The concept of average degree-eccentricity matrix ADE(G) of a connected graph $G$ is introduced. Some coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of ADE(G) are obtained, as well as a bound for the eigenvalues of ADE(G). We also introduce the average degree-eccentricity graph energy and establish bounds for it.

Diesel engine combustion releases many harmful components, thus there are continuous efforts into improving the efficiency of these engines and reducing gasses particulates to meet emission authorities targets. To develop sell new engine-related products, required run be audited in diesel test cells. A critical measurement for benchmark testing is exhaust back-pressure, which resultant flow fro...

As a consequence of the "large p small n" characteristic for microarray data, hypothesis tests based on individual genes often result in low average power. There are several proposed tests that attempt to improve power. Among these, the FS test that was developed using the concept of James-Stein shrinkage to estimate the variances showed a striking average power improvement. In this paper, we e...

This is an investigation of stochastic choice when only the average of the choices is observable. For example when one observes aggregate sales numbers from a store, but not the frequency with which each item was purchased. The focus of our work is on the Luce model, also known as the Logit model. We show that a simple path independence property of average choice uniquely characterizes the Luce...

We introduce a model-based average reward Reinforcement Learning method called H-learning and compare it with its discounted counterpart, Adaptive Real-Time Dynamic Programming, in a simulated robot scheduling task. We also introduce an extension to H-learning, which automatically explores the unexplored parts of the state space, while always choosing greedy actions with respect to the current ...

Introduction Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is achieved by collecting a series of Diffusion Weighted Images (DWI) with different diffusion weighted vectors. For each DWI, it is usually acquired with multiple repetitions to boost the signal to noise ratio. Most of the MRI consoles saved the DWI after the K-space averaging automatically. Some other MRI consoles, such as the Siemens 3T human scann...

uses of ‘average’ differ in several ways from concrete uses. In sentences of the sort we are focusing on, in which ‘average’ is part of a definite description in subject position, the truth conditions of examples with concrete ‘average’ can typically be paraphrased as generic statements. For example, (4a) is true just in case it generally holds that individuals who are New Yorkers and are avera...

Event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded from 27 children (14 girls, 13 boys) who varied in their reading skill levels. Both behavior performance measures recorded during the ERP word classification task and the ERP responses themselves discriminated between children with above-average, average, and below-average reading skills. ERP amplitudes and peak latencies decreased as reading skills...
