Speeding Up Bayesian HMM by the Four Russians Method

Bayesian computations with Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are often avoided in practice. Instead, due to reduced running time, point estimates – maximum likelihood (ML) or maximum a posterior (MAP) – are obtained and observation sequences are segmented based on the Viterbi path, even though the lack of accuracy and dependency on starting points of the local optimization are well known. We propose ...

NMD: A Surprising Twist Proposed by 'Some' Russians

Thus far, Russia backed by China and, to some extent by several European countries and Canada strongly opposes NMD deployment in contravention of the Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) treaty, which it considers the cornerstone of strategic stability.

The Berlin-based Russendisko night has been held in Tel Aviv, Milan, or Frankfurt, where enthusiastic people danced to songs of obscure Russian bands. In 2004, a new CD compilation, Russensoul, was published and in 2005 Karaoke, the ...

control of the optical properties of nanoparticles by laser fields

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
