Abstract

The purpose of this monograph is to show that sufficient achievements in scaling applications have been made to justify serious study of scaling methodologies, particularly multidimensional scaling (MDS) as a tool for geographers. To be useful research, it was felt that the common methodological and technical problems that specialized researchers share with other scholars should be indicated by review of the applications, and that an adequate statement on the mathematics and heuristics of scaling algorithms is necessary. As a review of applications, subroutines in scaling programs are "dissected" in order to understand how certain critical parameters are defined and used. This research work is presented in three parts relating to 1) basic fundamentals of scaling, data requirements, and algorithm constructions and problems; 2) two step-by-step examples of the non-metric section of a multidimensional scaling algorithm; and 3) a review of geographical applications of the approach in a variety of problem areas. The position of this paper is that MDS provides a useful and constructive methodology for examining the problems of preference and choice for researchers in geography. In conclusion, some problems of using MDS are mentioned and its potential uses in geography given. (Author/ND)

Abstract

Summary: This Special Issue book focuses on the theory and practice of search engine optimization (SEO). It is intended for anyone who publishes content online and it includes five peer-reviewed papers from various researchers. More specifically, the book includes theoretical and case study contributions which review and synthesize important aspects, including, but not limited to, the following themes: theory of SEO, different types of SEO, SEO criteria evaluation, search engine algorithms, social media and SEO, and SEO applications in various industries, as well as SEO on media websites. The book aims to give a better understanding of the importance of SEO in the current state of the Internet and online information search. Even though SEO is widely used by marketing practitioners, there is a relatively small amount of academic research that systematically attempts to capture this phenomenon and its impact across different industries. Thus, this collection of studies offers useful insights, as well as a valuable resource that intends to open the door for future SEO-related research.

Abstract

With a more Internet-savvy and sophisticated user base, there are more demands for interactive applications and services. However, it is a challenge for existing radio access networks (e.g. 3G and 4G) to cope with the increasingly demanding requirements such as higher data rates and wider coverage area. One potential solution is the inter-collaborative deployment of multiple radio devices in a 5G setting designed to meet exacting user demands, and facilitate the high data rate requirements in the underlying networks. These heterogeneous 5G networks can readily resolve the data rate and coverage challenges. Networks established using the hybridization of existing networks have diverse military and civilian applications. However, there are inherent limitations in such networks such as irregular breakdown, node failures, and halts during speed transmissions. In recent years, there have been attempts to integrate heterogeneous 5G networks with existing ad hoc networks to provide a robust solution for delay-tolerant transmissions in the form of packet switched networks. However, continuous connectivity is still required in these networks, in order to efficiently regulate the flow to allow the formation of a robust network. Therefore, in this paper, we present a novel network formation consisting of nodes from different network maneuvered by Unmanned Aircraft (UA). The proposed model utilizes the features of a biological aspect of genomes and forms a delay tolerant network with existing network models. This allows us to provide continuous and robust connectivity. We then demonstrate that the proposed network model has an efficient data delivery, lower overheads and lesser delays with high convergence rate in comparison to existing approaches, based on evaluations in both real-time testbed and simulation environment.

Abstract

In this paper a bootstrap algorithm for a reduced rank vector autoregressive model with a restricted linear trend and independent, identically distributed errors is analyzed. For testing the cointegration rank, the asymptotic distribution under the hypothesis is the same as for the usual likelihood ratio test, so that the bootstrap is consistent. It is furthermore shown that a bootstrap procedure for determining the rank is asymptotically consistent in the sense that the probability of choosing the rank smaller than the true one converges to zero.

14. Jointly Minimum BER Transmitter and Receiver FIR MIMO Filters for Binary Signal Vectors (Book).

Author

Subjects

Abstract

A theory is developed for jointly minimizing the bit error rate (BER) between the desired and decoded signals with respect to the coefficients of transmitter and receiver finite impulse response (FIR) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) filters. The original signal is assumed to be a vector time-series with equally likely memory less Bernoulli vector components. The channel model constitutes of a known FIR MIMO transfer function and Gaussian additive noise independent of the original signal. The channel input signal is assumed to be power constrained. Based on the formulas obtained, an iterative numerical optimization algorithm is proposed. When compared with other design methods available in the literature, the proposed method yields better results due to the generality of the model considered and the joint optimization of the transmitter-receiver pair.

Abstract

This piece briefly introduces my Painting By Numbers, which aims to take the core messages of the QL/QR community from academic and professional circles to the rest of the citizenry. I describe the book in the context of the critical need for the most basic numeracy tools to help consumers of news, information, and analysis--delivered through traditional and contemporary social media outlets--determine where a reported numerical result lies on the scale from utter nonsense to a widely established and accepted "fact."

Abstract

This article focuses on the book "Theorie des Graphes et ses Applications," by Claude Berge. The term graph, the subject of this book has not the common connotation of a plot or curve, but refers to an established but esoteric mathematical sage. The geometric aspect of the above definition is not the heart of the matter, graphs can be symbolic diagrams of a rich variety of situations. The points can represent almost any kind of object and the arcs almost any type of interrelation between them. There is a chapter on transportation networks in the book. It includes Ford-Fulkerson algorithms and the theorems of Hoffman and Gale. Besides questions of optimizing transport and routing the same techniques are fitted to the problem of minimal covering, some combinational teasers, problems in a set theory, and linear programming are also given. The methods continue to solve problems in some subsequent chapters. In what are called simple graphs, the vertices are divided into two sets such that all arcs connect only members of one set with points of the other.
