Experimental investigation of 50 MPa reinforced concrete slabs subjected to blast loading
This paper presents results from blast tests conducted on four 50 MPa concrete slabs with reinforcement ratios of 0,175% and 0,37%. Two of the slabs were retrofitted with 50 mm thick foam in order to investigate the potential of using the foam as a ...

Phylogenetic PCA (p-PCA) is a version of PCA for observations that are leaf nodes of a phylogenetic tree. P-PCA accounts for the fact that such observations are not independent, due to shared evolutionary history. The method works on Euclidean data, but in evolutionary biology there is a need for applying it to data on manifolds, particularly shapes ...

RKF-PCA: Robust kernel fuzzy PCA
Principal component analysis (PCA) is a mathematical method that reduces the dimensionality of the data while retaining most of the variation in the data. Although PCA has been applied in many areas successfully, it suffers from sensitivity to noise and is limited to linear principal components.
