Accelerating debate

Debate Debate

Geocomputation is an emerging field of research that advocates the use of computationally intensive techniques such as neural networks, heuristic search, and cellular automata for spatial data analysis. Since increasing amounts of health-related data are collected within a geographical frame of reference, geocomputational methods show increasing potential for health data analysis. This paper pr...

Accelerating, hyper-accelerating, and decelerating probabilistic networks

Many growing networks possess accelerating statistics where the number of links added with each new node is an increasing function of network size so the total number of links increases faster than linearly with network size. In particular, biological networks can display a quadratic growth in regulator number with genome size even while remaining sparsely connected. These features are mutually...

Accelerating Structures

Oscillating fields in tree space, far from all sources (i.e., at distances r very much larger than the wavelength X of the radiation), consist of a sum of all possible traveling electromagnetic waves. Provided the particles to be accelerated are traveling less than the velocity of light, acceleration2 can occur. Once the velocity approaches that of light, only waves traveling in the same direct...

Accelerating beams.

We demonstrate that any two-dimensional accelerating beam can be described in a canonical form in Fourier space. In particular, we demonstrate that there is a one-to-one correspondence between complex functions in the real line (the line spectrum) and accelerating beams. An arbitrary line spectrum can be used to generate novel accelerating beams with diverse transverse shapes. The line spectra ...
