Promoting the development of green technologies and replacing fossil fuel vehicles with electric ones can abate environmental anxieties issues associated energy supply security. The increasing demand for requires an upgrade expansion available charging infrastructure to accommodate fast public adoption this type transportation. Ethiopia set a pro-electric cars policy made them excise-free even ...

in this paper, we present a computational method for solving boundary integral equations with loga-rithmic singular kernels which occur as reformulations of a boundary value problem for the laplacian equation. themethod is based on the use of the galerkin method with cas wavelets constructed on the unit interval as basis.this approach utilizes the non-uniform gauss-legendre quadrature rule for ...

Political scientists commonly focus on quantities of interest computed from model coe icients rather than on the coe icients themselves. However, the quantities of interest, such as predicted probabilities, first di erences, and marginal e ects, do not necessarily inherit the small-sample properties of the coe icient estimates. Indeed, unbiased coe icient estimates are neither necessary nor su ...

The allocation or assignment problem is one of the more important problems of management science. It may be stated very briefly: We are given a system with a number of vacant positions and an equal number of available parts. We know how well each part performs in each position; we wish to assign the parts to the positions so that system performance is optimized. Applications range far and wide,...

A conditional parametric ARX-model is an ARX-model in which the parameters are replaced by smooth functions of an, possibly multivariate, external input signal. These functions are called coe cientfunctions. A method, which estimates these functions adaptively and recursively, and hence allows for on-line tracking of the coe cientfunctions is suggested. Essentially, in its most simple form, thi...

I offer an approach linking a welfare criterion to the opportunities for sustainable development in an imperfect economy. The approach implies a dependence of the criterion on the economy’s current state. The economy-linked criterion is constructed using an example with the maximin principle applied to a hybrid level-growth measure. This measure includes as special cases the conventional measur...

Ar-Rh(III) pivalate complexes assembled in situ from the reaction of [RhCl(coe)2]2 (coe = cis-cyclooctene), [p-(CF3)C6H4]3P, and CsOPiv effectively catalyzed the direct C-arylation of free (NH)-indoles and (NH)-pyrroles in good yields and with high regioselectivity. The reaction displayed excellent functional group compatibility and low moisture sensitivity. Kinetics studies support a mechanism...

In this paper we study the problem of context modeling and entropy coding of the symbol streams generated by the well-known EZW image coder (embedded image coding using zerotrees of wavelet coe cients). We present some simple context modeling techniques that can squeeze out more statistical redundancy in the wavelet coe cients of EZW-type image coders and hence lead to improved coding e ciency.

I develop a method for e cient, multiscale template matching using orthogonal wavelet representations. I also develop an e cient approximate mechanism for initially nding the \correct" values for the basis coe cients ajk at the nest scale (as opposed to using the sample values as coe cients). I then present applications of these techniques to two important image coding/computer vision tasks: mo...
