Tight Guarantees for Static Threshold Policies in the Prophet Secretary Problem [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
In the prophet secretary problem, $n$ values are drawn independently from known distributions, and presented in a uniformly random order. A decision-maker must accept or reject each value when it is presented, and may accept at most $k$ values in total. The objective is to maximize the expected sum of accepted values.

Predicting Relative Thresholds for Object Oriented Metrics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Object-oriented software metrics provide a numerical characterization of software quality. They have also been used in the assessment and identification of technical debt. However, metrics generally need to be used with thresholds as reference points that help to interpret their values properly and objectively. The problem is that, while there are many

Feature-Adaptive Interactive Thresholding of Large 3D Volumes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Thresholding is the most widely used segmentation method in volumetric image processing, and its pointwise nature makes it attractive for the fast handling of large three-dimensional samples. However, global thresholds often do not properly extract components in the presence of artifacts, measurement noise or grayscale value fluctuations.

One-Bit Covariance Reconstruction with Non-zero Thresholds: Algorithm and Performance Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Covariance matrix reconstruction is a topic of great significance in the field of one-bit signal processing and has numerous practical applications. Despite its importance, the conventional arcsine law with zero threshold is incapable of recovering the diagonal elements of the covariance matrix.

Comparison of automatic and visual methods used for image segmentation in Endodontics: a microCT study

open access: yesJournal of Applied Oral Science
To calculate root canal volume and surface area in microCT images, an image segmentation by selecting threshold values is required, which can be determined by visual or automatic methods. Visual determination is influenced by the operator's visual acuity,

Another look at threshold phenomena for random cones [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
In stochastic geometry there are several instances of threshold phenomena in high dimensions: the behavior of a limit of some expectation changes abruptly when some parameter passes through a critical value. This note continues the investigation of the expected face numbers of polyhedral random cones, when the dimension of the ambient space increases ...

Study on Angular Free Vibration Stability and Parameters Influence of Dry Gas Seal Based on the Characteristic Equation

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2022
Based on Laplace transform and Hurwitz stability criterion, the system characteristic equation and algebraic stability criterion of the two degree-of-freedom angular free vibration of dry gas seal are derived. The effects of rotational inertia, stiffness

Ablation of LRP6 in alpha‐smooth muscle actin‐expressing cells abrogates lung inflammation and fibrosis upon bleomycin‐induced lung injury

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.

Sojourn Times and the Fragility Index [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate the sojourn time above a high threshold of a continuous stochastic process Y on [0,1]. It turns out that the limit, as the threshold increases, of the expected sojourn time given that it is positive, exists if the copula process corresponding to Y is in the functional domain of attraction of of an extreme value process.

GEOCHEMICAL DISTRIBUTION AND THRESHOLD VALUES DETERMINATION OF HEAVY METALS IN STREAM WATER IN THE SUB-BASINS OF VERMELHO AND SORORÓ RIVERS, ITACAIÚNAS RIVER WATERSHED, EASTERN AMAZON, BRAZIL

open access: yesGeochimica Brasiliensis, 2018
Geochemical survey in the Vermelho (VSB) and Sororó (SSB) sub-basins of the Itacaiúnas basin in southeastern Amazonian region has shown that the physical-chemical parameters of stream water do not display accentuated variations between the rainy and dry ...
