Load parameter identification of wind turbine rotor involving probability and interval variables

open access: yesApplied Mathematics in Science and Engineering, 2022
Knowledge of the load parameters of wind turbine rotor is the key problem to eliminate the misalignment of wind turbine. In this paper, an inverse method for identifying the load parameters with imprecise information is investigated by using the ...

On coherent immediate prediction: connecting two theories of imprecise probability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We give an overview of two approaches to probabiliity theory where lower and upper probabilities, rather than probabilities, are used: Walley's behavioural theory of imprecise probabilities, and Shafer and Vovk's game-theoretic account of probability. We

Temperature and Farm Labor in Nigeria

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We estimate the impact of temperature shocks on the composition of farm labor in rural Nigeria using a nationally representative household panel survey. Leveraging plausibly exogenous year‐to‐year variation in growing season temperatures, we find that warmer temperatures significantly alter farm labor composition, prompting a substantial shift

Using multinomial and imprecise probability for non-parametric modelling of rainfall in Manizales (Colombia)

open access: yesIngeniería e Investigación, 2008
This article presents a rainfall model constructed by applying non-parametric modelling and imprecise probabilities; these tools were used because there was not enough homogeneous information in the study area.

Adaptive image segmentation algorithm under the constraint of edge posterior probability

open access: yesIET Computer Vision, 2017
Image segmentation is an important step in image processing, but contemporary segmentation algorithms have problems such as poor anti‐noise performance, over‐segmentation, and imprecise results.

Evaluating the nuclear power plant safety system under neutrosophic environment [PDF]

open access: yesNeutrosophic Sets and Systems
The safety system of nuclear power plants is very crucial for protecting the environment and the living world. In this article, we have addressed the nuclear power plant safety system in a neutrosophic environment.

Methodology for the Assessment of Imprecise Multi-State System Availability

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Most existing studies of a system’s availability in the presence of epistemic uncertainties assume that the system is binary. In this paper, a new methodology for the estimation of the availability of multi-state systems is developed, taking into ...

Optimisation under uncertainty applied to a bridge collision problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We consider the problem of modelling the load on a bridge pillar when hit by a vehicle. This load depends on a number of uncertain variables, such as the mass of the vehicle and its speed on impact.

Extralevator Abdominoperineal Excision Improves Overall Survival Compared to Standard Abdominoperineal Excision: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis of 38 studies, encompassing over 5000 patients, compared extralevator abdominoperineal excision (ELAPE) with standard abdominoperineal excision (APE) in patients with advanced low rectal cancer. ELAPE was associated with significantly improved overall and disease‐free survival, reduced intraoperative perforation

Nearest-Neighbor Searching Under Uncertainty II

open access: yes, 2016
Nearest-neighbor search, which returns the nearest neighbor of a query point in a set of points, is an important and widely studied problem in many fields, and it has wide range of applications.
