Abstract:
This paper is a response to two papers. We improve the lengthy proof for the first paper by an elegant verification. For the second paper, we point out the three-sequence approach will result in different convergent rates such that when the other two sequences are converged, the ordering quantity sequence may still not converge to the optimal solution. We construct a novel iterative method to simplify the previous approach proposed by the three-sequence approach for the optimal solution. By the same numerical examples of three published papers, we demonstrate that we can control our findings to converge more accurately than previous results. Moreover, we show that there are three distinct features of our proposed approach. (i) It converges to the desired solution within the preassigned threshold value. (ii) We estimate the convergent ratio. (iii) We find the dominant factors for our proposed convergent sequence.

Abstract:
Almost-convergence of double sequences (subsequences) is equivalent to almost Cauchy condition. If the set of all almost convergent subsequences of a sequence S = Snm is of the second category, then S is convergent in the simple sense. For the sequence S = Snm which almost converges to L, Lebesgue measure of the set of all its subsequences which almost converge to L is either 1 or 0. .

Abstract:
This article introduces a class of discrete iterative algorithms that are provably convergent alternatives to belief propagation (BP) and generalized belief propagation (GBP). Our work builds on recent results by Yedidia, Freeman, and Weiss (2000), who showed that the fixed points of BP and GBP algorithms correspond to extrema of the Bethe and Kikuchi free energies, respectively. We obtain two algorithms by applying CCCP to the Bethe and Kikuchi free energies, respectively (CCCP is a procedure, introduced here, for obtaining discrete iterative algorithms by decomposing a cost function into a concave and a convex part). We implement our CCCP algorithms on two- and three-dimensional spin glasses and compare their results to BP and GBP. Our simulations show that the CCCP algorithms are stable and converge very quickly (the speed of CCCP is similar to that of BP and GBP). Unlike CCCP, BP will often not converge for these problems (GBP usually, but not always, converges). The results found by CCCP applied to the Bethe or Kikuchi free energies are equivalent, or slightly better than, those found by BP or GBP, respectively (when BP and GBP converge). Note that for these, and other problems, BP and GBP give very accurate results (see Yedidia et al., 2000), and failure to converge is their major error mode. Finally, we point out that our algorithms have a large range of inference and learning applications.

Abstract:
When the elements of a stationary ergodic time series have finite variance the sample correlation function converges (with probability 1) to the theoretical correlation function. What happens in the case where the variance is infinite? In certain cases, the sample correlation function converges in probability to a constant, but not always. If within a class of heavy tailed time series the sample correlation functions do not converge to a constant, then more care must be taken in making inferences and in model selection on the basis of sample autocorrelations. We experimented with simulating various heavy tailed stationary sequences in an attempt to understand what causes the sample correlation function to converge or not to converge to a constant. In two new cases, namely the sum of two independent moving averages and a random permutation scheme, we are able to provide theoretical explanations for a random limit of the sample autocorrelation function as the sample grows.

Abstract:
We establish a fundamental connection between smooth and polygonal knot energies, showing that the Minimum Distance Energy for polygons inscribed in a smooth knot converges to the Möbius Energy of the smooth knot as the polygons converge to the smooth knot. For this to work, the polygons must converge in a "nice" way, and the energies must be correctly regularized. We determine an explicit error bound for the convergence.

Abstract:
Beamforming is a core technique in intelligent antenna signal processing and has been receiving a prevalent focus by researchers. Common orthogonal constant modulus algorithm (OCMA) doesn’t guarantee that the weights of different beamformers converge to corresponding signals when the array of receivers takes in signals with same feature. Thereby a weighted orthogonal constant modulus algorithm (WOCMA) is proposed in which weights of different beamformers are ensured to be disparate by controlling their relevance down to a low level, which concludes different weight converges to corresponding signal. Simulation has proved that WOCMA possesses fast convergent speed and favorable facility in receiving signals.

Abstract:
In this paper, we prove that if a Nemytskii operator maps Lp(omega, E) into Lq(omega, F), for p, q greater than 1, E, F separable Banach spaces and F reflexive, then a sequence that converge weakly and a.e. is sent to a weakly convergent sequence. We give a counterexample proving that if q = 1 and p is greater than 1 we may not have weak sequential continuity of such operator. However, we prove that if p = q = 1, then a weakly convergent sequence that converges a.e. is mapped into a weakly convergent sequence by a Nemytskii operator. We show an application of the weak continuity of the Nemytskii operators by solving a nonlinear functional equation on W1,p(omega), providing the weak continuity of some kind of resolvent operator associated to it and getting a regularity result for such solution.

Abstract:
Consider a monotone system with independent alternating renewal processes as component processes, and assume the component uptimes are exponentially distributed. In this paper we study the asymptotic properties of the distribution of the rth downtime of the system, as the failure rates of the components converge to zero. We show that this distribution converges, and the limiting function has a simple form. Thus we have established an easy computable approximation formula for the downtime distribution of the system for highly available systems. We also show that the steady state downtime distribution, i.e. the downtime distribution of a system failure occurring after an infinite run-in period, converges to the same limiting function as the failure rates converge to zero.

Abstract:
This dissertation assesses the role of education quality in the convergence process of GDP per capita through teacher\'s quality impact in human capital formation. The simple two-period OLG model suggests initial level of teacher\'s human capital is important to explain non-convergence, even when education quality return is decreasing. This non-convergence arises because an initially low level of teachers\' human capital translates into a low level of human capital transferred to students, which means a low level of teachers\' human capital in the next period, and so on. This work, therefore, provides an alternative explanation of why countries income does not converge, even when differences in other inputs are not accounted for
Esta dissertação analisa o papel da qualidade da educação no processo de convergência do PIB per capita através do impacto da qualidade de professores na formação de capital humano. O modelo de gerações sobrepostas proposto sugere que o nível inicial de capital humano dos professores é importante para explicar o fenômeno da não-convergência, mesmo quando o retorno marginal da qualidade da educação é decrescente. Esta não-convergência surge porque um baixo nível inicial de capital humano dos professores se traduz em um baixo nível de capital humano transferido aos alunos, o que significa um baixo nível de capital humano dos professores no próximo período, e assim por diante. Este trabalho, portanto, fornece uma explicação alternativa do porquê não se observa convergência de renda entre países, mesmo quando as diferenças de outros fatores de produção não são levadas em conta.

The software development industry has gone through great changes in the last decade. The shift from computer to mobile devices, alongside the popularization of internet of things and wearables have expanded markets and changed the industry. All these factors combined offer many opportunities in innovative new market niches. However, technology-sector projects and startups often fail for a number of reasons that are rarely technical, related instead to market and customer discovery. One of the possible causes is that higher education in software development in the field of Computer Science overlooks business and market aspects, consequently underpreparing students to deal with real-life challenges in software projects. In order to address this situation, a management model meant to guide the development of innovative software products is proposed. This model, named Converge, considers every software project is based on three pillars – technical ability, market and user. To accommodate those three aspects, state of the art methods connected to each pillar were studied extensively and combined. Those methods are Agile development (represented by Scrum and Extreme Programming practices), Lean Startup and Design Thinking. Converge Model’s efficacy in guiding software projects was assessed by implanting the model inside a University mobile experimentation lab that consisted exclusively of undergraduate students. After implantation, there was an assessment of the model’s impact on final products, development process and students’ education, during 10 months. Two case studies were done and are described in this work, explaining the process and listing qualitative results. Finally, to evaluate whether students who took part in the lab changed their perception of software development and developed skills besides technical abilities, a subjective questionnaire was applied and its results examined, depicting Converge Model’s influence on students’ formation and possible educational applications.
A indústria de desenvolvimento de software passou por grandes mudanças na última década. O aumento de fluxo de pessoas para os dispositivos móveis, junto à popularização da internet das coisas e dos dispositivos vestíveis expandiram mercados e mudou a indústria. Todos esses fatores combinados oferecem oportunidades em nichos inovadores de mercado. No entanto, os projetos e startups do setor de tecnologia muitas vezes falham por uma série de razões que raramente são técnicas, relacionadas na realidade ao conhecimento de mercado e do usuário. Uma das possíveis causas para o insucesso é que o ensino superior em desenvolvimento de software na área de Ciência da Computação relega a segundo plano aspectos de mercado, consequentemente fornecendo aos alunos formação insuficiente para lidar com desafios reais dos projetos de software. A fim de abordar esta situação, um modelo de gestão que objetiva guiar o desenvolvimento de produtos inovadores de software é proposto. Este modelo, denominado Converge, considera que todo projeto de software é baseado em três pilares - capacidade técnica, mercado e usuário. Para acomodar esses três aspectos, o estado da arte dos métodos ligados a cada um dos pilares foi investigado extensivamente, permitindo a combinação dos métodos. Esses métodos são o desenvolvimento Ágil (representado por práticas de Scrum e Extreme Programming), Lean Startup e Design Thinking. A eficácia do modelo Converge para orientar projetos de software foi avaliada através da implantação do modelo dentro de um laboratório de experimentação mobile na Universidade, composta exclusivamente por alunos de graduação. Após a implantação do modelo, houve uma avaliação do seu impacto em produtos finais, no processo de desenvolvimento e na formação dos alunos, durante 10 meses. Dois estudos de caso foram feitos e são descritos nesta dissertação, explicando o processo e listando resultados qualitativos. Finalmente, para avaliar se os estudantes que participaram do laboratório mudaram sua percepção acerca de desenvolvimento de software e desenvolveram habilidades além da capacidade técnica, um questionário subjetivo foi aplicado e os resultados analisados, descrevendo a influência do modelo Converge no desenvolvimento dos alunos e possíveis aplicações educacionais.

Abstract:
Teachers’ everyday practices are embedded in school contexts in which their teaching autonomy is constrained by rules, moral obligations, physical settings,and official directives. When a curricular revision mandated that programming was to be a part of mathematics in upper secondary education, teachers’ conditions changed. How teachers adapted to the new curriculum and how they navigated the tensions and contradictions that they encountered is in this thesis analyzed in terms of teachers’ tactics and policy strategies. The overall goal of the investigation is to contribute to a critical understanding of how mathematics teachers integrate programming in their professional practice and how this integration aligns and diverges from the intentions behind the reform. The empirical material is drawn from nine individual interviews with mathematics teachers that were already proficient in programming. The teachers’ unit plans and other lesson materials featuring programming activities served as a trigger point to delve into further reflections upon their own professional practices. To complete the scene, the policy documents were also examined. These included the mathematics curriculum, as well as related official documents and a collection of institutionally sanctioned programming exercises and demonstrations. Two tactical approaches were made apparent when mathematics teachers began to integrate computer programming in their subject: Dual teaching and Interspersed programming. The teacher’s use of dual teaching practices or interspersed programming are tactics shaped by and in response to the conditions of the new curriculum and their own preferences and views on student learning. These two tactics disclose different ontological commitments in relation to the strategies dictated by the curriculum and reflect a cardinal distinction between planning mathematics activities with elements of programming and planning programming activities with elements of mathematics. Of relevance for teachers and curriculum designers is the understanding of (a) how the notion of programming and mathematics as separate subjects oversimplifies teachers’ actual integration practices, and (b) how the curricular choices made by policy can shape the teaching tactics adopted by educators.

Everything That Rises Must Converge is a work for piano and orchestra in one movement. It is structured in three main sections preceded by an introduction, which resembles a traditional three-movement concerto reduced to one movement. Since all of the sections explore a common musical thread, it has a feeling of "stream-ofconsciousness" and free association that suggest genres such as the rhapsody and symphonic tone poem. The thematic motto that begins the piece returns only at points of important formal delineations and is not presented by the piano itself until the work's final moments. The composition also utilizes a foreshadowing technique wherein secondary material in one section is revealed as primary in later sections. The piece is titled after a short story by Flannery O'Connor and reflects its evocative imagery through the frequent use of ascending gestures as well as its final convergence of thematic ideas and musical forces.

Full text
Abstract:
Axons use a conserved program to actively drive their own destruction after injury. Axon degeneration is present in many neurological disorders and an axon death program could be a major pharmaceutical target to preserve neuronal function. This intrinsic signaling cascade activates pro-degenerative dSarm/Sarm1, rapidly depletes axonal stores of NAD+, and terminates in cytoskeletal breakdown. Conversely, loss of dSarm/Sarm1, maintenance of NAD+ levels or its biosynthetic enzyme Nmnat, result in long-term morphological perseveration of severed axons. Exactly how dSarm/Sarm1 and loss of NAD+ execute axon death remains poorly defined. We sought to uncover novel regulators of axon death and maintenance by performing a deficiency screen and a forward genetic mutagenesis screen in axotomized Drosophila wing sensory neurons. We identified a BTB domain protein enriched in neurons, we named Axundead (Axed), which is specifically required for axon death. Severed axons harboring loss of function mutations in axed, similar to dSarm mutants, remain preserved for 50 days post axotomy. Spontaneous neurodegeneration induced by activated dSarm or dNmnat depletion are both suppressed in axed mutants, but not in dSarm mutant alleles. Additionally, severed axed mutant axons also expressing activated dSarm or lacking Nmnat are preserved. These results indicate that dSarm acts upstream of dNmnat loss, and both events precede essential Axed function and axon destruction. Thus, the axon death pathway converges on Axed function.

Abstract:
The convergence of many reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms with linear function approximation has been investigated extensively but most proofs assume that these methods converge to a unique solution. In this paper, we provide a complete characterization of non-uniqueness issues for a large class of reinforcement learning algorithms, simultaneously unifying many counter-examples to convergence in a theoretical framework. We achieve this by proving a new condition on features that can determine whether the convergence assumptions are valid or non-uniqueness holds. We consider a general class of RL methods, which we call natural algorithms, whose solutions are characterized as the fixed point of a projected Bellman equation. Our main result proves that natural algorithms converge to the correct solution if and only if all the value functions in the approximation space satisfy a certain shape. This implies that natural algorithms are, in general, inherently prone to converge to the wrong solution for most feature choices even if the value function can be represented exactly. Given our results, we show that state aggregation-based features are a safe choice for natural algorithms and also provide a condition for finding convergent algorithms under other feature constructions.

Abstract:
Iterative voting is a social choice mechanism that assumes all voters are strategic, and allows voters to change their stated preferences as the vote progresses until an equilibrium is reached (at which point no player wishes to change their vote). Previous research established that this process converges to an equilibrium for the plurality and veto voting methods and for no other scoring rule. We consider iterative voting for non-scoring rules, examining the major ones, and show that none of them converge when assuming (as most research has so far) that voters pursue a best response strategy. We investigate other potential voter strategies, with a more heuristic flavor (since for most of these voting rules, calculating the best response is NP-hard); we show that they also do not converge. We then conduct an empirical analysis of the iterative voting winners for these non-scoring rules, and compare the winner quality of various strategies.

Abstract:
Fictitious play (FP) is one of the most fundamental game-theoretical learning frameworks for computing Nash equilibrium in n-player games, which builds the foundation for modern multi-agent learning algorithms. Although FP has provable convergence guarantees on zero-sum games and potential games, many real-world problems are often a mixture of both and the convergence property of FP has not been fully studied yet. In this paper, we extend the convergence results of FP to the combinations of such games and beyond. Specifically, we derive new conditions for FP to converge by leveraging game decomposition techniques. We further develop a linear relationship unifying cooperation and competition in the sense that these two classes of games are mutually transferable. Finally, we analyse a non-convergent example of FP, the Shapley game, and develop sufficient conditions for FP to converge.

Abstract:
Linear Iterative Learning Control (ILC) algorithms have been known to also perform well for nonlinear systems whose dominant system dynamics are linear. In order for the learning filter to take advantage of more system information, we propose here a model based ILC algorithm which uses an iteration varying learning filter. Before the next iteration’s feedforward control is computed, the linearized system model is first estimated using a least squares approximation. We implement this algorithm on a wafer stage prototype whose dominant system dynamics are linear with a weak nonlinear actuator disturbance. Because the nonlinear disturbance is state dependent, the linear dynamics will shift as the ILC algorithm is converging. We show that as the system converges to the desired trajectory the plant parameter also converge.

Abstract:
Abstract A convex decomposition method, called Alternating Sum of Volumes (ASV), uses convex hulls and set difference operations. ASV decomposition may not converge, which severely limits the domain of geometric objects that can be handled. By combining ASV decomposition and remedial partitioning for the non-convergence, we have proposed a convergent convex decomposition called Alternating Sum of Volumes with Partitioning (ASVP). In this article, we describe how ASVP decomposition is used for recognition of form features. ASVP decomposition can be viewed as a hierarchical volumetric representation of form features. Adjacency and interaction between form features are inherently represented in the decomposition in a hierarchical way. Several methods to enhance the feature information obtained by ASVP decomposition are also discussed.

Abstract:
In its many guises and variations, propositional dynamic logic (PDL) plays an important role in various areas of computer science such as databases, artificial intelligence, and computer linguistics. One relevant and powerful variation is ICPDL, the extension of PDL with intersection and converse. Although ICPDL has several interesting applications, its computational properties have never been investigated. In this paper, we prove that ICPDL is decidable by developing a translation to the monadic second order logic of infinite trees. Our result has applications in information logic, description logic, and epistemic logic. In particular, we solve a long-standing open problem in information logic. Another virtue of our approach is that it provides a decidability proof that is more transparent than existing ones for PDL with intersection (but without converse).

Abstract:
The description logic ALCQI extends the 'standard' description logic ALC by qualifying number restrictions and converse roles. We show that concept satisfiability for this DL is still decidable in polynomial space. The presented algorithm combines techniques from [Tob99] to deal with qualifying number restrictions and from [HST99] to deal with converse roles.
