In this work, we develop a robust adaptive well-balanced and positivity-preserving central-upwind scheme on unstructured triangular grids for shallow water equations. The numerical method is an extension of the from [{\sc Liu {\em et al.}},J. Comp. Phys, 374 (2018), pp. 213 - 236]. As part algorithm, obtain local posteriori error estimator efficient mesh refinement strategy. accuracy, high-reso...

inverse sampling design is generally considered to be appropriate technique when the population is divided into two subpopulations, one of which contains only few units. in this paper, we derive the horvitz-thompson estimator for the population mean under inverse sampling designs, where subpopulation sizes are known. we then introduce an alternative unbiased estimator, corresponding to post-str...

The sensitivity of the least-squares estimation in a regression model is impacted by multicollinearity and autocorrelation problems. To deal with multicollinearity, Ridge, Liu, Ridge-type biased estimators have been presented statistical literature. recently proposed Kibria-Lukman estimator one estimators. literature has compared others using mean square error criterion for linear model. It was...

Multiple sequence alignment plays a crucial role in extracting structural, functional, and evolutionary information from the exponentially growing sequence data from the ongoing genome sequencing. Based on the case study of retrotransposon sequence alignment, this thesis compares three alignment programs, DIALIGN, CLUSTALW, and PRRN, and proposes some strategies to improve alignment quality, su...

Along with the rapid growth of Chinese netizens and the impressive development in information communication technologies (ICTs) in China, there has been an increasing academic interest in the Chinese internet, particularly in its potential of promoting social movements, democracy and human rights (Qiu & Bu, 2013; Yang, 2012). However, when it comes to internet policy and governance, the voices ...

This paper derives new results on the active controller design for the output regulation problem of the LiuLiu-Liu-Su chaotic system (2006), which is one of the paradigms of 3-dimensional chaotic systems discovered by C. Liu, T. Liu, L. Liu and Y. Su. Explicitly, for the constant tracking problem, new state feedback control laws have been derived for regulating the output of the Liu-Liu-Liu-Su ...
