Exact analytical solution of tempered fractional heat-like (diffusion) equations by the modified variational iteration method [PDF]
This paper introduces a modified version of the Variational Iteration Method, incorporating $\mathbb{P}$-transformation. We propose a novel semi-analytical technique named the modified variational iteration method for addressing fractional ...

Different Groups of Variational Principles for Whitham-Broer-Kaup Equations in Shallow Water [PDF]
Because the variational theory is the theoretical basis for many kinds of analytical or numerical methods, it is an essential but difficult task to seek explicit functional formulations whose extrema are sought by the nonlinear and complex models. By the

An Application of He's Variational Iteration Method for Solving Duffing - Van Der Pol Equation [PDF]
In this paper, we apply He's variational iteration method (VIM) and the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) to approximate the solution of Duffing-Van Der Pol equation (DVP).

Performance comparison between maximum likelihood estimation and variational method for estimating simple linear regression parameter [PDF]
Variational estimation method is a deterministic approximation technique which involves Bayesian framework while giving a point estimate instead of the usual Bayesian interval estimation. The linear regression model, which has always been a popular model,

A field theoretic approach to master equations and a variational method beyond the Poisson ansatz
We develop a variational scheme in a field theoretic approach to a stochastic process. While various stochastic processes can be expressed using master equations, in general it is difficult to solve the master equations exactly, and it is also hard to ...

Long-Run Accuracy of Variational Integrators in the Stochastic Context [PDF]
This paper presents a Lie-Trotter splitting for inertial Langevin equations (Geometric Langevin Algorithm) and analyzes its long-time statistical properties. The splitting is defined as a composition of a variational integrator with an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck

Black Box Variational Inference [PDF]
Variational inference has become a widely used method to approximate posteriors in complex latent variables models. However, deriving a variational inference algorithm generally requires significant model-specific analysis, and these efforts can hinder ...

Stochastic Variational Approach to Minimum Uncertainty States [PDF]
We introduce a new variational characterization of Gaussian diffusion processes as minimum uncertainty states. We then define a variational method constrained by kinematics of diffusions and Schr\"{o}dinger dynamics to seek states of local minimum ...
