Several models and/or several variable combinations could be used to predict the diameter distribution of a stand. Typically, a fi xed model and a fi xed variable combination is used in all conditions. The calibration procedure, however, makes it possible to choose the measurement combination from among many possibilities, although the model used is fi xed. In this study, the usefulness of util...

we introduce an implicit method for nding a common element of the set of solutions of systems of equilibrium problems and the set of common xed points of a sequence of nonexpansive mappings and a representation of nonexpansive mappings. then we prove the strong convergence of the proposed implicit schemes to the unique solution of a variational inequality, which is the optimality condition fo...

We examine the question of solving the extinction probability of a particular class of continuous-time multi-type branching processes, named Markovian binary trees (MBT). The extinction probability is the minimal nonnegative solution of a xed point equation that turns out to be quadratic, which makes its resolution particularly clear. We analyze rst two linear algorithms to compute the extincti...

For low complexity, mobile, hands-free, speaker independent connected digit recognition, a xed-point digital signal processor based implementation is essential. In this paper, we investigate algorithms for connected-digit recognition using whole-word digit models and a background model. We show that signi cant improvement can be achieved by using background model adaptation, continuously adapti...

The goal of this article is the study of the approximate controllability for two approximations of Navier Stokes equations with distributed controls. The method of proof combines a suitable lin-earization of the system with a xed point argument. We then are led to study the approximate controllability of linear Stokes systems with potentials. We study both the case where there is no constraint ...

The Jacobi algorithm for eigenvalue calculation of symmetric matrices can be performed with a CORDIC algorithm as its basic module. Recently, a simpliied Jacobi algorithm, by employing approximate rotations based on CORDIC rotations, was proposed. It fully exploits the binary data structure and reduces the overall computational cost signiicantly. In this paper an error analysis of the approxima...

In this paper, coupled xed point results of Bhaskar-Lakshmikantham type [T. Gnana Bhaskar, V.Lakshmikantham, Fixed point theorems in partially ordered metric spaces and applications, NonlinearAnalysis 65 (2006) 1379-1393] are extend, generalized, unify and improved by using monotonemappings instead mappings with mixed monotone property. Also, an example is given to supportthese improvements.

In this paper xed point and coincidence results are presented for two and three single-valued map-pings. These results extend previous results given by Rhoades (2003) and Djoudi and Merghadi(2008).

In fi shery applications of tag-recovery models, recovery probabilities are typically parameterised in terms of instantaneous rates of mortality, where the mortality rate can be a function of the size or age of a fi sh. For age-dependent tag-recovery models, past work on Pacifi c halibut used a fi xedage approach, in which the age of each fi sh was fi xed at the same value for each halibut of a...
