Mutation rate may be condition dependent, whereby individuals in poor condition, perhaps from high mutation load, have higher mutation rates than individuals in good condition. Agrawal (J. Evol. Biol.15, 2002, 1004) explored the basic properties of fitness-dependent mutation rate (FDMR) in infinite populations and reported some heuristic results for finite populations. The key parameter governi...

This paper deals with the observer design problem for a class of state-delayed nonlinear systems with or without time-varying norm-bounded parameter uncertainty. The nonlinearities under consideration are assumed to satisfy the global Lipschitz conditions and appear in both the state and measured output equations. The problem we address is the design of a nonlinear observer such that the result...

Conventional techniques for optimal experimental design are based on local sensitivity analysis to quantify parameter effects on the output. However, one of the key challenges for experimental design is that the local sensitivity is dependent on the unknown parameter values for a nonlinear model. This problem can be addressed if the sensitivity matrix, used in experimental design, could be comp...

Handling variable ambient noise is a challenging task for automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. To address this issue, multi-style, noise condition independent (CI) model training using speech data collected in diverse noise environments, or uncertainty decoding techniques can be used. An alternative approach is to explicitly approximate the continuous trajectory of Gaussian component mea...

It is known that Noncommutative QED (NCQED) exhibits Gribov ambiguities in the Landau gauge. These are related to zero modes of Faddeev-Popov operator and arise ghost propagator when it has a pole. In this work, we establish positive for NCQED condition not have poles, so-called no-pole condition. This implemented path integral allows calculation photon momentum space, which dependent on square...

In this paper, free vibration analysis and forced vibration analysis of FG doubly clamped micro-beams is studied based on the third order shear deformation and modified couple stress theories. The size dependent dynamic equilibrium equations and both the classical and non-classical boundary conditions are derived using a variational approach. It is assumed that all properties of the FG micro-be...

Based on a successive convex programming method, an alternating iteration algorithm is proposed for solving parameter-dependent distributionally robust optimization. Under the Slater-type condition, convergence analysis of obtained. When objective function convex, modified and less-conservative solution Lastly, some numerical tests results are illustrated to show efficiency algorithm.
