in the present article, we focus on the numerical approximation of stochastic partial differential equations of itˆo type with space-time white noise process, in particular, parabolic equations. for each case of additive andmultiplicative noise, the numerical solution of stochastic diffusion equations is approximated using two stochastic finite difference schemes and the stability and consisten...

Recently, Liu and Wang described an interesting numerical method to a special class of interval quadratic programming, where the linear term in objective function and constraints involving interval coefficients (Appl. Math. Comput. (2007), doi:10.1016/j.amc.2006.12.007). In this paper, we generalize Liu and Wang’s method to general interval quadratic programming, where all coefficients in the o...

Multiple sequence alignment plays a crucial role in extracting structural, functional, and evolutionary information from the exponentially growing sequence data from the ongoing genome sequencing. Based on the case study of retrotransposon sequence alignment, this thesis compares three alignment programs, DIALIGN, CLUSTALW, and PRRN, and proposes some strategies to improve alignment quality, su...

Along with the rapid growth of Chinese netizens and the impressive development in information communication technologies (ICTs) in China, there has been an increasing academic interest in the Chinese internet, particularly in its potential of promoting social movements, democracy and human rights (Qiu & Bu, 2013; Yang, 2012). However, when it comes to internet policy and governance, the voices ...

This paper derives new results on the active controller design for the output regulation problem of the LiuLiu-Liu-Su chaotic system (2006), which is one of the paradigms of 3-dimensional chaotic systems discovered by C. Liu, T. Liu, L. Liu and Y. Su. Explicitly, for the constant tracking problem, new state feedback control laws have been derived for regulating the output of the Liu-Liu-Liu-Su ...
