Least Squares Fitting of Chacón-Gielis Curves by the Particle Swarm Method of Optimization

open access: yes
Ricardo Chacón generalized Johan Gielis's superformula by introducing elliptic functions in place of trigonometric functions. In this paper an attempt has been made to fit the Chacón-Gielis curves (modified by various functions) to simulated data by the ...

Decomposition-Based Method for Sparse Semidefinite Relaxations of Polynomial Optimization Problems [PDF]

open access: yes
We consider polynomial optimization problems pervaded by a sparsity pattern. It has been shown in [1, 2] that the optimal solution of a polynomial programming problem with structured sparsity can be computed by solving a series of semidefinite ...

A novel three-phase trajectory informed search methodology for global optimization

open access: yes, 2019
A new deterministic method for solving a global optimization problem is proposed. The proposed method consists of three phases. The first phase is a typical local search to compute a local minimum.

Intelligent Tutoring Systems for Adult Learning in STEM Disciplines

open access: yesNew Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) are reshaping adult learning in STEM by providing adaptive, data‐driven instruction across classrooms, workplaces, and informal environments. In the context of ITS, this article compares generative AI, which creates personalized explanations and practice materials, with explainable AI, which focuses on ...

An exact global optimization method for deriving weights from pairwise comparison matrices

open access: yes, 2006
Some multiple-criteria decision making methods rank actions by associating weights to the different criteria or actions, which are pairwise compared via a positive reciprocal matrix A.

Clinical Spectrum and Outcomes of SOX1 Antibody‐Associated Paraneoplastic Neurological Syndromes: A Chinese Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background SOX1 antibody‐positive paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) exhibit significant population‐specific clinical heterogeneity. While Western cohorts predominantly manifest Lambert‐Eaton myasthenic syndrome (65%–80%), comprehensive clinical characterization and treatment response data in Asian populations remain critically ...

Two-Stage Global–Local Aerodynamic/Stealth Optimization Method Based on Space Decomposition

open access: yesAerospace
The design of the flying wing airfoil must consider aerodynamic stealth and trim requirements, with their coupling exacerbating the complexity of the design problem by introducing multiple local minimum points in design space.

CX3CL1 in Early Detection of Alzheimer's Disease: Plasma Dynamics Across Age and Disease Stages

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Backgrounds Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by amyloid‐beta plaques, tau tangles, and neuroinflammation. C‐X3‐C motif chemokine ligand 1 (CX3CL1, also known as fractalkine), a neuroimmune chemokine implicated in AD pathogenesis, shows inconsistent alterations in plasma/serum across studies.
