Computer Simulation, Measurement, and Data Assimilation

open access: yesBritish Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 2017
This article explores some of the roles of computer simulation in measurement. A model-based view of measurement is adopted and three types of measurement—direct, derived, and complex—are distinguished.

Exploiting Opportunistic Coding in Throwbox-Based Multicast in Vehicular Delay Tolerant Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
In vehicular delay tolerant networks (VDTNs), multicast has been increasingly popular due to new applications, among which large contents such as multimedia files play a major role. Under this circumstance, existing works have failed to provide efficient

Using simulation studies to evaluate statistical methods [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2017
Simulation studies are computer experiments that involve creating data by pseudo‐random sampling. A key strength of simulation studies is the ability to understand the behavior of statistical methods because some “truth” (usually some parameter/s of ...

On the Epistemology of Computer Simulation

open access: yesZeitschrift für Medien- und Kulturforschung, 2011
"Der Aufsatz plädiert dafür, die Geschichte der wissenschaftlichen Computersimulation auf eine spezifisch medienhistorische Weise zu untersuchen. Nach einigen Vorschlägen zur Charakterisierung der Besonderheiten von Computersimulationen werden zwei Beispiele interpretiert (Management-Simulationen der 1960er und verkehrstechnische bzw.

A Computational Framework for Bioimaging Simulation [PDF]

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2015
Using bioimaging technology, biologists have attempted to identify and document analytical interpretations that underlie biological phenomena in biological cells. Theoretical biology aims at distilling those interpretations into knowledge in the mathematical form of biochemical reaction networks and understanding how higher level functions emerge from ...

Computer simulation of fatigue under diametrical compression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We study the fatigue fracture of disordered materials by means of computer simulations of a discrete element model. We extend a two-dimensional fracture model to capture the microscopic mechanisms relevant for fatigue, and we simulate the diametric ...

RoboTHOR: An Open Simulation-to-Real Embodied AI Platform [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2020
Visual recognition ecosystems (e.g. ImageNet, Pascal, COCO) have undeniably played a prevailing role in the evolution of modern computer vision. We argue that interactive and embodied visual AI has reached a stage of development similar to visual ...

An Adaptive Management Model for Brown Bears in Hokkaido: Based on Total Population and the Number of Nuisance Bears

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Bear management changes management actions according to the horizontal axis of the population size and the vertical axis of the number of nuisance bears. Aiming for the target population size of Ntar, Actions I and II protect the bears, and Action IV reduces the population.
