Definitions of dependence distance

Edit-Distance Of Weighted Automata: General Definitions And Algorithms

The problem of computing the similarity between two sequences arises in many areas such as computational biology and natural language processing. A common measure of the similarity of two strings is their edit-distance, that is the minimal cost of a series of symbol insertions, deletions, or substitutions transforming one string into the other. In several applications such as speech recognition...

Definitions of distance function in radial basis function approach

Very few studies involve how to construct the efficient RBFs by means of problem features. Recently the present author presented general solution RBF (GS-RBF) methodology to create operator-dependent RBFs successfully [1]. On the other hand, the normal radial basis function (RBF) is defined via Euclidean space distance function or the geodesic distance [2]. This purpose of this note is to redef...

Dependence of inertial measurements of distance on accelerometer noise

An investigation is made into the errors in estimated position that are caused by noise and drift effects in stationary accelerometers. An analytical study is made into the effects of biases in the accelerometer data and the effects of changing the cut-off frequency in the anti-aliasing filter. The root mean square errors in position are calculated as a function of time and sampling frequency. ...

Definitions and Theories of Elder Abuse

Old age is one of the most crucial stages of human development that encompasses the dynamics of biological processes, perception, growth and development and maturity, as a natural process of life. The elderly as one of the vulnerable groups, they face different biological, psychological and social needs. As the population gets older, the elderly will need more support in their daily activities,...
