Abstract

We give an algorithm that describes the singularity of all but finitely-many germs in a pencil generated by two arbitrary germs of plane curve.     

Generalized nets in neurology: an example of mathematical modelling

The purpose of this paper is to explain the basic theory of generalized nets (GNs) and their applications in the context of the differential diagnosis of neurological diseases. We define formally the concepts of a GN and transitions of a GN and also outline some remarks on their theory. The work here constructs an example which aims to trace the process of diagnosing different signs and symptoms in neurology. This will enable the interested reader to see the scope of nets in general as tools for the modelling, simulation, optimization and control of real processes.     

A new method for the automated selection of the number of components for deconvolving overlapping chromatographic peaks

Mathematical deconvolution methods can separate co-eluting peaks in samples for which (chromatographic) separation fail. However, these methods often heavily rely on manual user-input and interpretation. This is not only time-consuming but also error-prone and automation is needed if such methods are to be applied in a routine manner.     

LiBr分子基态光谱常数和分子常数研究

采用高精度的量子化学从头计算多参考组态相互作用方法和相关一致基, 计算了LiBr分子基态的光谱常数和势能曲线. 为获得更准确的结果, 计算中还考虑了二阶Douglas-Kroll-Hess相对论修正对LiBr分子基态的平衡键长、谐振频率和离解能影响. 将计算得到的势能曲线拟合为Murrell-Sorbie解析势能函数形式, 并进一步计算得到LiBr分子基态的其它光谱常数,ωeχe, αe, Be, D0. 比较发现它们与实验值符合的非常好. 通过求解核运动径向Schrodinger方程, 找到了LiBr分子基态的全部振动态. 还计算了每一个振动态的振动能级、经典转折点和惯性转动常数, 这些结果与已有的实验值一致.     

Model selection based on Lorenz and concentration curves,Gini indices and convex order

In order to determine an appropriate amount of premium, statistical goodness-of-fit criteria must be supplemented with actuarial ones when assessing performance of a given candidate pure premium. In this paper, concentration curves and Lorenz curves are shown to provide actuaries with effective tools to evaluate whether a premium is appropriate or to compare two competing alternatives. The idea is to compare the premium income for sub-portfolios gathering low risks (identified as low by means of the premiums under consideration) to the true one, or equivalently, to the actual losses. Numerical illustrations performed on hypothetical data and real ones demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed approach.     

An anisotropic area-preserving flow for convex plane curves

This paper will deal with an anisotropic area-preserving flow which keeps the convexity of the evolving curve and the limiting curve converges to a homothety of a symmetric smooth strictly convex plane curve.     

Rational points and Galois points for a plane curve over a finite field

We study the relationship between rational points and Galois points for a plane curve over a finite field. It is known that the set of Galois points coincides with that of rational points of the projective plane if the curve is the Hermitian, Klein quartic or Ballico–Hefez curve. The author proposes a problem: Does the converse hold true? If the curve of genus zero or one has a rational point, we have an affirmative answer.     

Investigation of the equality constraint effect on the reduction of the rotational ambiguity in three-component system using a novel grid search method

The obtained results by soft modeling multivariate curve resolution methods often are not unique and are questionable because of rotational ambiguity. It means a range of feasible solutions equally fit experimental data and fulfill the constraints. Regarding to chemometric literature, a survey of useful constraints for the reduction of the rotational ambiguity is a big challenge for chemometrician. It is worth to study the effects of applying constraints on the reduction of rotational ambiguity, since it can help us to choose the useful constraints in order to impose in multivariate curve resolution methods for analyzing data sets. In this work, we have investigated the effect of equality constraint on decreasing of the rotational ambiguity. For calculation of all feasible solutions corresponding with known spectrum, a novel systematic grid search method based on Species-based Particle Swarm Optimization is proposed in a three-component system.     

Assessment and distinction of commercial soy protein isolate product functionalities using viscosity characteristic curves

To simplify the assessment method of soy protein isolate（SPI） functionalities,the viscosity and functionalities of commercial SPI products were studied.Viscosity value（y） increases with increasing concentration（x） and exhibits a highly significant correlation with the exponential equation y = a·e^bx.The b values of products are gradually enhanced from dispersion,emulsion and injected to gel type.Products with low b values（<0.2）,and high dispersivity were dispersion-type.Products having high b values （>0.4） and gel springiness were gel-type.The other products with centered b value（0.2-0.4）,high solubility and emulsifying capacity were emulsion-type.
