Recently, a generalized passivity concept for linear multivariable systems was obtained which allows circumventing the restrictiveness of the usual passivity concept. The latter is associated with the classical SPR (Strictly ...

Frailty models are generally used to model heterogeneity and dependence between individuals. The distribution of the frailty variable is often assumed to be continuous. However, there are situations where a discretely-distributed ...

This paper proposes a methodology to address the classification of images that have been acquired from remote sensors. One common problem in classification is the high dimensionality of multivariate characteristics. The ...

Background and Objectives: The American Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (ACL) is a disease of complex chain of transmission subject to various determinants, in the same region. Theaim was to analyze the ACL behavior and identify ...

ASTM D6729 gas chromatographic fingerprinting coupled to pattern-recognition multivariate soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA) chemometric analysis provides an original and alternative approach to screening ...

In this paper we use multivariate affine generalized hyperbolic (MAGH) distributions, introduced by Schmidt et al. (2006), to show how to price multidimensional derivatives when the underlying asset follows a MAGH distribution. ...
