In this paper, we use a two-period one-to-one matching model with incomplete information to examine the effect of changes in divorce costs on marital dissolution. Each individual who has a nontransferable expected utility about the quality of each potential marriage decides whether to marry or to remain single at the beginning of the first period. Individuals married in the first period learn t...

This paper describes a new Map-Matching method relying on the use of Particle Filtering. Since this method implements a multi-hypothesis road-tracking strategy, it is able to handle ambiguous situations arising at junctions or when positioning accuracy is low. In this Bayesian framework, map-matching integrity can be monitored using normalized innovation residuals. An interesting characteristic...

This paper addresses 3-D hypothesis and mixed 3-D and 2-D verification as a means of obtaining high performance closed loop model-matching. Performance includes the following criteria: low computational expence; low failure rate; and good localisation. Hypotheses are based upon congruencies identified between 3-D scene and model descriptions. Verification is provided by quantitative evaluation ...
