Leslie Matrices For Logistic Population Modeling, Bruce Kessler
Leslie Matrices For Logistic Population Modeling, Bruce Kessler
Bruce Kessler
Leslie matrices are taught as a method of modeling populations in a discrete-time fashion with more detail in the tracking of age groups within the population. Leslie matrices have limited use in the actual modeling of populations, since when the age groups are summed, it is basically equivalent to discrete-time modeling assuming exponential population growth. The logistic model of population growth is more realistic, since it takes into account a carrying capacity for the environment of the population. This talk will describe an adjustment to the Leslie matrix approach for population modeling that is both takes into account the carrying …

Peaklet Analysis: Software For Spectrum Analysis, Bruce Kessler
Bruce Kessler
This is the presentation I was invited to give at the Kentucky Innovation and Entrepreneurship Conference, regarding the software that I have developed and worked at commercializing with the help of Kentucky Science and Technology Corporation.
An Algorithm For Wavelet–Based Elemental Spectrum Analysis, Bruce Kessler
An Algorithm For Wavelet–Based Elemental Spectrum Analysis, Bruce Kessler
Mathematics Faculty Publications
At the previous Approximation Theory XII meeting, I discussed some preliminary work with the Applied Physics Institute at Western Kentucky University in using multiwavelets to provide an objective analysis of gamma-ray spectrum generated from fast neutron bombardment of objects, for the purpose of identifying the elemental composition of the object. The method discussed at the time worked moderately well with the limited amount of data provided, but subsequent use with data sets of different compounds and with different detectors brought to light serious flaws with its implementation.
This talk will illustrate those issues and will address how they have been …
