Algorithms of data generation for deep learning and feedback design: A survey
Recent research reveals that deep learning is an effective way of solving high dimensional Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equations. The resulting feedback control law in the form of a neural network is computationally efficient for real-time applications of optimal control. A critical part of this design method is to generate data for training the neural...
A unified mechanical based approach to fracture properties estimates of rubbers subjected to aging
In this work, the influence of aging on the mechanical properties at break of rubber materials are examined. When subjected to physical-chemical aging, the structure of the rubber network is deeply modified through two main mechanisms: crosslinking and chain scission. These aging mechanisms act both on the mechanical behaviour and on the fracture p...
Enhanced parametric shape descriptions in PGD-based space separated representations
Space separation within the Proper Generalized Decomposition—PGD—rationale allows solving high dimensional problems as a sequence of lower dimensional ones. In our former works, different geometrical transformations were proposed for addressing complex shapes and spatially non-separable domains. Efficient implementation of separated representations...
Invite your friend and you'll move up in line: Optimal design of referral priority programs
Problem definition: This paper studies the optimal design of referral priority programs, in which customers on a waiting list can jump the line by inviting their friends to also join the waiting list. Academic/practical relevance: Recent years have witnessed a growing presence of referral priority programs as a novel customer-acquisition strategy f...
Matching IRT Models to Patient-Reported Outcomes Constructs: The Graded Response and Log-Logistic Models for Scaling Dep...
Item response theory (IRT) model applications extend well beyond cognitive ability testing, and various patient-reported outcomes (PRO) measures are among the more prominent examples. PRO (and like) constructs differ from cognitive ability constructs in many ways, and these differences have model fitting implications. With a few notable exceptions,...

Using Item Response Theory to Identify Responders to Treatment: Examples with the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement ...
The reliable change index has been used to evaluate the significance of individual change in health-related quality of life. We estimate reliable change for two measures (physical function and emotional distress) in the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) 29-item health-related quality of life measure (PROMIS-29 v2.1)...

Exact solutions for the formation of stagnant caps of insoluble surfactant on a planar free surface
A class of exact solutions is presented describing the time evolution of insoluble surfactant to a stagnant-cap equilibrium on the surface of deep water in the Stokes flow regime at zero capillary number and infinite surface P´eclet number. This is done by demonstrating, in a two-dimensional model setting, the relevance of the forced complex Burger...
