The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

Resistance to learning and the evolution of cooperation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In many evolutionary algorithms, crossover is the main operator used in generating new individuals from old ones. However, the usual mechanism for generating offsprings in spatially structured evolutionary games has to date been clonation.

Is the endophyte‐based plant protection against aphids mediated by changes in the insect microbiome?

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
We showed that the fungal endophyte Epichloë strain AR37 increased the plant resistance against aphids via the production of indole diterpene alkaloids. The reduction in aphid performance was not associated with changes in abundance/composition/diversity of the insect's bacterial microbiota, but additional endophyte effects on this microbiota cannot be

A tutorial for understanding SEM using R: Where do all the numbers come from?

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Structural equation modeling (SEM) is often seen as a complex and difficult method, especially for those who want to understand how the numbers in SEM software output are actually computed. Although many open‐source SEM tools are now available—especially in the R programming environment—looking into their source code to understand the ...

Asian Option Pricing with Orthogonal Polynomials

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper we derive a series expansion for the price of a continuously sampled arithmetic Asian option in the Black-Scholes setting. The expansion is based on polynomials that are orthogonal with respect to the log-normal distribution.

Numeryczne Modelowanie Procesów Fizycznych

open access: yesEngineering Transactions, 1961
Many physical processes are most conventiently described by partial differential equations relating the rates of change of the dependent variables to their space distributions.

An extension of the basic local independence model to multiple observed classifications

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The basic local independence model (BLIM) is appropriate in situations where populations do not differ in the probabilities of the knowledge states and the probabilities of careless errors and lucky guesses of the items. In some situations, this is not the case. This work introduces the multiple observed classification local independence model

Reliability measures in knowledge structure theory

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In knowledge structure theory (KST) framework, this study evaluates the reliability of knowledge state estimation by introducing two key measures: the expected accuracy rate and the expected discrepancy. The accuracy rate quantifies the likelihood that the estimated knowledge state aligns with the true state, while the expected discrepancy ...

Automated Bandwidth Selection for Inference in Linear Models With Time‐Varying Coefficients

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The problem of selecting the smoothing parameter, or bandwidth, for kernel‐based estimators of time‐varying coefficients in linear models with possibly endogenous explanatory variables is considered. We examine automated bandwidth selection by means of cross‐validation, a nonparametric variant of Akaike's information criterion, and bootstrap ...
