Cladistics and archaeology

is a method used in biology and paleobiology to establish phylogeny: what produced what and in what order. It is a very specific method, developed in Germany in the 1950s and currently the primary phylogenetic method in the world. has also ...

A Generic Formula and Some Special Cases for the Kullback–Leibler Divergence between Central Multivariate Cauchy Distributions

This paper introduces a closed-form expression for the Kullback–Leibler divergence (KLD) between two central multivariate Cauchy distributions (MCDs) which have been recently used in different signal and image processing applications where ...

A Decision Support Model for Hotel Recommendation Based on the Online Consumer Reviews Using Logarithmic Spherical Hesitant Fuzzy Information

Spherical hesitant fuzzy sets have recently become more popular in various fields. It was proposed as a generalization of picture hesitant fuzzy sets and Pythagorean hesitant fuzzy sets in order to deal with uncertainty and fuzziness inform...

An Image Encryption Transmission Scheme Based on a Polynomial Chaotic Map

Most existing chaotic systems have many drawbacks in engineering applications, such as the discontinuous range of chaotic parameters, weak chaotic properties, uneven chaotic sequence outputs, and dynamic degradation. Therefore, based on the...

Modified Block Homotopy Perturbation Method for solving triangular linear Diophantine fuzzy system of equations

Numerous real-world applications can be solved using the broadly adopted notions of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, Pythagorean fuzzy sets, and q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets. These theories, however, have their own restrictions in terms of members...

Children's Type 1 Diabetes-specific Self-reported Outcomes Scales: Measurement Properties Evaluation Based on COSMIN Guidelines

Background Type 1 diabetes mellitus in children is progressively younger, and there is a lack of quality standardized studies on specific self-reported outcomes scales for pediatric and adolescent patients. Objective To evaluate the measure...

Multi-label Patent Classification Based on Text and Historical Data

Patent classification,which is used to assign multiple international patent classification(IPC) codes to a given paten,is a very important task int the field of patent data mining.In recent years,many studies on this task focus on mining pa...

Why is the screening rate in lung cancer still low? A seven-country analysis of the factors affecting adoption

Strong evidence of lung cancer screening’s effectiveness in mortality reduction, as demonstrated in the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) in the US and the Dutch–Belgian Randomized Lung Cancer Screening Trial (NELSON), has prompted count...

A theory of algorithmic markets

This paper develops a dynamic framework for analyzing markets in which decision-making is increasingly delegated to adaptive algorithms. In contrast to classical approaches that treat equilibrium as the primitive object of analysis, the fra...
