Multiresolution Analysis Adapted to Irregularly Spaced Data
EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2009 This paper investigates the mathematical background of multiresolution analysis in the specific context where the signal is represented by irregularly sampled data at known locations.

Bayesian Analysis for Penalized Spline Regression Using WinBUGS [PDF]
Penalized splines can be viewed as BLUPs in a mixed model framework, which allows the use of mixed model software for smoothing. Thus, software originally developed for Bayesian analysis of mixed models can be used for penalized spline regression ...

Ban Glyphosate—Does It Affect the Swedish Farmers' Willingness to Grow Cover Crops?
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The cultivation of cover crops is one of the new Eco‐scheme practices introduced in Sweden. This study examines how the design of policy attributes of these schemes influences farmers' willingness to grow cover crops on arable land, with particular focus on the potential impact of a glyphosate ban.

Particle filter with spline resampling and global transition model
IET Computer Vision, 2015 The authors introduce the concept of a spline resampling in the particle filter to deal with high accuracy and sample impoverishment. The resampling is usually based on a linear transformation on the weights of the particles, so it affects the filtering ...

Unpacking the Farmland Capitalization Effect of Ethanol Establishment
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We unpack the impact of expansions in ethanol production—as measured by proximity to newly constructed ethanol plants and capacity expansions—on farmland values using land transaction data from Kansas in combination with modern causal inference techniques.

Construction of B-spline surface from cubic B-spline asymptotic quadrilateral
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2017 Asymptote is widely used in astronomy, mechanics, architecture and relevant subjects. In this paper, by analyzing the Frenet frame and the Darboux frame of a curve on the surface, the necessary and sufficient conditions for a quadrilateral boundary being

Crop Insurance Design and On‐Farm Risk Adaptation
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The United States spends billions annually on crop insurance premium subsidies, yet the prevailing distance‐based guarantee design unintentionally rewards risk‐taking by linking subsidies to yield variability. We consider a simple redesign: define guarantees in terms of probability so that coverage reflects a consistent likelihood of indemnity.

Tabu search optimization of forest road alignments combined with shortest paths and cubic splines
Croatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2006 This paper describes a program for optimizing forest road alignments using the Dijkstra shortest path method and a cubic spline function.We previously developed a method for optimizing forest road alignments once a series of intersection points (IPs ...
