We present an algorithm to estimate the parameters of a linear model in the presence of heteroscedastic noise, i.e., each data point having a different covariance matrix. The algor...
The first goal of this paper is to empirically explore the relationships between existing object-oriented coupling, cohesion, and inheritance measures and the probability of fault...
Despite the recognition of cellular automata (CA) as a exible and powerful tool for urban growth simulation, the calibration of CA had been largely heuristic until recent eVorts to...
PageRank is one of the principle criteria according to which Google ranks Web pages. PageRank can be interpreted as a frequency of Web page visits by a random surfer and thus it r...
tion, structural dissolutionAbstract We constructed a simple evolutionary system, "evoloop," on a deterministic nine-state five-neighbor cellular automata (CA) space by i...
