Coastal communities from Baja California to Hawaii face sharply elevated storm risks this summer after federal forecasters assigned a 70% probability that the eastern Pacific hurricane season will ...

Abstract: Pantograph arc has become a potential hazard for the safe running of electric locomotives. It is essential to build an accurate mathematical model of pantograph arc for arc simulation.

Can you chip in? As an independent nonprofit, the Internet Archive is fighting for universal access to quality information. We build and maintain all our own systems, but we don’t charge for access, ...

If a new pathogen causes a large epidemic, then it might “burn out” before causing a second epidemic. The burnout probability can be estimated from large numbers of computationally intensive ...

Reliable earthquake recurrence probability assessment is crucial for seismic hazard mitigation but remains challenging due to sparse paleoseismic data on individual faults. We present an enhanced ...

Where \(X\) is a normally distributed random variable with mean \(\mu\) and standard deviation \(\sigma\). The peak of the curve occurs at \(x=\mu\), and the spread ...

The course provides a precise and accurate treatment of probability, distribution theory and statistical inference. As such there will be a strong emphasis on mathematical statistics as important ...

The proposed method estimates the per-pixel surface normal probability distribution, from which the expected angular error can be inferred to quantify the aleatoric ...

Abstract: The wrapped normal distribution arises when the density of a one-dimensional normal distribution is wrapped around the circle infinitely many times. At first look, evaluation of its ...
