Comments on “Statistical reasoning with set-valued information: Ontic vs. epistemic view” by Inés Couso and Didier Dubois

I discuss some aspects of the distinction between ontic and epistemic views of sets as representation of imprecise or incomplete information. In particular, I consider its implications on imprecise probability representations: credal sets and sets of desirable gambles. It is emphasized that the interpretation of the same mathematical object can be different depending on the point of view from which this element is considered. In the case of a fuzzy information on a random variable, it is possible to define a possibility distribution on the simplex of probability distributions. I add some comments about the properties of this possibility distribution.     

Integral manifolds of impulsive fractional functional differential systems

In this paper, a class of impulsive Caputo fractional functional differential systems with variable impulsive perturbations is investigated. Sufficient conditions for the existence of integral manifolds are obtained. The main results are proved by means of piecewise continuous Lyapunov functions and the fractional comparison principle. The demonstrated techniques can be applied in studying properties of many applied problems of diverse interest.

A collocation method based on the Bessel functions of the first kind for singular perturbated differential equations and residual correction

In this paper, a collocation method is given to solve singularly perturbated two‐point boundary value problems. By using the collocation points, matrix operations and the matrix relations of the Bessel functions of the first kind and their derivatives, the boundary value problem is converted to a system of the matrix equations. By solving this system, the approximate solution is obtained. Also, an error problem is constructed by the residual function, and it is solved by the presented method. Thus, the error function is estimated, and the approximate solutions are improved. Finally, numerical examples are given to show the applicability of the method, and also, our results are compared by existing results. Copyright © 2014 JohnWiley & Sons, Ltd.

一种基于极坐标编码的果蝇优化算法

针对果蝇优化算法易陷入早熟收敛、收敛速度慢、寻优精度低的缺点,提出一种基于极坐标编码的果蝇优化算法.为提高果蝇优化算法的寻优精度,采用极坐标编码的形式,以增加单个母体寻优空间表示方法的多样性,并使种群中的个体,在围绕个体的整个超球体内随机搜索,使个体的搜索范围更加广泛.在迭代寻优过程中,根据适应度值和概率调整极角,逐渐降低观测结果的不确定性.通过9个基准测试函数,对基于极坐标编码的果蝇优化算法进行仿真实验,结果表明了算法在收敛性和稳定性方面,优于其它5个优化算法,测试结果验证了极坐标编码方法的有效性和可行性.     

Schur‐convexity and quadrature formulae

This paper aims to contribute to the exploration of quadrature formulae by proving that the error of a quadrature formula has the Schur‐convexity property. The emphasis is on the quadrature formulae with the maximum degree of precision. The Schur‐convexity of the error has an interesting implication – the monotonicity of the error. Namely, it turns out that the absolute value of the error is always smaller on a smaller interval (of the two which share the same midpoint).
