Integrable Discrete Massive Thirring Model, Junchao Chen, Bao-Feng Feng

School of Mathematical & Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications

In this paper, we are concerned with integrable semi- and fully discrete analogues of the massive Thirring model in light core coordinates. By using the Hirota’s bilinear approach and the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) hierarchy reduction method, we propose both the semi- and fully discrete massive Thirring models and construct their multi-bright soliton solutions.

Seemingly Unrelated Exponetiated Exponential Geometric Regression Model, Oluwaseun Michael Famoni, Bamidele Mustapha Oseni

Al-Bahir

In the class of seemingly unrelated regression models, the dispersion nature of the dependent variable can greatly impact the efficiency and reliability of the parameter estimates for the model. Despite this, the seemingly unrelated Poisson regression model and seemingly unrelated negative binomial model are two most commonly used count data models for these class of regression models. This study introduces the seemingly unrelated exponentiated exponential geometric regression (SUEEGR) for modelling count data which might be equi-, under, or over-dispersed. Parameters estimation for the model was carried out using the method of maximum likelihood. A simulation study was carried out to …

Context Matching Is Not Reasoning When Performing Generalized Clinical Evaluation Of Generative Language Models, Andrew Wen, Qiuhao Lu, Yu-Neng Chuang, Guanchu Wang, Jiayi Yuan, Jiamu Zhang, Liwei Wang, Sunyang Fu, Kurt D Miller, Heling Jia, Steven D Bedrick, William R Hersh, Kirk E Roberts, Xia Hu, Hongfang Liu

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Current discussion surrounding the clinical capabilities of generative language models(GLMs) predominantly centers around multiple-choice question-answer(MCQA) benchmarks derived from clinical licensing examinations. While accepted for human examinees, characteristics unique to GLMs bring into question the validity of such benchmarks. Here, we validate five benchmarks using eight GLMs, ablating for parameter size and reasoning capabilities, validating via prompt permutation three key assumptions that underpin the generalizability of MCQA-based assessments: that knowledge is applied, not memorized, that semantic consistency will lead to consistent answers, and that situations with no answers can be recognized. While large models are more resilient to our perturbations compared …

Optimizing Runtime Memory Size Of Smith-Waterman Algorithm For Long Sequences Alignment, Imad Qasim Habeeb, Zeyad Qasim Habeeb, Hanan Najm Abdulkhudhur

Baghdad Science Journal

Sequence alignment is used to help researchers see areas of similarity between two sequences. Hence, it is a key component of many applications, such as DNA matching, plagiarism detection, and spelling correction. The Smith-Waterman algorithm (SWA) is widely used to calculate the sequence alignment because it is guaranteed to find an optimal solution. This algorithm creates a matrix of the size n * m where the symbols n, m refers to the lengths of two sequences needed to be aligned.

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This work discusses about the topic as the two-way communication retrial inventory queue model, the (s, S) replenishment policy, immediate feedback, Bernoulli vacations, and impatient customers. The assumption we make is that arrivals follow a Markovian arrival process, and the server provides phase type services. When the server is idle and there is a positive inventory, an arriving customer immediately receives service. If not, arriving customers goes to orbit with infinite capacity. Only in the account of positive inventory the server renders rapid feedback for incoming call arrivals, otherwise customer departs. Outgoing calls will only be made by the server …

Several parameters are defined based on the set of all neighborhoods of vertices and are explored. This article delves into the well-known problem of the existence of a …

Distance-Dependent Connectivity In The Brain Facilitates High Dynamical And Structural Complexity, Victor J. Barranca

Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Works

Recent experiments have revealed that the inter-regional connectivity of the cerebral cortex exhibits strengths spanning over several orders of magnitude and decaying with distance. We demonstrate this to be a fundamental organizing feature that fosters high complexity in both connectivity structure and network dynamics, achieving an advantageous balance between integration and differentiation of information. This is verified through analysis of a multi-scale neuronal network model with nonlinear integrate-and-fire dynamics, incorporating inter-regional connection strengths decaying exponentially with spatial separation at the macroscale as well as small-world local connectivity at the microscale. Through numerical simulation and optimization over the model parameterspace, we …
