Abstract:
Diverse forms of nonlinearity within stochastic equations give rise to varying dynamics in processes, which may influence the behavior of extreme values. This study focuses on two nonlinear models of the discrete Langevin equation: one with a fixed diffusion function (M1) and the other with a fixed marginal distribution (M2), both characterized by a nonlinearity parameter. Extremes are defined according to the run theory with thresholds based on percentiles. The behavior of inter-extreme times and run lengths is examined by employing Fisher’s Information Measure and the Shannon Entropy. Our fi

The complexity measure for the distribution in space-time of a finite-velocity diffusion process is calculated.

In the framework of hyperbolic diffusion, the non-local Fisher’s information with the x-parameter is related to the local Fisher’s information with the t-parameter.

A good description of the qcc report can thus be obtained; in particular, a clear insight into the role that the uncertainty principle (UP) plays in the pertinent proceedings is presented.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has changed digestive endoscopy services around the world. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to measure the number of urgent/emergency endoscopic procedures performed in a Brazilian hospital, comparing it to the same period in the previous year, and to identify risk factors in COVID-19 patients undergoing endoscopic procedures for upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB). METHODS: This was a retrospective, cross-sectional, observational, single-center study. The study evaluated urgent/emergency endoscopic procedures performed on adult patients from March to A

Promote knowledge of the diversity of Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae from Caquetá, Colombia. Methodology: Coprophagous beetles were collected using 50 Pitfall traps baited with human feces separated from each other by 10 meters. Each trap was active for 72 continuous hours. Species were classified according to the trophic guilds and three size categories. Sampling effort was explored using an accumulation curve, meanwhile, Hill numb

Integrating commercial and research surveys to estimate the harvestable biomass, and establish a quota, for an “unexploited” abalone population. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 65: 1122–1130. A key challenge facing many fisheries managers is the absence of information on the level of harvestable biomass. We describe an integrated, two-stage survey approach that was used to measure the spatial distribution and harvestable biomass of a largely unexploited metapopulation of greenlip abalone (Haliotis laevigata) over a larg

Abstract:
Quantum synchronization has emerged as a crucial phenomenon in quantum nonlinear dynamics with potential applications in quantum information processing. Multiple measures for quantifying quantum synchronization exist. However, there is currently no widely agreed metric that is universally adopted. In this paper, we propose using classical and quantum Fisher information (FI) as alternative metrics to detect and measure quantum synchronization. We establish the connection between FI and quantum synchronization, demonstrating that both classical and quantum FI can be deployed as more general indi

Abstract:
Information on the catch composition and catchable size of lobsters in Lebak waters remains limited, posing challenges for effective fisheries management. This study aims to assess the technical performance of the lobster fishery and analyse catch composition. Data on technical performance were collected through interviews with fishers and lobster collectors using random sampling, while a census approach was applied to measure carapace length and weight for 589 lobsters. A descriptive quantitative analysis was conducted to evaluate the length-weight relationship of lobsters. The findings indic

Abstract:
In southern Benin, the rapid growth of demographics and the need for fishery products have forced public managers to adopt various management measures in the face of anti-ecological methods used by fishers; however, these strategies are often formulated independent from the context. These measures have not remained without consequence on the daily lives of fishers. This paper examines factors influencing fishers’ individual perceived wellbeing satisfaction using the social-ecological system framework.

Abstract:
In this work, we define cumulative residual q-Fisher (CRQF) information measures for the survival function (SF) of the underlying random variables as well as for the model parameter. We also propose q-hazard rate (QHR) function via q-logarithmic function as a new extension of hazard rate function. We show that CRQF information measure can be expressed in terms of the QHR function. We define further generalized cumulative residual χ2 divergence measures between two SFs. We then examine the cumulative residual q-Fisher information for two well-known mixture models, and the corresponding results
