A linearized difference scheme for semilinear parabolic equations with nonlinear absorbing boundary conditions by Sun, Zhi-zhong, Wu, Xiaonan, Zhang, Jiwei, Wang, Desheng

“…The solution of this problem will blow up in finite time. Hence this difference scheme is coupled with an adaptive time step size, i.e., when the solution tends to infinity, the time step size will be smaller and smaller. …”

Estimation by polynomial splines with variable selection in additive Cox models by Zhang, Shangli, Wang, Lichun, Lian, Heng

“…In this article, we consider penalized variable selection in additive Cox models based on (group) smoothly clipped absolute deviation penalty and hence widen the scope of applicability of penalized variable selection to semiparametric models for censored data.We demonstrate the asymptotic consistency in model selection and convergence rate in estimation. …”

No culture left behind: ArtELingo-28, a benchmark of WikiArt with captions in 28 languages by Mohamed, Y, Li, R, Ahmad, IS, Haydarov, K, Torr, P, Church, KW, Elhoseiny, M

“…However we believe there should be more multilinguality. Hence, we present ArtELingo-28, a vision-language benchmark that spans 28 languages and encompasses approximately 200,000 annotations (140 annotations per image). …”

Quiver gauge theories: beyond reflexivity by Bao, J, Colverd, GB, He, Y

“…Unlike reflexive polytopes, one can have two fans from the two interior points, and hence give rise to two smooth varieties after complete resolutions, leading to an interesting pair of closely related geometries and gauge theories.…”

A brief on Saudi Arabia’s Energy Efficiency Program (SEEP) by Bin Salman Al-Saud, A

“…Whereas the vast majority of countries have managed to lower the energy intensity of their economies, the Kingdom’s energy intensity increased significantly over the last two decades. Hence, it is a strategic imperative for the Kingdom that energy efficiency becomes a major topic for all decisions related to an increase in demand for fuel and feedstock.…”

Partnerships with principles: putting relationships at the heart of public contracts for better social outcomes by Ball, N, Gibson, M

“…There is increasing recognition that relationships are important to improving the delivery of public services and hence social outcomes. Practitioners have observed that a ‘transactional’ approach to contracting may not always be appropriate. …”

Geometric grouping of repeated elements within images by Schaffalitzky, F, Zisserman, A

“…<br> It is shown that the repeating element can be learnt from the image, and hence provides an image descriptor. Also, information on the plane pose, such as its vanishing line, can be recovered from the grouping.…”

Parameterization of nice polynomials by Anton, Hozjee

“…Meanwhile, the roots and critical points for symmetric polynomials with seven roots are studied in the field of Q(px). Hence, parameterized families of symmetric polynomials with seven roots are found.…”

Actuator disk methods for tidal turbine arrays by Hunter, W

“…However, it does not follow that rotors designed using unblocked wind turbine tools are capable of extracting any more power than they are designed for and hence the power uplift made available through blockage effects may be squandered.…”

Probabilistic prediction of solar PV power output by Ang, Sherman Jun Xiong

“…The main reason was that a proper forecasting method to control the variability and uncertainty of the power output was not in place. Hence, probabilistic prediction of the solar PV power output is essential and crucial task for power generation. …”
