A New Approach To The Numerical Solution Of Fractional Order Optimal Control Problems, T. Akbarian, M. Keyanpour Dec 2013

A New Approach To The Numerical Solution Of Fractional Order Optimal Control Problems, T. Akbarian, M. Keyanpour

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this article, a new numerical method is proposed for solving a class of fractional order optimal control problems. The fractional derivative is considered in the Caputo sense. This approach is based on a combination of the perturbation homotopy and parameterization methods. The control function u(t) is approximated by polynomial functions with unknown coefficients. This method converts the fractional order optimal control problem to an optimization problem. Numerical results are included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the method.


Certain Fractional Integral Operators And The Generalized Incomplete Hypergeometric Functions, H. M. Srivastava, Praveen Agarwal Dec 2013

Certain Fractional Integral Operators And The Generalized Incomplete Hypergeometric Functions, H. M. Srivastava, Praveen Agarwal

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we apply a certain general pair of operators of fractional integration involving Appell’s function F3 in their kernel to the generalized incomplete hypergeometric functions pΓq[z] and pɣq [z], which were introduced and studied systematically by Srivastava et al. in the year 2012. Some interesting special cases and consequences of our main results are also considered.


Generalized Fractional Integral Of The Product Of Two Aleph-Functions, R. K. Saxena, J. Ram, D. Kumar Dec 2013

Generalized Fractional Integral Of The Product Of Two Aleph-Functions, R. K. Saxena, J. Ram, D. Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper is devoted to the study and develops the generalized fractional integral operators for a new special function, which is called Aleph-function. The considered generalized fractional integration operators contain the Appell hypergeometric function F3 as a kernel. We establish two results of the product of two Aleph-functions involving Saigo-Maeda operators. On account of the general nature of the Saigo-Maeda operators and the Aleph-function, some results involving Saigo, Riemann-Liouville and Erdélyi-Kober integral operators are obtained as special cases of the main result.


A Subdivision-Regularization Framework For Preventing Over Fitting Of Data By A Model, Ghulam Mustafa, Abdul Ghaffar, Muhammad Aslam Jun 2013

A Subdivision-Regularization Framework For Preventing Over Fitting Of Data By A Model, Ghulam Mustafa, Abdul Ghaffar, Muhammad Aslam

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

First, we explore the properties of families of odd-point odd-ary parametric approximating subdivision schemes. Then we fine-tune the parameters involved in the family of schemes to maximize the smoothness of the limit curve and error bounds for the distance between the limit curve and the kth level control polygon. After that, we present the subdivision-regularization framework for preventing over fitting of data by model. Demonstration shows that the proposed unified frame work can work well for both noise removal and overfitting prevention in subdivision as well as regularization.
