Almost Settling the Hardness of Noncommutative Determinant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper, we study the complexity of computing the determinant of a matrix over a non-commutative algebra. In particular, we ask the question, "over which algebras, is the determinant easier to compute than the permanent?" Towards resolving this ...

Elaborating the Challenges of Health Insurance Extent of Coverage and Proposing Solutions from Experts Perspectives

open access: yesRāhburdhā-yi Mudīriyyat dar Niẓām-i Salāmat, 2022
Background: The health insurance extent of coverage was decided by the Health Insurance Organization in order to manage costs. In this plan, to determine the extent of payment by each medical center, the performance of the year 2017 was considered the ...

Determinant of a new fermionic action on a lattice - (I) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We investigate, analytically and numerically, the fermion determinant of a new action on a (1+1)-dimensional Euclidean lattice. In this formulation the discrete chiral symmetry is preserved and the number of fermion components is a half of that of Kogut ...

High-dimensional covariance estimation by minimizing ℓ1-penalized log-determinant divergence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Given i.i.d. observations of a random vector X 2 R p , we study the problem of estimating both its covariance matrix ∗ , and its inverse covariance or concentration matrix ∗ = ( ∗ ) −1 .

Country-level and regional COVID-19 burden and determinants across OECD member states and partner countries

open access: yesEnvironmental Health and Preventive Medicine, 2022
Background: COVID-19 pandemic is tremendously impacted by socioeconomic and health determinants worldwide. This study aimed to determine factors associated with COVID-19 fatality among member states and partner countries of the Organization for Economic ...

Determinants of confirmation [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2007
Epistemologists often suppose that the extent to which evidence e confirms hypothesis H depends on probabilities involving e and H, and nothing more. We show experimentally that human reasoners sometimes violate this assumption.

Determining Environmental Determinism

open access: yesProgress in Human Geography, 2012
This commentary is a direct response to the Forum article ‘Environmentalist thinking and/in geography’ by Radcliffe et al. (2010) . Two main problems are addressed: the perpetuation of a false analogy between cultural and biological evolution, and a misunderstanding of memes.

The boundary of the orbit of the 3 by 3 determinant polynomial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We consider the 3 by 3 determinant polynomial and we describe the limit points of the set of all polynomials obtained from the determinant polynomial by linear change of variables. This answers a question of J.

The phospholipid PI(3,4)P2 is an apical identity determinant

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Apical-basal polarization is essential for epithelial tissue formation, segregating cortical domains to perform distinct physiological functions. Cortical lipid asymmetry has emerged as a determinant of cell polarization.

On the expressive power of read-once determinants

open access: yes, 2015
We introduce and study the notion of read-$k$ projections of the determinant: a polynomial $f \in \mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ is called a {\it read-$k$ projection of determinant} if $f=det(M)$, where entries of matrix $M$ are either field elements or ...
