In this paper, elements of differential game theory are used to analyze a spatially explicit home range model for interacting wolf packs when movement behavior is uncertain. The model consists of a system of partial differential equations whose parameters reflect the movement behavior of individuals within each pack and whose steady-state solutions describe the patterns of space-use associated ...

A crucial requirement for compliance-checking techniques is that observed behavior, captured in event traces, can be mapped to the process models that specify allowed behavior. Without a mapping, it is not possible to determine if observed behavior is compliant or not. A considerable problem in this regard is that establishing a mapping between events and process model activities is an inherent...

We analyze how market design influences the bidding behavior in multiunit procurement auctions where suppliers have uncertain costs and are uncertain about the availability of production units, as in wholesale electricity markets. We find that the competitiveness of market outcomes improves with increased market transparency. We identify circumstances where the auctioneer prefers uniform to dis...

We discuss the problem of scheduling tasks that consume uncertain amounts of a resource with known capacity and where the tasks have uncertain utility. In these circumstances, we would like to find schedules that exceed a lower bound on the expected utility when executed. We show that the problems are NP-complete, and present some results that characterize the behavior of some simple heuristics...

in this article the methodology proposed by li and wang for mixed qualitative and quantitative modeling and simulation of temporal behavior of processing unit is reexamined and extended to more complex case. the main issue of their approach considers the multivariate statistics of principal component analysis (pca), along with clustered fuzzy digraphs and reasoning. the pca and fuzzy clustering...

This paper presents a technique for an intelligent software robot (sobot) Rity to behave in uncertain environment in an appropriate manner. The intelligence of a robot is necessary to infer an appropriate behavior when various sensor data (stimuli) exist simultaneously and a specific behavior can be decided by a behavior controller. There could be various methods to build a behavior controller....

the option-pricing problem is always an important part in modern finance. assuming that the stock diffusion is a constant, some literature has introduced many stock models and given corresponding option pricing formulas within the framework of the uncertainty theory. in this paper, we propose a new stock model with uncertain stock diffusion for uncertain markets. some option pricing formulas on...

in this paper, controlling the gyros with linear plus cubic damping is considered. hence, an adaptive control algorithm is proposed to overcome the uncertainties in model parameters and the chaotic behavior of gyroscopes. it is noted that for general applications dynamic model coefficient of gyros is not precisely determined, on the other hand, with respect to a particular coefficient gyroscope...

Uncertain graphs are employed to describe graph models with indeterministicinformation that produced by human beings. This paper aims to study themaximum matching problem in uncertain graphs.The number of edges of a maximum matching in a graph is called matching numberof the graph. Due to the existence of uncertain edges, the matching number of an uncertain graph is essentially an uncertain var...
