Since 2015, the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) Foundation and its partners have been supporting regional programs and bilateral collaborations to develop an open global earthquake risk model. These efforts led to the ...

In this note we consider the class of weak nondifferential measurement error models, which as a special case, contains the class of the nondifferential measurement error models (Carroll et al., 1995). Examples of measurement ...

The objective of this paper is to utilize the SIPOC, flowchart and IDEF0 modeling techniques combined to elaborate the conceptual model of a simulation project. It is intended to identify the contribution of these techniques ...

This chapter compares two Bayesian nonparametric models that generalize the accelerated failure time model, based on recent work on probability models for predictor-dependent probability distributions. It begins by reviewing ...

Abstract: In a Data Warehouse (DW), ETL processes (Extraction, Transformation, Load) are responsible for extracting, transforming and loading data from the data sources into the DW. A good design of these processes in the ...

This work considers probability models for partitions of a set of n elements using a predictive approach, i.e., models that are specified in terms of the conditional probability of either joining an already existing cluster ...

Modeling languages have become one of the most important tools in helping to make Mathematical Programming technology easier to use. Having proven its usefulness, more attention is now being given to the improvement of the ...
