Geomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources, 2023 AbstractClustering analysis is fundamental for determining dominant discontinuity properties in rock engineering. Orientation has commonly been considered the only factor when performing clustering, which ignores the contributions of other discontinuity properties to the deformations and strengths of rock masses. This study proposes an improved netting

Diagnostics, 2023 In this study, we develop an innovative method that assists computer-aided diagnosis in the determination process of the exact location of the femoral neck junction in plain radiographs. Our algorithm consists of two phases, i.e., coarse prediction and fine matching, which are implemented by supervised deep learning method and unsupervised clustering ...

The Network of Counterparty Risk: Analysing Correlations in OTC Derivatives [PDF]
, 2015 Counterparty risk denotes the risk that a party defaults in a bilateral contract. This risk not only depends on the two parties involved, but also on the risk from various other contracts each of these parties holds.

Net Electricity Clustering at Different Temporal Resolutions Using a SAX-Based Method for Integrated Distribution System Planning [PDF]
IEEE Access, 2019 This paper addresses a major utility and regulator concern of characterizing customer net electricity consumption profiles to realize integrated distribution system planning. This is pivotal in assessing the capability of the power system to accommodate net load variability and its impacts on the grid such as voltage rise, narrowing peak demand ...

A New Adaptive Elastic Net Method for Cluster Analysis
International Journal of Computers Communications & Control, 2017 Clustering is inherently a highly challenging research problem. The elastic net algorithm is designed to solve the traveling salesman problem initially, now is verified to be an efficient tool for data clustering in n-dimensional space. In this paper, by introducing a nearest neighbor learning method and a local search preferred strategy, we proposed a

The end of the waterfall: Default resources of central counterparties [PDF]
, 2015 Central counterparties (CCPs) have become pillars of the new global financial architecture following the financial crisis of 2008. The key role of CCPs in mitigating counterparty risk and contagion has in turn cast them as systemically important ...
