A Class of New Metrics for n-Dimensional Unit Hypercube
We study the metric on the n-dimensional unit hypercube. We introduce a class of new metrics for the space, which is information theoretically motivated and has close relation to Jensen-Shannon divergence.

The biharmonic homotopy problem for unit vector fields on 2-tori
The bienergy of smooth maps between Riemannian manifolds, when restricted to unit vector fields, yields two different variational problems depending on whether one takes the full functional or just the vertical contribution. Their critical points, called

Personalized Mortality Prediction Driven by Electronic Medical Data and a Patient Similarity Metric
Background Clinical outcome prediction normally employs static, one-size-fits-all models that perform well for the average patient but are sub-optimal for individual patients with unique characteristics.

Computational Problems in Metric Fixed Point Theory and their Weihrauch Degrees [PDF]
We study the computational difficulty of the problem of finding fixed points of nonexpansive mappings in uniformly convex Banach spaces. We show that the fixed point sets of computable nonexpansive self-maps of a nonempty, computably weakly closed ...

The nature of ligand efficiency
Ligand efficiency is a widely used design parameter in drug discovery. It is calculated by scaling affinity by molecular size and has a nontrivial dependency on the concentration unit used to express affinity that stems from the inability of the ...

A Statistical Priority-Based Scheduling Metric for M2M Communications in LTE Networks
Resource allocation, or scheduling, is one of the main challenges that face supporting machine-to-machine (M2M) communications on long term evolution networks. M2M traffic has unique characteristics.

On non-commutative Minkowski spheres
The purpose of the following is to try to make sense of the stereo- graphic projection in a non-commutative setup. To this end, we consider the open unit ball of a ternary ring of operators, which naturally comes equipped with a non-commutative version ...

Complexity measure based on sensitivity analysis applied to an intensive care unit system
This work proposes a system complexity metric and its application to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) system. The methodology for applying said complexity metric comprises: (i) parameters sensitivity indices calculation, (ii) mapping connections dynamics ...

The separation performance of a fixed bed adsorption unit is dictated by a combination of two metrics: selectivity and uptake capacity. Most commonly, the screening of adsorbent materials on the basis of either of these metrics leads to contradicting ...
