Quantum histories without contrary inferences

In the consistent histories formulation of quantum theory it was shown that it is possible to retrodict contrary properties. We show that this problem do not appear in our formalism of generalized contexts for quantum histories.     

Going Off the Grid: Iterative Model Selection for Biclustered Matrix Completion

We consider the problem of performing matrix completion with side information on row-by-row and column-by-column similarities. We build upon recent proposals for matrix estimation with smoothness constraints with respect to row and column graphs. We present a novel iterative procedure for directly minimizing an information criterion to select an appropriate amount of row and column smoothing, namely, to perform model selection. We also discuss how to exploit the special structure of the problem to scale up the estimation and model selection procedure via the Hutchinson estimator, combined with a stochastic Quasi-Newton approach. Supplementary material for this article is available online.     

����Copula������Ӧ��-ǿ��ģ�Ϳɿ��ȵķDz�������

In this paper, a nonparametric method for reliability of the stress-strength model is proposed when the dependent stress variable and strength variable are subject to right censoring. The dependence between variables is measured by the common Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern copula function and Clayton copula function. Using the empirical process theory, consistency and asymptotic normality of the proposed estimator is established in this paper. The results of numerical simulation show that the proposed method performs well in the case of finite sample. The method proposed in this paper has a wide application prospect in practice.

A posteriori error analysis for nonconforming approximations of an anisotropic elliptic problem

We develop in this article an a posteriori error estimator for the P₁‐nonconforming finite element approximation, for a diffusion‐reaction equation. We adopt the error in a constitutive law approach in two and three dimensional space, for not necessary piecewise constant data of problems. The efficiency and the reliability of our estimators are proved, neither Helmholtz decomposition of the error nor saturation assumption. The constants are explicitly given, which prove the robustness of these estimators. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 31: 950–976, 2015

Robust hierarchical a posteriori error estimators for stabilized convection–diffusion problems

We construct a hierarchical a posteriori error estimator for a stabilized finite element discretization of convection‐diffusion equations with height Péclet number. The error estimator is derived without the saturation assumption and without any comparison with the classical residual estimator. Besides, it is robust, such that the equivalence between the norm of the exact error and the error estimator is independent of the meshsize or the diffusivity parameter. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
