Monotowns: A Quantitative Analysis
Baltic Region, 2016 The authors propose an empirical analysis of the current situation in monotowns. The study questions the perceived seriousness of the ‘monotown problem’ as well as the actual challenges it presents. The authors use a cluster analysis to divide monotowns into groups for further structural comparison. The structural differences in the available databases

Quantitative analysis of saliency models [PDF]
SIGGRAPH ASIA 2016 Technical Briefs, 2016 Previous saliency detection research required the reader to evaluate performance qualitatively, based on renderings of saliency maps on a few shapes. This qualitative approach meant it was unclear which saliency models were better, or how well they compared to human perception. This paper provides a quantitative evaluation framework that addresses this

A Study of the Early Cosmic Dynamics in a Multifield Model of Inflation and Curvature Perturbations
Advances in AstronomyIn this work, we study the cosmological dynamics of the early universe by employing a small field potential in the context of multifield inflation. By investigating analytically the cosmological observables, such as the number of e-folds N, potential ...
