Estimated conditional score function for missing mechanism model with nonignorable nonresponse

Missing data mechanism often depends on the values of the responses, which leads to nonignorable nonresponses. In such a situation, inference based on approaches that ignore the missing data mechanism could not be valid. A crucial step is to model the nature of missingness. We specify a parametric model for missingness mechanism, and then propose a conditional score function approach for estimation. This approach imputes the score function by taking the conditional expectation of the score function for the missing data given the available information. Inference procedure is then followed by replacing unknown terms with the related nonparametric estimators based on the observed data. The proposed score function does not suffer from the non-identifiability problem, and the proposed estimator is shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal. We also construct a confidence region for the parameter of interest using empirical likelihood method. Simulation studies demonstrate that the proposed inference procedure performs well in many settings. We apply the proposed method to a data set from research in a growth hormone and exercise intervention study.     

On the proof of Erdős’ inequality

Using undergraduate calculus, we give a direct elementary proof of a sharp Markov-type inequality \({\left\| {p'} \right\|_{\left[ { - 1,1} \right]}} \leqslant \frac{1}{2}{\left\| p \right\|_{\left[ { - 1,1} \right]}}\) for a constrained polynomial p of degree at most n, initially claimed by P. Erd?s, which is different from the one in the paper of T.Erdélyi (2015). Whereafter, we give the situations on which the equality holds. On the basis of this inequality, we study the monotone polynomial which has only real zeros all but one outside of the interval (?1, 1) and establish a new asymptotically sharp inequality.     

Kontsevich–Zagier integrals for automorphic Green’s functions. II

We introduce interaction entropies, which can be represented as logarithmic couplings of certain cycles on a class of algebraic curves of arithmetic interest. In particular, via interaction entropies for Legendre–Ramanujan curves \( Y^n=(1-X)^{n-1}X(1-\alpha X)\) (\( n\in \{6,4,3,2\}\)), we reformulate the Kontsevich–Zagier integral representations of weight-4 automorphic Green’s functions \( G_2^{\mathfrak H/\overline{\varGamma }_0(N)}(z_1,z_2)\) (\(N=4\sin ^2(\pi /n )\in \{1,2,3,4\}\)), in a geometric context. These geometric entropies allow us to establish algebraic relations between certain weight-4 automorphic self-energies and special values of weight-6 automorphic Green’s functions.     

M/M/1 queue with <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis> kinds of differentiated working vacations

In this paper, we consider an M/M/1 vacation queueing system in which m different kinds of working vacations may be taken as soon as the system is empty. When parameters take proper different values, our model reduces to several classical models already studied in references. By quasi birth and death process and generalized eigenvalues method, we give the distributions for the number of customers and sojourn time in the system. Furthermore, we also give the stochastic decomposition results of such stationary indices.

The wave attenuation on the mud bed

In the paper the wave attenuation in a two layer fluid system is studied. The fluid in the top layer is ideal and that in the lower layer is the Voigt model of the viscoelastic medium. A dispersion relation is derived and the rate of the wave decay is computed. The approximate explicit expressions of the decay rate for different water depth are given, where the viscoelasticity is either very large or very small. Compared with the numerical results, our results are very accurate, which can be used by an engineer.

ANALYSIS OF FRICTION INDUCED VIBRATION UNDER THE ACTIVE DISTURBANCE REJECTION CONTROL FRAMEWORK 1)

自抗扰控制(active disturbance rejection control, ADRC)是一种具有两自由度控制结构的工程化方法, 由于其能够直观有效地处理多种扰动, 近些年来在许多机电系统上得到了成功应用. 当采用ADRC对带有摩擦力的机电系统进行调节时, 可能会产生极限环振动. 目前, 还没有ADRC框架下摩擦力振动精确分析的相关工作. 因此, 本文采用非线性动力学系统的分析工具对这一问题进行研究. 首先, 考虑两种典型摩擦力模型, 静态切换模型和动态LuGre 模型, 对一类二阶运动系统设计不同阶次的ADRC, 得到控制器的等效形式, 并揭示出与比例积分微分(proportional-integral-derivative, PID)控制之间的联系. 然后, 采用打靶法结合拟弧长延拓方法求解系统中的极限环, 并根据Floquet理论判断极限环的稳定性、可能出现的分岔以及分岔类型. 此外, 通过雅克比矩阵和近似数值方法对系统平衡点集的局部稳定性进行了分析. 最后, 通过数值计算研究了摩擦力模型和参数、ADRC阶次和参数对极限环和平衡点集的影响. 计算结果表明, 决定摩擦力Stribeck效应负斜率的参数$\beta$作用较大. 当$\beta>1$时, 两种摩擦力模型下的闭环系统呈现出相同的特性, 极限环会出现环面折叠分岔(cyclic fold bifurcation, CFB)且平衡点集是局部稳定的. 然而当$\beta<1$时, 两种闭环系统呈现出完全不同的特性. 此外, 不同阶次的ADRC在极限环的存在性和稳定性、平衡点集的稳定性上面的结论是相同的, 而低阶次的ADRC能够更好地解决摩擦力补偿和稳定鲁棒性之间的矛盾问题. 这些结论对实际现象的理解、ADRC阶次的选择以及参数整定提供了一定指导.     

Turbulent Energy Scale-Budget Equations for nearly Homogeneous Sheared Turbulence

For moderate Reynolds numbers, the isotropic relation between second-order and third-order moments for velocity increments (Kolmogorov's equation) is not respected, reflecting a non-negligible correlation between the scales responsible for the injection, transfer and dissipation of the turbulent energy. For (shearless) grid turbulence, there is only one dominant large-scale phenomenon, which is the non-stationarity of statistical moments resulting from the decay of energy downstream of the grid. In this case, the extension of Kolmogorov's analysis, as carried out by Danaila, Anselmet, Zhou and Antonia, J. Fluid Mech. 391, 1999 359-369) is quite straightforward. For shear flows, several large-scale phenomena generally coexist with similar amplitudes. This is particularly the case for wall-bounded flows, where turbulent diffusion and shear effects can present comparable amplitudes. The objective of this work is to quantify, in a fully developed turbulent channel flow and far from the wall, the influence of these two effects on the scale-by-scale energy budget equation. A generalized Kolmogorov equation is derived. Relatively good agreement between the new equation and hot-wire measurements is obtained in the outer region (40 < x ⁺ ₃ < 150) of the channel flow, for which the turbulent Reynolds number is R _λ≈ 36.     

Assessment of a three-component vorticity probe in decaying turbulence

Measurements in grid turbulence with a three-component hot-wire vorticity probe are compared with results obtained from a direct numerical simulation of decaying homogeneous turbulence at a similar Reynolds number. There is adequate agreement for both spectra and probability density functions of all three vorticity fluctuations. This supports the treatment of the measured data, in particular the corrections that need to be applied for the finite spatial resolution of the probe. The comparison does, however, highlight some inaccuracies in the way the instantaneous dissipation rate fluctuations were obtained experimentally.
