Novel Fano Type Lower Bounds On The Minimum Error Probability Of List $M$-Ary Hypothesis Testing, Berkan Dülek Jan 2023

Novel Fano Type Lower Bounds On The Minimum Error Probability Of List $M$-Ary Hypothesis Testing, Berkan Dülek

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

he problem of list $M$-ary hypothesis testing with fixed list size $L< M$ is considered. Based on some random observation, the test outputs a list of $L$ candidates out of $M$ possible hypotheses. The probability of list error is defined as the probability of the event that the list output by the test does not contain the true hypothesis that has generated the observation. An identity is derived that relates the minimum average probability of error of the optimal list hypothesis test to the minimum average probability of error of an optimal maximum a posteriori probability decision rule. The latter decides among an alternative set of hypotheses corresponding to all possible $L$-component mixtures of the distributions that characterize the observation under the original $M$ candidate hypotheses. As an application, the proposed identity is employed to obtain novel Fano type lower bounds on the minimum error probability of list $M$-ary hypothesis testing.

On Generalized Darboux Frame Of A Spacelike Curve Lying On A Lightlike Surface In Minkowski Space $\Mathbb{E}^{3}_{1}$, Jelena Djordjevic, Emilija Nesovic, Ufuk Öztürk

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper we introduce generalized Darboux frame of a spacelike curve $\alpha$ lying on a lightlike surface in Minkowski space $\mathbb{E}_{1}^{3}$. We prove that $\alpha$ has two such frames and obtain generalized Darboux frame's equations. We find the relations between the curvature functions $k_g$, $k_n$, $\tau_g$ of $\alpha$ with respect to its Darboux frame and the curvature functions $\tilde{k}_{g}$, $\tilde{k}_{n}$, $\tilde{\tau}_{g}$ with respect to generalized Darboux frames. We show that such frames exist along a spacelike straight line lying on a ruled surface which is not entirely lightlike, but contains some lightlike points. We define lightlike ruled surfaces on …

A Robust Model For Spot Virtual Machine Bidding In The Cloud Market Using Information Gap Decision Theory (Igdt), Mona Naghdehforoushha, Mehdi Dehghan Takht Fooladi, Mohammed Hossein Rezvani, Mohammad Mehdi Gilanian Sadeghi

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The spot market is one of the most common cloud markets where cloud providers, such as Amazon EC2, rent their surplus computing resources at lower prices in the form of spot virtual machines (SVMs). In this market, which is often managed through an auction mechanism, users seek optimal bidding strategies for renting SVMs to minimize cost and risk. Uncertainty in the price of SVMs and their low availability/reliability is a challenging issue to bid on the user side. In this paper, we present a robust model for minimizing the cost of executing tasks by considering the uncertainty of the price …

On The Relation Between Oscillation Of Solutions Of Differential Equations And Corresponding Equations On Time Scales, Olexandr Stanzhytskyi, Roza Uteshova, Victoriia Tsan, Zoia Khaletska

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

This paper studies oscillatory properties of solutions of a dynamic equation on the set of time scales $\mathbf{T}_\lambda$ provided that the graininess function $\mu_\lambda$ approaches zero as $\lambda\to 0$. We derived the conditions under which oscillation of solutions of differential equations implies that of solutions of the corresponding equations defined on time scales with the same initial data, and vice versa.

Some Remarks On Parameterized Inequalities Involving Conformable Fractional Operators, Ci̇han Ünal, Fati̇h Hezenci̇, Hüseyi̇n Budak

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we prove an identity for differentiable convex functions related to conformable fractional integrals. Moreover, some parameterized inequalities are established by using conformable fractional integrals. To be more precise, parameterized inequalities are obtained by taking advantage of the convexity, the Hölder inequality, and the power mean inequality. Furthermore, previous and new results are presented by using special cases of the obtained theorems.

The Set Of Arf Numerical Semigroups With Given Frobenius Number, María Ángeles Moreno-Frías, Jose Carlos Rosales Jan 2023

The Set Of Arf Numerical Semigroups With Given Frobenius Number, María Ángeles Moreno-Frías, Jose Carlos Rosales

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

A covariety is a nonempty family $C$ of numerical semigroups that satisfies a certain conditions. In this work we will show that if $F$ is a positive integer, then the set of Arf numerical semigroup with Frobenius number $F$, denoted by $(F)$, is a covatiety. The previous results will be used to give an algorithm which calculates the set $(F).$ Also we will see that if $X\subseteq S\backslash \Delta(F)$ for some $S\in (F),$ then there is the smallest element of $(F)$ containing $X.$

Estimation Of The Work Of Adhesion Between Ito And Polymer Substrates: A Surface Thermodynamics Approach, Sali̇h Özbay

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Indium tin oxide (ITO) is one of the most widely used semiconductor among transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) due to their electrical conductivity and optical transparency properties. Since the development of low temperature deposition methods, coating of ITO on polymer substrates especially for use in flexible electronics has been a popular topic. The existence of adequate adhesion strength between ITO and polymer is critical in producing a successful film. Nowadays, polycarbonate (PC), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polyethyleneterephtalate (PET) are frequently used as substrates for such coatings.
