Abstract:
Computing the weighted geometric mean of large sparse matrices is an operation that tends to become rapidly intractable, when the size of the matrices involved grows. However, if we are not interested in the computation of the matrix function itself, but just in that of its product times a vector, the problem turns simpler and there is a chance to solve it even when the matrix mean would actually be impossible to compute. Our interest is motivated by the fact that this calculation has some practical applications, related to the preconditioning of some operators arising in domain decomposition

Abstract:
Many earlier expert systems that were modeled after MYCIN, the first expert system, employed truth-value factors for their rule antecedents (premises) and consequents (conclusions). These crisp truth-value factors were usually called certainty factors and attempted to provide a measure of confidence and computational capability to the analysis of rule uncertainty (Shortliffe, 1977; Kandel, 1994). However, in the literature criticism has been often expressed concerning the lack of precision a crisp truth/certainty factor value conveys (Zadeh, 1983; Turban, 1993). Zadeh (1973) and Xingui (1988)

Abstract:
In this paper we prove structure results for the singular sets of stationary harmonic maps and mean curvature flows local to particular singularities. The original work is contained in Chapter 5 and Chapter 8. Chapters 1-5 are concerned with energy minimising maps and stationary harmonic maps. Chapters 6-8 are concerned with mean curvature flows and Brakke flows. In the case of stationary harmonic maps we consider a singularity at which the spine dimension is maximal, and such that the weak tangent map is homotopically non-trivial, and has minimal density amongst singularities of maximal spine

The goal of this study was to find the dependence of myelin water fraction (MWF), the ratio of water in myelin bilayers to the total water component, with the repetition time of the MR sequence TR. Results showed that MWF increased with decreasing TR time. This behavior is believed to be influenced by the exchange of water between the myelin water and the intra/extracellular water

Abstract:
ABSTRACT It may be of no surprise that water quality data is right-skewed, but what appears to be overlooked by some is that the arithmetic mean and standard deviation most often fail as measures of central tendency in skewed data. When using the arithmetic mean and arithmetic standard deviation with nutrient data, one standard deviation about the arithmetic mean can capture nearly all of the data and extend into negative values. Representing nutrient data this way can be misleading to viewers who are using the statistics, and making assumptions, to understand the characteristics of those wate

The highly soluble chlorpheniramine maleate loaded in Pluronic F127 solution coated MCC particles prepared through twin screw extrusion was examined to produce the cubic phase (gel) for the development of controlled release formulation and for coating of very fine particles which cannot be achieved by traditional bead coaters.

Abstract:
Constant mean curvature planes of finite type in Euclidean 3-space are in correspondence with spectral data, consisting of a hyperelliptic (spectral) curve, two meromorphic differentials, and a line bundle. A class of deformations one can consider are known as Whitham or period preserving deformations. Singularities of Whitham deformations can occur if the differentials have common roots on the spectral curve. In this thesis we are concerned with studying deformations within, and out of, the space of spectral data at which the Whitham equations are singular. We show in a special case that sing

Abstract:
La programmation semi-définie est un outil fondamental d'optimisation convexe et polynomiale. Elle revient à optimiser une fonction linéaire sur un spectraèdre (un ensemble défini par des inégalités matricielles linéaires). En particulier, la programmation semi-définie est une généralisation de la programmation linéaire.Nous étudions l'analogue non-archimédien de la programmation semi-définie, en remplaçant le corps des nombres réels par le corps des séries de Puiseux. Notre approche est fondée sur des méthodes issues de la géométrie tropicale et, en particulier, sur l'étude de la tropicalisat

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the study of qualitative properties of solutions of the minimal surface equation and of a class of prescribed mean curvature equations on complete Riemannian manifolds. We derive global gradient bounds for non-negative solutions of such equations on manifolds satisfying a uniform Ricci lower bound and we obtain Liouville-type theorems and other rigidity results on Riemannian manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature. The proof of the aforementioned global gradient bounds for non-negative solutions u is based on the application of the maximum principle to an e
