In order to improve the scientificity of sports action analysis, this paper constructs a sports action analysis model based on machine learning based on the greedy algorithm and the bat algorithm. According to the structural characteristics of the model, the structure of the model is reflected in the form of face…

'Francisco Calderón'] The purpose of this paper is to propose a new algorithm based on stochastic expectation maximization (SEM) to deal with the problem of unobserved values when multiple interactions in a linear mixed-effects model (LMEM) are present. We test the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm with the…

Background Mixtures of beta distributions are a flexible tool for modeling data with values on the unit interval, such as methylation levels. However, maximum likelihood parameter estimation with beta distributions suffers from problems because of singularities in the log-likelihood function if some observations take…

A load-sharing system is defined as a parallel system whose load will be redistributed to its surviving components as each of the components fails in the system. Our focus is on making statistical inference of the parameters associated with the lifetime distribution of each component in the system. In this paper, we…

Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are one of the most widely used statistical methods for analyzing sequence data. However, the reporting of output from HMMs has largely been restricted to the presentation of the most-probable (MAP) hidden state sequence, found via the Viterbi algorithm, or the sequence of most probable…

Expectation maximization (EM) is a technique for estimating maximum-likelihood parameters of a latent variable model given observed data by alternating between taking expectations of sufficient statistics, and maximizing the expected log likelihood. For situations where sufficient statistics are intractable, stochastic…

Fluorescence microscopy is of vital importance for understanding biological function. However, most fluorescence experiments are only qualitative inasmuch as the absolute number of fluorescent particles can often not be determined. Additionally, conventional approaches to measuring fluorescence intensity cannot…

Solving optimization problems, especially for nonlinear and constrained systems, is a challenge. Decades of specialized algorithms have been developed for general and special cases of root finding, minimization (including constraints), for parameter estimation, and mapping connected spaces. These approaches typically…

We propose a generic, modular framework to optimize the placement of continuous monitoring sensors on oil and gas sites aiming to maximize the methane emissions detection efficiency. Our proposed framework substantially expands the problem scale compared to previous related studies and can be adapted for different…

Recently, we have introduced the use of techniques drawn from Bayesian statistics to recover kinetic and thermodynamic parameters from voltammetric data, and were able to show that the technique of large amplitude ac voltammetry yielded significantly more accurate parameter values than the equivalent dc approach. In…

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) coupled with distribution of relaxation times (DRT) analysis is a robust framework for characterizing electrochemical systems. However, DRT deconvolution is often plagued by spurious peaks, hindering accurate process identification and quantitative parameter estimation. To…

The variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) algorithm can simulate the chemical systems such as molecules in the noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices and shows promising applications in quantum chemistry simulations. The accuracy and computational cost of the VQE simulations are determined by the underlying Ansätze.…

Machine olfaction—the artificial replication of the sense of smell—faces significant challenges due to the absence of large, standardized training datasets. Unlike vision, language, and audio models, which benefit from extensive corpora such as ImageNet, GLUE, and AudioSet, olfaction lacks scaled equivalents and…
