Efficient General Dominant Relationship Analysis based on Partial Order Models

Due to the importance of skyline query in many applications, it has been attracted much attention recently. Given a k-dimensional dataset D, a point p is said to dominate another point q if p is better than q in at least one dimension and equal to or better than q in the remaining dimensions. However, in some real applications, users are more interested in the detail of the general dominant rel...

Efficient Analyzing General Dominant Relationship Based on Partial Order Models

Skyline query is very important because it is the basis of many applications, e.g., decision making, user-preference queries. Given an N-dimensional dataset D, a point p is said to dominate another point q if p is better than q in at least one dimension and equal to or better than q in the remaining dimensions. In this paper, we study a generalized problem of skyline query that, users are more ...

The Dominant Role of Higher-Order Cognition

Background and Purpose: Research in recent years has revealed factors that are important predictors of physical and functional rehabilitation: demographic variables, visual and perceptual impairments, and psychological and cognitive factors. However, there is a remaining uncertainty about prediction of outcome and a need to clinically apply research findings. This study was designed to identify...

Partial second-order subdifferentials of -prox-regular functions

Although prox-regular functions in general are nonconvex, they possess properties that one would expect to find in convex or lowerC2  functions. The class of prox-regular functions covers all convex functions, lower C2  functions and strongly amenable functions. At first, these functions have been identified in finite dimension using proximal subdifferential. Then, the definition of prox-regula...
