In the process of wave radar off-shore measurement, many factors have important influence in data collection, such as angle, distance and so on. Water depth is one of these important factors. Also water depth participates in the later inversion algorithm to affect several parameters (wave period, signal-to-noise ratio, etc.) precision. Firstly, according to the dispersion relation, it analyses the effect on those parameters qualitatively. Then the experiment results verify these analyzed results. It proves that in the inversion algorithm, if the water depth used is greater than the actual one, the signal-to-noise ratio increases, and the wave period decreases. On the contrary, the signal-to-noise ratio decreases, and the wave period will increase.

We consider the problem of how to determine the required level of the current provision in order to be able to meet a series of future deterministic payment obligations, in case the provision is invested according to a given random return process. Approximate solutions are derived, taking into account imposed minimum levels of the future random values of the reserve. The paper ends with numerical examples illustrating the presented approximations.

with the rapid development of storage technology, many kinds of storage products and systems have been released, but these products and systems always have some problems such as the performance is not credible, the reliability is not high and so on. In order to better test and evaluate the performance of storage products and systems, we design and implement a distributed Storage Performance Test System called SPTS, which can test the IO performance of file system and disk array. The experience of testing disk array's IOPS and data transfer rate shows that SPTS can provide certain value when customers purchase and use storage products or storage systems.

In order to tackle the problems of current recommendation system, such as lack of domain knowledge and limited applications in e-commerce field, a domain-driven recommendation method based on binary data is proposed in this paper. By introducing the importance of domain knowledge and its application in recommendation, we discuss how to combine domain knowledge with collaborative filtering and apply it on binary purchasing data. Empirical result on supermarket dataset shows that domain-driven recommendation method outperforms other recommendation methods on three common evaluating indicators.

We present a group update algorithm based on truncated trust region strategy for large-scale sparse unconstrained optimization. In large sparse optimization computing the whole Hessian matrix and solving exactly the Newton-like equations at each iteration can be considerably expensive. By the method the elements of the Hessian matrix are updated successively and periodically via groups during iterations and an inaccurate solution to the Newton-like equations is obtained by truncating the inner iteration under certain control rule. Besides, we allow that the current direction exceeds the trust region bound if it is a good descent direction satisfying some descent conditions. Some good convergence properties are kept and we contrast the computational behavior of our method with that of other algorithms. Our numerical tests show that the algorithm is promising and quite effective, and that its performance is comparable to or better than that of other algorithms available.

Traditional road supply models assume full knowledge of the inverse demand function, such that the supply-demand equilibrium point can be easily obtained. However, in practice, it is often difficult to completely characterize the inverse demand function, especially for a congested road. In this paper, we study the traffic volume estimating problem for a congested road with partial information about the inverse demand function, i.e., range or total willing to pay for travel. In particular, we first propose a minimax regret model for minimizing the planner's maximum opportunity cost of not acting optimally, and then obtain some analytical solutions by transforming it into a moment problem equivalently with some simplified assumptions. The model and results in this paper are both instructive and can be extended to investigate more realistic scenarios for practical application.

This paper studies unidirectional pedestrian flow in a channel by using a lattice gas model with parallel update rule. Game theory is introduced to deal with the conflict that several pedestrians intend to move to the same site. A pedestrian is either a co operator (C) or defector (D) when he or she wants to move into the same lattice as other pedestrians. Moreover, he or she could change the strategy (C or D) in the next conflict. The fundamental diagram of pedestrian flow in the channel has been investigated in details, and differences from the model with random sequential update rule have been observed. The co operators fraction is shown to exhibit an interesting non-monotonic dependence on pedestrian density. It is interesting to find that change of co operators fraction alters exponentially before the system comes to steady state. How the parameters p and q in the payoff matrix of game influence mean flow and co operators fraction is also investigated.
