Problem definition: We consider the case of prescriptive policing, that is, data-driven assignment police cars to different areas a city. analyze key problems with respect prediction, optimization, and evaluation as well trade-offs between quality measures crime types. Academic/practical relevance: Data-driven analytics is gaining substantial attention in operations management research, effecti...

BACKGROUND Johnson and Dillon (2011) provided a model-based comparison of current generic hearing aid prescriptive methods for adults with hearing loss based on the attributes of speech intelligibility, loudness, and bandwidth. PURPOSE This study compared the National Acoustic Laboratories-Non-linear 2 (NAL-NL2) and Cambridge Method for Loudness Equalization 2-High-Frequency (CAM2) prescripti...

We investigate the consequences of elliptic leading singularities for unitarity-based representations two-loop amplitudes in planar, maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. show that diagonalizing with respect to these ensures integrand basis is termwise pure (suitably generalized, multiple polylogarithms, as necessary). also an alternative strategy based on a integrands differential forms;...

This paper describes Levels of conceptual interoperability model as the method and model towards enhancing interoperability among mobile apps. The LCIM is used in both descriptive and prescriptive form. In descriptive form LCIM is used to reduce the discrepancies in rating mobile apps based on content by suggesting a rating system that is completely based on interoperability. In the prescriptiv...

We pursue the idea that racial stereotypes are not only descriptive, reflecting beliefs about how racial groups actually differ, but are prescriptive as well, reflecting beliefs about how racial groups should differ. Drawing on an analysis of the historic and current status of East Asians in North America, we study descriptive and prescriptive stereotypes of East Asians along the dimensions of ...

Predictive process monitoring is concerned with the analysis of events produced during the execution of a process in order to predict the future state of ongoing cases thereof. Existing techniques in this field are able to predict, at each step of a case, the likelihood that the case will end up in an undesired outcome. These techniques, however, do not take into account what process workers ma...

background and aim: as the most perceived and articulated errors of hearing aid users occur in high frequency speech phonemes, this study aimed to find a way to amplify and reconstruct the errors. thus, the study first prepared a recorded form of two persian fricative consonants as stimulus; then, the rate of the prescribed gain of the two methods of national acoustic laboratories-nonlinear 2 (...

In this paper, we present property-driven design, a novel top-down design method for robot swarms based on prescriptive modeling and model checking. Traditionally, robot swarms have been developed using a codeand-fix approach: in a bottom-up iterative process, the developer tests and improves the individual behaviors of the robots until the desired collective behavior is obtained. The code-and-...
