one of the most important problems in the system reliability optimization is redundancy allocation problem that has been studied in different system configurations. k-out-of-n structure is a general system configuration and offers enhanced capabilities for analyzing more design problems. hence, in this paper, the redundancy allocation problem of k-out-of-n systems is studied. in the most previo...

Today, more and velocity observations are available online or on-demand. However, this amount of data is complex to analyze since span different temporal baselines. Velocities obtained from a small baseline close the derivative displacement but likely be contaminated by noise. long approximate mean between two dates can affected decorrelation. Having short baselines provides redundancy that nee...

By virtue of Γ−convergence arguments, we investigate the stability of variational eigenvalues associated with a given topological index for the fractional p−Laplacian operator, in the singular limit as the nonlocal operator converges to the p−Laplacian. We also obtain the convergence of the corresponding normalized eigenfunctions in a suitable fractional norm.

Feature selection method for text classification based on information gain ranking, improved by removing redundant terms using mutual information measure and inclusion index, is proposed. We report an experiment to study the impact of term redundancy on the performance of text classifier. The result shows that term redundancy behaves very similar to noise and may degrade the classifier performa...

In this paper a set of de nitions describing general real number representation sys tems is presented Our purpose is to nd a su ciently wide model de nition including classical systems signed digit notation linear numeration systems p adic numbers symmetric level index arithmetic but speci c enough to make it possible to build some practical results We focuse on the redundancy property and the ...

In this paper, the redundancy resolution methods for elastic joint redundant robots are researched. First, a redundancy resolution method called MD method is proposed by using joint elastic deflection as a performance index. And then, the influence of robots’ initial configuration on this method is discussed. Finally, simulations for a planar 3R redundant robot with elastic joints are conducted...

Rigidity theory enables us to specify the conditions of unique localizability in the cooperative localization problem of wireless sensor networks. This paper presents a combinatorial rigidity approach to measure (i) generic rigidity and (ii) generalized redundant rigidity properties of graph structures through graph invariants for the localization problem in wireless sensor networks. We define ...

In this article we introduce the concept of Two Level Hypermedia. We describe a conceptual model for Hypermedia, and focus especially on the concept of a view. We introduce the concept of a power index expression as a structured characterization mechanism. Next we describe a characterization calculus, starting from the characterizations of fragments. This provides us with a means of comparing H...

We consider the problem of designing low-redundancy codes in settings where one must correct deletions conjunction with substitutions or adjacent transpositions; a combination errors that is usually observed DNA-based data storage. One most basic versions this was settled more than 50 years ago by Levenshtein, who proved binary Varshamov-Tenengolts arbitrary edit error, i.e., deletion substitut...
