Quantum Probabilities as Behavioral Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
We demonstrate that behavioral probabilities of human decision makers share many common features with quantum probabilities. This does not imply that humans are some quantum objects, but just shows that the mathematics of quantum theory is applicable to ...

Ergodic Theorems for Lower Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
We establish an Ergodic Theorem for lower probabilities, a generalization of standard probabilities widely used in applications. As a by-product, we provide a version for lower probabilities of the Strong Law of Large Numbers.

Analysis of an algorithm catching elephants on the Internet [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2008
The paper deals with the problem of catching the elephants in the Internet traffic. The aim is to investigate an algorithm proposed by Azzana based on a multistage Bloom filter, with a refreshment mechanism (called $\textit{shift}$ in the present paper),

A variant of the Recoil Growth algorithm to generate multi-polymer systems [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2008
The Recoil Growth algorithm, proposed in 1999 by Consta $\textit{et al.}$, is one of the most efficient algorithm available in the literature to sample from a multi-polymer system.

A probabilistic analysis of a leader election algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2006
A leader election algorithm is an elimination process that divides recursively into tow subgroups an initial group of n items, eliminates one subgroup and continues the procedure until a subgroup is of size 1.

Mean field analysis for inhomogeneous bike sharing systems [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2012
In the paper, bike sharing systems with stations having a finite capacity are studied as stochastic networks. The inhomogeneity is modeled by clusters.

Criteria-Based Fuzzy Logic Risk Analysis of Wind Farms Operation in Cold Climate Regions

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Different risks are associated with the operation and maintenance of wind farms in cold climate regions, mainly due to the harsh weather conditions that wind farms experience in that region such as the (i) increased stoppage rate of wind turbines due to ...

Reduction of uncertainty using adaptive modeling under stochastic criteria of information content

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2023
Entropy is the concepts from the science of information must be used in the situation where undefined behaviors of the parameters are unknown. The behavior of the casual parameters representing the processes under investigation is a problem that the ...

Updating Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We show that Skilling's method of induction leads to a unique general theory of inductive inference, the method of Maximum relative Entropy (ME). The main tool for updating probabilities is the logarithmic relative entropy; other entropies such as those ...
