We show the existing solution of Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PBE) to violate charge conservation principle, and then derive the correct formula for charge density distribution (ρe) in a fluid. We replaced unphysical old boundary conditions with some conditions that have never been used. Our result demonstrates that PBE cannot explain the formation of ‘Electric Double Layer’ (EDL); it follows th...

We address the problem of learning comprehensive syntactic profiles for a set of strings. Real-world datasets, typically curated from multiple sources, often contain data in various formats. Thus any data processing task is preceded by the critical step of data format identification. However, manual inspection of data to identify various formats is infeasible in standard big-data scenarios. We ...

The use of community detection algorithms is explored within the framework of cover song identification, i.e. the automatic detection of different audio renditions of the same underlying musical piece. Until now, this task has been posed as a typical query-by-example task, where one submits a query song and the system retrieves a list of possible matches ranked by their similarity to the query....

Visual resource discovery modes are discussed with a view to apply them in a wide variety of digital multimedia collections. The paradigms include summarising complex multimedia objects such as TV news, information visualisation techniques for document clusters, visual search by example, relevance feedback and methods to create browsable structures within the collection. These exploration modes...

RÉSUMÉ. Cet article décrit et défini l’utilisation de requêtes par l’exemple (QBE) dans le cadre de recherche symbolique d’images photographiques. La nouveauté de cette approche consiste en l’utilisation conjointe d’indexation symbolique automatique et d’un formalisme de représentation de connaissances pour représenter le contenu des images. De plus, le mécanisme d’abstraction perm la recherche...

This paper provides a non-technical introduction to a procedure to …nd Perfect Bayesian equilibria (PBEs) in incomplete information games. Despite the rapidly expanding literature on industrial organization that uses PBE as its main solution concept, most undergraduate and graduate textbooks still present a relatively theoretical introduction to PBEs. This paper o¤ers a systematic …ve-step proc...

This paper introduces two ideas, emotional state dependent utility components (ESDUCs), and evolutionary perfect Bayesian equilibrium (EPBE). Using a simple extensive form game, we illustrate the e¢ciency-enhancing role of a powerful ESDUC, the vengeance motive. Incorporating behavioral noise and observational noise leads to a range of (short run) Perfect Bayesian equilibria (PBE) involving bot...

This article presents a study of lemmatisation of flexible multiword expressions in Lithuanian. An approach based on syntactic analysis designed for multiword term lemmatisation was adapted for a broader range of MWEs taken from the Dictionary of Lithuanian Nominal Phrases. In the present analysis, the main lemmatisation errors are identified and some improvements are proposed. It shows that au...
