Developing A Model To Predict Prevalence Of Compulsive Behavior In Individuals With Ocd, Lindsay D. Fields 2018 University of South Florida

Developing A Model To Predict Prevalence Of Compulsive Behavior In Individuals With Ocd, Lindsay D. Fields

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The most common method of diagnosing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale, which measures the severity of symptoms without regard to compulsions. However, this scale is limited to only considering the quantifiable time and energy lost to compulsions. Conversely, current systems of brain imaging arrest mobility and thus make it virtually impossible to observe compulsions at all, focusing instead on neurological responses to external stimuli. There is little research which merges both approaches, to consider the neuro-physiological effects of obsessions as well as the physical response through compulsions. As such, this research is focused on developing a model …


Recent Trends In The Frequency And Duration Of Global Floods, Nasser Najibi, Naresh Devineni 2018 CUNY City College

Recent Trends In The Frequency And Duration Of Global Floods, Nasser Najibi, Naresh Devineni

Publications and Research

Frequency and duration of floods are analyzed using the global flood database of the Dartmouth Flood Observatory (DFO) to explore evidence of trends during 1985–2015 at global and latitudinal scales. Three classes of flood duration (i.e., short: 1–7, moderate: 8–20, and long: 21 days and above) are also considered for this analysis. The nonparametric Mann–Kendall trend analysis is used to evaluate three hypotheses addressing potential monotonic trends in the frequency of flood, moments of duration, and frequency of specific flood duration types. We also evaluated if trends could be related to large-scale atmospheric teleconnections using a generalized linear model framework. …

Limit Behavior Of Mass Critical Hartree Minimization Problems With Steep Potential Wells, Yujin Guo, Yong Luo, Zhi-Qiang Wang

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

We consider minimizers of the following mass critical Hartree minimization problem: eλ(N) ≔ inf{u∈H1(ℝd),‖u‖22=N} Eλ(u), where d ≥ 3, λ > 0, and the Hartree energy functional Eλ(u) is defined by Eλ(u)≔∫Rd|∇u(x)|2dx + λ∫Rd g(x)u2(x)dx − 1/2∫Rd∫Rd {u2(x)u2(y)/|x−y|2} dxdy. Here the steep potential g(x) satisfies 0 = g(0) = infℝdg(x) ≤ g(x) ≤ 1 and 1 …

Rudolf Laban's Dream: Re-Envisioning And Re-Scoring Ballet, Choreutics, And Simple Functional Movements With Vector Signs For Deflecting Diagonal Inclinations, Jeffrey Scott Longstaff 2018 Taizhou University

Rudolf Laban's Dream: Re-Envisioning And Re-Scoring Ballet, Choreutics, And Simple Functional Movements With Vector Signs For Deflecting Diagonal Inclinations, Jeffrey Scott Longstaff

Journal of Movement Arts Literacy Archive (2013-2019)

Several methods of movement notation, forerunners of modern-day Labanotation/Kinetography were published by Rudolf Laban in his 1926 book Choreographie. One of these has been referred to as vector signs because they represent movement as orientations (slopes) of lines through space. This article begins by comparing Labanotation direction symbols with Laban's earlier vector signs by looking at differences when simple sequences are scored in both formats. Concepts of space within the vector signs are examined, particularly Laban's idea of deflecting inclinations where movements are categorized as mixtures of two fundamental contrasting spatial and dynamic tendencies: dimensional stability and diagonal mobility. This …

Computing Minimum Rainbow And Strong Rainbow Colorings Of Block Graphs, Melissa Karanen, Juho Lauri 2018 Michigan Technological University

Computing Minimum Rainbow And Strong Rainbow Colorings Of Block Graphs, Melissa Karanen, Juho Lauri

Michigan Tech Publications, Part 1

A path in an edge-colored graph G is rainbow if no two edges of it are colored the same. The graph G is rainbow-connected if there is a rainbow path between every pair of vertices. If there is a rainbow shortest path between every pair of vertices, the graph G is strongly rainbow-connected. The minimum number of colors needed to make G rainbow-connected is known as the rainbow connection number of G, and is denoted by src(G). Similarly, the minimum number of colors needed to make G strongly rainbow-connected is known as the strong rainbow connection number of G, and …


Gamma-Realizability And Other Musings On Inverse Domination, John Asplund, Joe Chaffee, James M. Hammer III, Matt Noble 2018 Dalton State College

Gamma-Realizability And Other Musings On Inverse Domination, John Asplund, Joe Chaffee, James M. Hammer Iii, Matt Noble

Theory & Applications of Graphs

We introduce and study γ-realizable sequences. For a finite, simple graph G containing no isolated vertices, I ⊆ V(G) is said to be an inverse dominating set if I dominates all of G and I is contained by the complement of some minimum dominating set D. Define a sequence of positive integers (x1,…, xn) to be γ-realizable if there exists a graph G having exactly n distinct minimum dominating sets D1,… Dn where for each i ∈ {1,… n}, the minimum size of an inverse dominating set in V(G) …


Soft Computing Ideas Can Help Earthquake Geophysics, Solymar Ayala Cortez, Aaron A. Velasco, Vladik Kreinovich 2018 The University of Texas at El Paso

Soft Computing Ideas Can Help Earthquake Geophysics, Solymar Ayala Cortez, Aaron A. Velasco, Vladik Kreinovich

Departmental Technical Reports (CS)

Earthquakes can be devastating, thus it is important to gain a good understanding of the corresponding geophysical processing. One of the challenges in geophysics is that we cannot directly measure the corresponding deep-earth quantities, we have to rely on expert knowledge, knowledge which often comes in terms of imprecise ("fuzzy") words from natural language. To formalize this knowledge, it is reasonable to use techniques that were specifically designed for such a formalization -- namely, fuzzy techniques, In this paper, we formulate the problem of optimally representing such knowledge. By solving the corresponding optimization problem, we conclude that the optimal representation …


Homomorphism Of Fuzzy Multigroups And Some Of Its Properties, P. A. Ejegwa 2018 University of Agriculture, Nigeria

Homomorphism Of Fuzzy Multigroups And Some Of Its Properties, P. A. Ejegwa

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In a way, the notion of fuzzy multigroups is an application of fuzzy multisets to the theory of group. The concept of fuzzy multigroups is a new algebraic structure of uncertainty which generalizes fuzzy groups. Fuzzy multigroup is a multiset of X x [0; 1] satisfying some set of axioms, where X is a classical group. In this paper, we propose the concept of homomorphism in fuzzy multigroups context. Some homomorphic properties of fuzzy multigroups are explicated. Again, we show that the homomorphic image and homomorphic preimage of fuzzy multigroups are also fuzzy multigroups. Finally, we present some homomorphic properties …


An Accelerate Process For The Successive Approximations Method In The Case Of Monotonous Convergence, A. Laouar, I. Mous 2018 Badji Mokhtar University of Annaba

An Accelerate Process For The Successive Approximations Method In The Case Of Monotonous Convergence, A. Laouar, I. Mous

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We study an iterative process to accelerate the successive approximations method in a monotonous convergence framework. It consists in interrupting the sequence of the successive approximations method produced at the kth iteration and substituting it by a combination of the element of the sequence produced at the iterate k + 1 and an extrapolation vector. The latter uses a parameter which can be calculated mathematically. We illustrate numerically this process by studying a freeboundary problems class.


An Ishikawa-Type Iterative Algorithm For Solving A Generalized Variational Inclusion Problem Involving Difference Of Monotone Operators, Mohd Ishtyak, Rais Ahmad 2018 Aligarh Muslim University

An Ishikawa-Type Iterative Algorithm For Solving A Generalized Variational Inclusion Problem Involving Difference Of Monotone Operators, Mohd Ishtyak, Rais Ahmad

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we study a generalized variational inclusion problem involving difference of monotone operators in Hilbert spaces. We established equivalence between the generalized variational inclusion problem and a fixed point problem. We establish an Ishikawa type iterative algorithm for solving a generalized variational inclusion problem involving difference of monotone operators, which is more general than Mann-type iterative algorithm. An existence result as well as a convergence result are proved separately. The problem of this paper is more general than many existing problems in the literature. Several special cases of generalized variational inclusion problem involving difference of monotone operators are …


Incomplete Generalized (P; Q; R)-Tribonacci Polynomials, Mark Shattuck, Elif Tan 2018 University of Tennessee

Incomplete Generalized (P; Q; R)-Tribonacci Polynomials, Mark Shattuck, Elif Tan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we consider an extension of the tribonacci polynomial, which we will refer to as the generalized (p; q; r)-tribonacci polynomial, denoted by Tn;m(x).We find an explicit formula for Tn;m(x)which we use to introduce the incomplete generalized (p; q; r)-tribonacci polynomials and derive several properties. An explicit formula for the generating function of the incomplete generalized polynomials is determined and a combinatorial interpretation is provided yielding further identities.


System Reliability Using Generalized Intuitionistic Fuzzy Rayleigh Lifetime Distribution, Ali Ebrahimnejad, Ezzatallah B. Jamkhaneh 2018 Islamic Azad University

System Reliability Using Generalized Intuitionistic Fuzzy Rayleigh Lifetime Distribution, Ali Ebrahimnejad, Ezzatallah B. Jamkhaneh

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Reliability analysis as one of the important research topics in engineering has been researched by a number of authors. Reliability in classical distributions is based on precise parameters. It is usually assumed that parameters of distributions are precise real numbers. However, in the real world, the data sometimes cannot be measured and recorded precisely. In this paper, the concept of fuzzy reliability is extended by the idea of generalized intuitionistic fuzzy reliability. We investigate the reliability characteristics of systems using Rayleigh lifetime distribution, in which the lifetime parameter is assumed to be generalized intuitionistic fuzzy number. Generalized intuitionistic fuzzy reliability, …

A New Approach To Solve Multi-Objective Transportation Problem, Lakhveer Kaur, Madhuchanda \ Rakshit, Sandeep Singh 2018 Guru Kashi University

A New Approach To Solve Multi-Objective Transportation Problem, Lakhveer Kaur, Madhuchanda \ Rakshit, Sandeep Singh

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, a simple approach is proposed to obtain the best compromise solution of linear multiobjective transportation problem (MOTP). Using this approach, we get unique efficient solution. Because unique efficient extreme point obtained by proposed approach directly leads to compromise solution, which is preferred by decision maker. Also this approach is simple to use and less time consuming. For the application of proposed approach, numerical examples are considered from existing literature and are solved with proposed method.
