictive controller is widely used in industrial plants. uncertainty is one of the critical issues in real systems. in this paper, the direct adaptive simplified model predictive control (smpc) is proposed for unknown or time varying plants with uncertainties. by estimating the plant step response in each sample, the controller is designed and the controller coefficients are directly ca...

The focus of this study is on the impact of World Bank structural adjustment operations on health expenditures and outcomes. We compare trends and levels of real per capita public spending on health, private consumption (which is the resource base for private health expenditures), and groupings child mortality indicators in four groups of countries. These are: (i) countries that started to borr...

Background. The healthy worker effect (HWE) is a source of bias in occupational studies of mortality among workers caused by use of comparative disease rates based on public data, which include mortality of unhealthy members of the public who are screened out of the workplace. For the US astronaut corp, the HWE is assumed to be strong due to the rigorous medical selection and surveillance. This...

This paper proposes a generalized objective function for the topology-finding of tensegrity structures to be able assign selection priorities different members and efficiently find multiple through single ground structure. The is constructed by sum product member internal forces weight coefficients. coefficients can defined adjusted freely change in process. By adjusting coefficients, generated...

A significant step in the design of Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration (HVAC-R) systems is to calculate the room thermal loads which often vary dynamically. A self-adjusting method is proposed for real-time calculation of heating/cooling loads in HVAC-R applications. In this method, the heat balance calculations are improved by realtime temperature data to achieve more ac...

This paper proposed an embedded image compression algorithm called Lossless Multi-Partitioning Successive Zero Coder (LMP-SZC) using the integer wavelet transform for progressive image transmission (PIT). By dynamically adjusting the partitions based on the space-frequency domain coefficients, our algorithm can achieve lower complexity and superior coding efficiency as compared with other well-...

Conventional approaches to embedding digital watermarks [1] are done by adjusting spatial pixel values or frequency coefficients. We propose a novel way to achieve attack detection by calculating the image’s fractal compression fixed point which is an approximation to the original image. After such transformation the fixed point image survives fractal image compression and is extremely sensitiv...

1. (a) Partial likelihood estimates of the coefficients in the proportional hazards model using , are shown below with standard errors. Those results suggest that, after adjusting for effects of the other variables in the model, patient-donor age interaction ( ), low risk for acute myelotic leukemia ( ) and the FAB morphology score ( ) have significant associations with disease free survival. 1...

We describe new planar multiport devices written by spatial solitons that are composed of several nonlinearly coupled components in Kerr-type media. Such devices have no radiation losses at a given wavelength. We demonstrate that, for the same relative angle between the input soliton-induced channels, one can vary the transmission coefficients into the output channels by adjusting the polarizat...
