Dörfler marking with minimal cardinality is a linear complexity problem [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics of Computation, 89 (2020), 2735-2752, 2019
Most adaptive finite element strategies employ the D\"orfler marking strategy to single out certain elements $\mathcal{M} \subseteq \mathcal{T}$ of a triangulation $\mathcal{T}$ for refinement. In the literature, different algorithms have been proposed to construct $\mathcal{M}$, where usually two goals compete: On the one hand, $\mathcal{M}$ should ...

Edge Routing with Ordered Bundles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Edge bundling reduces the visual clutter in a drawing of a graph by uniting the edges into bundles. We propose a method of edge bundling drawing each edge of a bundle separately as in metro-maps and call our method ordered bundles.

Data‐driven performance metrics for neural network learning

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView., 2023
Summary Effectiveness of data‐driven neural learning in terms of both local mimima trapping and convergence rate is addressed. Such issues are investigated in a case study involving the training of one‐hidden‐layer feedforward neural networks with the extended Kalman filter, which reduces the search for the optimal network parameters to a state ...

A cost-minimization analysis in minimally invasive spine surgery using a national cost scale method

open access: yesInternational Journal of Surgery, 2015
The last decade has seen the emergence of minimally invasive spine surgery. However, there is still no consensus on whether percutaneous osteosynthesis (PO) or open surgery (OS) is more cost-effective in treatment of traumatic fractures and degenerative lesions. The objective of this study is to compare the clinical results and hospitalization costs of

Replica Approach for Minimal Investment Risk with Cost [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In the present work, the optimal portfolio minimizing the investment risk with cost is discussed analytically, where this objective function is constructed in terms of two negative aspects of investment, the risk and cost. We note the mathematical similarity between the Hamiltonian in the mean-variance model and the Hamiltonians in the Hopfield model ...

Electronic versus paper-based data collection for conducting health-care research: A cost-comparison analysis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Public Health, 2022
Background: Containing expenditure and efficient resource use is essential to limit the increasing costs of health research. Electronic data collection (EDC) is thought to reduce the costs compared to paper-based data collection (PDC).

Screening for childhood lead poisoning: a cost-minimization analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Public Health, 1994
Decision analysis was used to compare the costs of three screening strategies for childhood lead poisoning: (1) venipuncture; (2) capillary sample with venipuncture confirmation if the blood lead level is elevated; (3) stratification by risk, with venipuncture for high-risk children and capillary sample for low-risk children. Under baseline conditions,
