Discovering the Factors Affecting the Location Selection of FDI in China*
Since the late 1970s, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has played an important role in the economic development of China. However, the growth of FDI... -
Cu-Mg-Si (Copper - Magnesium - Silicon)
This document is part of Subvolume A4 'Light Metal Systems. Part 4: Selected Systems from Al-Si-Ti to Ni-Si-Ti' of Volume 11 'Ternary Alloy Systems -... -
Basic Theoretical Concepts
Superconductivity is the phenomenon of dissipationless transport which occurs in many metals at su.ciently low temperatures. Metals in the... -
The Many Faces of a Kohonen Map A Case Study: SOM-based Clustering for On-Line Fraud Behavior Classification
The Self-Organizing Map (SOM) is an excellent tool for exploratory data analysis. It projects the input space on prototypes of a low-dimensional... -
Data Mining and User Profiling for an E-Commerce System
Many companies are now develo** an online internet presence to sell or promote their products and services. The data generated by e-commerce sites... -
Discovery of Fuzzy Multiple-Level Web Browsing Patterns
Web usage mining is the application of data mining techniques to discover usage patterns from web data. It can be used to better understand web usage... -
Comparison Between Five Classifiers for Automatic Scoring of Human Sleep Recordings
The aim of this work is to compare the performances of 5 classifiers (linear and quadratic classifiers, k nearest neighbors, Parzen kernels and... -
A Probabilistic Approach to Mining Fuzzy Frequent Patterns
Deriving association rules is a typical task in data mining. The problem was originally defined for transactions of discrete items, but it was soon... -
Analysis and Architecture of Clinical Workflow Systems using Agent-Oriented Lifecycle Models
Healthcare executives are grappling with a climate of great change in the healthcare industry. This is coming from a number of sources. First, there... -
5. Nonlinear Systems with Autonomous Linear Parts
Denote $\displaystyle \Omega(r) = \{h \in C^n : \vert\vert h \vert\vert \leq... -
11. Input-to-State Stability
Let us consider a system described by the following equation in a Euclidean space C n :... -
Existence of Steady States. Positive and Nontrivial Steady States
Let us consider in C n the nonlinear equation... -
9. Lur’e Type Systems
In the present chapter we investigate the asymptotic stability of the system... -
A Qualitative Approach for Symbolic Data Manipulation Under Uncertainty
In decision making problems, the experts knowledge has different natures: numerical, interval-valued, symbolic, linguistic, . . . In other terms, the... -
4. Stability of Nonlinear Switched and Impulsive Systems
In this chapter, we shall study the stability of nonlinear switched and impulsive systems of the form... -
Noncommutative Line Bundles and Gerbes
We introduce noncommutative line bundles and gerbes within the framework of deformation quantization. The Seiberg-Witten map is used to construct the... -
Secondary Characteristic Classes of Lie Algebroids
We show how the intrinsic characteristic classes of Lie algebroids can be seen as characteristic classes of representations. We present two... -
Local Models for Manifolds with Symplectic Connections of Ricci Type*
We show that any symplectic manifold (Mω) of dimension 2n(n≥ 2) admitting a symplectic connection of Ricci type can locally be constructed by a... -
Set-valued Data
Since fuzzy sets are generalizations of ordinary sets, we present in this Chapter the essentials of random set theory for statistics. This material... -
4 Continuous-time Systems: Tracking Control
In this chapter we treat the problem of H∞ tracking with stochastic multiplicative white noise. We extend the work of [98], which does not involve...
