On Delays in Project Completion With Cost Reduction: An Experiment

We examine the voluntary provision of a public project via binary contributions when contributions may be made over multiple periods. In many situations, early contributors are likely to pay a higher cost than those who wait. We show that in such circumstances the provision of the project always involves delay. Since this game involves coordination on complex, dynamic strategies in the face of ...

Predicting Results of a Biological Experiment Using Matrix Completion Algorithms

Biologists from McMaster’s Brown Lab are interested in the mechanism of action of uncharacterized inhibitors of the growth of bacteria. To achieve their goal, they systematically combined 186 small molecules of unknown action with 14 known antibiotics of diverse mechanisms. The result of all these experiments is a 186 × 14 matrix of “synergy values” between 186 small molecules and 14 known anti...

An Introduction to Natural Experiment Studies

در دو سخن سردبیری شماره‌های قبل به مطالعات مداخله‌ای (Interventional and/or experimental studies) [1] و مطالعات نیمه تجربی (studies Quasi-experiment) [2] پرداختیم. همان جا، به این نکته اشاره کردیم که برای اندازه‌گیری کارآیی یک دارو، واکسن، برنامه بهداشت عمومی و متغیرهای دیگری از این دست، مطالعات مداخله‌ای بهترین گزینه هستند. تقسیم تصادفی و کورسازی از مؤلفه‌های اساسی یک مطالعه مداخله‌ای است [1]....

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
