On Schur Convexity of Some Symmetric Functions
For and , the symmetric function is defined as , where are positive integers. In this paper, the Schur convexity, Schur multiplicative convexity, and Schur harmonic convexity of are discussed.

Cramer–Rao lower bounds for change points in additive and multiplicative noise [PDF]
The paper addresses the problem of determining the Cramer–Rao lower bounds (CRLBs) for noise and change-point parameters, for steplike signals corrupted by multiplicative and/or additive white noise. Closed-form expressions for the signal and noise CRLBs

A scalable distributed observer framework for LiDAR sensor networks is presented for robust tracking and pose estimation of mobile robots. By combining adaptable 3D detection, clustering‐based communication reduction, and intermittent inertial fusion, accurate and efficient estimation is achieved under occlusions and sensing constraints, with formally ...

Vector‐Based SparseGPT: A Vector‐Based Sparsity Method for Large Language Model
Conventional pruning such as SparseGPT produces harmful accumulated errors through step‐by‐step weight editing. V‐SparseGPT prunes and updates target weights simultaneously to curb these errors for N:M structured sparsity. Block‐sparsity and layer‐parallel sparsity greatly boost pruning efficiency.

Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Food inflation pass‐through from agricultural imports in a small open economy
Abstract This paper develops a new framework for quantifying cost pass‐through in a small open economy by estimating firm‐level markup responses to agricultural import price shocks. We show theoretically that markup adjustments depend on firms' reliance on imported inputs and demand curvature, generating heterogeneous inflationary effects across firm ...

S-convexity: the variable radius case [PDF]
We generalize, to the variable radius case, the main results contained in a recent paper of the authors [A new class of sets regularity, J. Convex Analysis 25/4 (2018) 1059--1074], where a new regularity class, called S-convexity, is studied and shown to

Schur-Convexity for a Class of Symmetric Functions and Its Applications [PDF]
For x=(x1,x2,…,xn)∈R+n, the symmetric function ϕn(x,r) is defined by ϕn(x,r)=ϕn(x1,x2,…,xn;r)=∏1≤i1<i2⋯<ir≤n(∑j=1r(xij/(1+xij)))1/r, where r=1,2,…,n and i1 ...

Crop insurance and irrigation behavior: The conditional role of pumping costs
Abstract Excessive water use for irrigation can accelerate the depletion of water resources, undermining agriculture's resilience to weather‐related shocks. Understanding how farmers make water use decisions is essential for developing effective water management policies.

Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.
