This paper describes an algorithm for maximising a conditional likelihood function when the corresponding unconditional likelihood function is more easily maximised. The algorithm is similar to the EM ...

The yield curve is a fundamental input parameter of valuation theories in capital markets. Information about yields can be observed in a discrete form, either directly through traded yield instruments ...

Trigonometric functions are often used in embedded systems. Motor drivecontrol applications such as the Park Transform, Clarke Transform, andPWMgeneration use trigonometric functions extensively.

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We describe a new MCMC method optimized for the sampling of probability measures on Hubert space which have a density with respect to a ...

BARCELONA, Spain—A deep-learning algorithm designed to identify local cardiac structures and estimate cardiac function does a better job than sonographer estimates at consistently measuring left ...

Modern robotic systems—in drones or autonomous vehicles, for example—use a variety of sensors, ranging from cameras and accelerometers to GPS modules. To date, their correct integration has required ...

A long line of Federal Circuit precedent holds that a function in a software claim under 35 U.S.C. 112, sixth paragraph, must refer to a corresponding “algorithm” in the specification. Absence of an ...
