The quantitative methods boot camp: teaching quantitative thinking and computing skills to graduate students in the life sciences. [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology, 2015
The past decade has seen a rapid increase in the ability of biologists to collect large amounts of data. It is therefore vital that research biologists acquire the necessary skills during their training to visualize, analyze, and interpret such data.

Workflow for Design of Experiments‐Based Modeling of Species Transport and Growth Kinetics in GaN Hydride Vapor Phase Epitaxy

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A novel workflow for investigating hydride vapor phase epitaxy for GaN bulk crystal growth is proposed. It combines Design of experiments (DoE) with physical simulations of mass transport and crystal growth kinetics, serving as an intermediate step between DoE and experiments.

Multiscale Quantum Harmonic Oscillator Algorithm With Strict Metastability Constraints for Multi-Modal Optimization

IEEE Access, 2019
Multi-modal optimization is a troublesome problem faced by optimization algorithms. The multiscale quantum harmonic oscillator algorithm (MQHOA) utilizes group statistics strategy to evaluate the state of the population and neglects the individual state.

Computational Approach Test using Likelihood Based Tests for the Equality of Inverse Gaussian Means

Revstat Statistical Journal
In this study, we propose three different test procedures by plugging the Wald (W), score (S) and likelihood ratio (LR) statistics into the computational approach test (CAT) to test the equality of inverse Gaussian means when the scale parameters are ...

Computer Tutor Versus Solving Problems by Hand: A Comparison in Statistics [PDF]

2015 ASEE Annual Conference and Exposition Proceedings, 2015
Computer tutor versus solving problems by hand: a comparison in statics While computer-based instruction can be used to automate the process of gradinghomework, sometimes its goal is to provide formative feedback to students whilelearning. Formative feedback is often straightforward to provide when students areperforming simple tasks, such as answering

Optimization using surrogate models and partially converged computational fluid dynamics simulations [PDF]

, 2006
Efficient methods for global aerodynamic optimization using computational fluid dynamics simulations should aim to reduce both the time taken to evaluate design concepts and the number of evaluations needed for optimization.
