React based web-application for stock price forecasting with a novel stacking algorithm by Mittal, Madhav

“…The model performances are compared against a threshold performance of the “Last Value” algorithm. The “Last Value” algorithm is a naïve algorithm that assumes zero volatility in the data and thus sets all forecasts to be the value of the last observation. …”

Oxford-IIIT TRECVID 2010 – notebook paper by Juneja, M, Chandra, S, Parkhi, OM, Jawahar, CV, Vedaldi, A, Marszalek, M, Zisserman, A

“…Instead, annotations were carried out internally for all the ten features to control quality and keyframe extraction, and to obtain region-of-interest annotations to train the object detectors. Compared to last year, the image-level classifier was significantly faster due to the use of a fast dense SIFT feature extractor and of an explicit feature map to approximate the χ² kernel SVM. …”

An analytical model to predict spalling and breaching of concrete plates under contact detonation by Tu, Huan, Fung, Tat Ching, Tan, Kang Hai, Riedel, Werner

“…As a fast and physics-based alternative, an analytical model is proposed in Tu et al.’s work [1], to quantitively predict compressive damage forming on the impacted face. …”

Using shock tube species time-histories in Bayesian parameter estimation: Effective independent-data number and target selection by Chen, Huaibo, Ji, Weiqi, Cassady, Séan J, Ferris, Alison M, Hanson, Ronald K, Deng, Sili

“…The influence of target selection is investigated by comparing LastP and C-1. LastP outperformed C-1 slightly, which can be attributed to the fact that larger discrepancies observed between experimental data and model predictions of the last point can increase the weights of likelihood functions. …”
