Chaos is often explained in terms of random behaviour; and having positive Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy (KSE) is taken to be indicative of randomness. Although seemly plausible, the association of positive KSE with random behaviour needs justification since the definition of the KSE does not make reference to any notion that is connected to randomness. A common way of justifying this use of the KSE...

In order to accurately determine sex hormone dependency and hormone responsiveness in human esophageal carcinoma, the effects of sex hormones on the growth of esophageal carcinoma cell lines, KSE-1 and KSE-2 cells, were examined in vitro and in vivo. Cell proliferation of cultured KSE-1 cells was inhibited by treatment of estradiol and enhanced by dihydrotestosterone (DHT), whereas KSE-2 cells ...

In suitable parameter regimes the Integral Boundary Layer equation (IBLe) can be formally derived as a long wave approximation for the flow of a viscous incompressible fluid down an inclined plane. For very long waves with small amplitude, the IBLe can be further reduced to the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation (KSe). Here we justify this reduction of the IBL to the KSe. Using energy estimates we s...

On an influential account, chaos is explained in terms of random behaviour; and random behaviour in turn is explained in terms of having positive Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy (KSE). Though intuitively plausible, the association of the KSE with random behaviour needs justification since the definition of the KSE does not make reference to any notion that is connected to randomness. I provide this ju...

The development of high-level behavior for autonomous robots is a time-consuming task even for experts. This paper presents a ComputerAided Software Engineering (CASE) tool, named Kouretes Statechart Editor (KSE), which enables the developer to easily specify a desired robot behavior as a statechart model utilizing a variety of base robot functionalities (vision, localization, locomotion, motio...

This work focuses on linear finite-dimensional output feedback control of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation (KSE) with periodic boundary conditions. Under the assumption that the linearization of the KSE around the zero solution is controllable and observable, linear finite-dimensional output feedback controllers are synthesized that achieve stabilization of the zero solution, for any value of ...

This paper investigates the rank distribution, cumulative probability, and probability density of price returns for the stocks traded in the KSE and the KOSDAQ market. This research demonstrates that the rank distribution is consistent approximately with the Zipf’s law with exponent α = −1.00 (KSE) and −1.31 (KOSDAQ), similar to that of stock prices traded on the TSE. In addition, the cumulativ...

This proposal is primarily aimed at the third group of agent systems. In addition to the study of the design of individual agents and communities, recent work has focused on allowing diverse agents and communities to interoperate. This is the goal of the Knowledge Sharing Effort [KSE] (Patil et.al., 1992). The Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language [KQML] (Finin et.al., 1993) is the componen...

In this paper, we use a methodology that was recently proposed by Antoniades and Christofides to compute the optimal actuator/sensor locations for the stabilization, via nonlinear static output feedback control, of the zero solution of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation (KSE) for values of the instability parameter for which this solution is unstable. The theoretical results are illustrated thro...
