Thus, our aim was to develop a simple, cheap and precise method based on a digital CCD camera to measure ... the CQSTI and the resazurin / resorufin standard curve showed a strong linear association, ...

Abstract: A Schwarz-Christoffel (SC) mapping-based method is presented for accurately and efficiently predicting the thrust force of permanent magnet linear motors (PMLMs). It accounts for not only ...

Making hummus at home can be easy but getting it right might be a challenge. Hummus is a popular item to have as a snack with crisps, carrot sticks, celery or even falafel. Those making the item ...

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new pivot rule of the simplex algorithm. The simplex algorithm first presented by George B. Dantzig, is a widely used method for solving a linear ...

Unlike the original method and its some variants, we need not to compute the inverse of the basic matrix at each iteration, or to solve the linear systems with the basic matrix. In fact, to compute ...

Abstract: In this paper, we propose a policy gradient reinforcement learning method which directly estimates the gradient of the state value function (V-function) with respect to a feedback ...
