Parameter estimation in nonlinear time-varying systems through Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models and wavelets

In this paper, a parameter estimation problem for a Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy dynamic system is formulated under the assumption that the premises in the membership functions are known. A linear expression in consequent parameters is obtained under this assumption. If the system is time-varying, the parameters can be determined by recursive estimation techniques. As an alternate approach, the use of multi-resolution wavelets is proposed. Furthermore, a parameter estimation toolbox for fuzzy dynamic models is developed which is then applied to a simple example and to the Mackey-Glass chaotic time series.Sociedad Argentina de Informática e Investigación Operativ

La auditoría fiscal y su incidencia en la recaudación tributaria de la región Junín en los años 2015 a 2019

Hoy en día la Superintendencia Nacional de Aduanas y de Administración Tributaria – SUNAT tiene como principal objetivo lograr una adecuada recaudación tributaria que sirva al estado para cumplir sus fines presupuestarios; por lo que le fue otorgada, entre otras, la facultad de fiscalización, facultad que es ejercida de forma discrecional con el fin de verificar que los contribuyentes cumplan adecuadamente con sus obligaciones formales y sustanciales, así mismo determinar que paguen el impuesto que corresponda. El presente trabajo de investigación tiene como objetivo establecer cuál es la incidencia de la ejecución de las fiscalizaciones realizadas por SUNAT en la recaudación lograda en la región Junín durante los años 2015 al 2019. Por lo que el presente trabajo de investigación es de tipo aplicado, de diseño no experimental longitudinal de alcance correlacional, asimismo se aplicó el método científico de enfoque cuantitativo. Se ha recabado información de la página web de SUNAT respecto a la recaudación que se obtuvo en la región Junín durante los años 2015 a 2019, asimismo se solicitó a tal entidad la información respecto a la cantidad de procedimientos de fiscalización (parciales y definitivas) que inició la Intendencia Regional Junín durante los años mencionados, a fin de establecer la correlación que existe entre tales acciones con la recaudación fiscal. Finalmente se concluye que los procedimientos de fiscalización (parciales y definitivas) que inició la Intendencia Regional Junín durante los años 2015 a 2019 tuvieron una correlación positiva, confirmándose tal incidencia con la contrastación de las hipótesis, estableciendo conclusiones y recomendaciones en virtud de tal resultado

Model based predictive control of a rougher flotation circuit considering grade estimation in intermediate cells

Effective control of rougher flotation is important because a small increase in recovery results in a significant economic benefit. Although many flotation control strategies have been proposed and implemented over the years, none of them incorporate concentrate grade measurements at intermediate cells because these data are not usually available. On the other hand, there is much research on characterizing concentrate froth on the cell surface by image processing in order to extract information on froth color, bubble size, and speed that can then be used for developing expert control strategies, and some works have shown the possibility of estimating the concentrate grade. This work presents two multivariable model based predictive control (MPC) strategies for a rougher circuit. The first strategy is based only on general tailings and concentrate grade measurements while the second one includes, beside these data, the intermediate cell grade estimates. Both strategies are compared with a fixed control strategy. Simulation tests show that the recovery can increase by 1.7%, compared to the fixed control strategy

Differential cross section measurements for the production of a W boson in association with jets in proton–proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV

Measurements are reported of differential cross sections for the production of a W boson, which decays into a muon and a neutrino, in association with jets, as a function of several variables, including the transverse momenta (pT) and pseudorapidities of the four leading jets, the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta (HT), and the difference in azimuthal angle between the directions of each jet and the muon. The data sample of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV was collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb[superscript −1]. The measured cross sections are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo generators, MadGraph + pythia and sherpa, and to next-to-leading-order calculations from BlackHat + sherpa. The differential cross sections are found to be in agreement with the predictions, apart from the pT distributions of the leading jets at high pT values, the distributions of the HT at high-HT and low jet multiplicity, and the distribution of the difference in azimuthal angle between the leading jet and the muon at low values.United States.

Optimasi Portofolio Resiko Menggunakan Model Markowitz MVO Dikaitkan dengan Keterbatasan Manusia dalam Memprediksi Masa Depan dalam Perspektif Al-Qur`an

Risk portfolio on modern finance has become increasingly technical, requiring the use of sophisticated mathematical tools in both research and practice. Since companies cannot insure themselves completely against risk, as human incompetence in predicting the future precisely that written in Al-Quran surah Luqman verse 34, they have to manage it to yield an optimal portfolio. The objective here is to minimize the variance among all portfolios, or alternatively, to maximize expected return among all portfolios that has at least a certain expected return. Furthermore, this study focuses on optimizing risk portfolio so called Markowitz MVO (Mean-Variance Optimization). Some theoretical frameworks for analysis are arithmetic mean, geometric mean, variance, covariance, linear programming, and quadratic programming. Moreover, finding a minimum variance portfolio produces a convex quadratic programming, that is minimizing the objective function ðð¥with constraintsð ð 𥠥 ðandð´ð¥ = ð. The outcome of this research is the solution of optimal risk portofolio in some investments that could be finished smoothly using MATLAB R2007b software together with its graphic analysis

Juxtaposing BTE and ATE – on the role of the European insurance industry in funding civil litigation

One of the ways in which legal services are financed, and indeed shaped, is through private insurance arrangement. Two contrasting types of legal expenses insurance contracts (LEI) seem to dominate in Europe: before the event (BTE) and after the event (ATE) legal expenses insurance. Notwithstanding institutional differences between different legal systems, BTE and ATE insurance arrangements may be instrumental if government policy is geared towards strengthening a market-oriented system of financing access to justice for individuals and business. At the same time, emphasizing the role of a private industry as a keeper of the gates to justice raises issues of accountability and transparency, not readily reconcilable with demands of competition. Moreover, multiple actors (clients, lawyers, courts, insurers) are involved, causing behavioural dynamics which are not easily predicted or influenced. Against this background, this paper looks into BTE and ATE arrangements by analysing the particularities of BTE and ATE arrangements currently available in some European jurisdictions and by painting a picture of their respective markets and legal contexts. This allows for some reflection on the performance of BTE and ATE providers as both financiers and keepers. Two issues emerge from the analysis that are worthy of some further reflection. Firstly, there is the problematic long-term sustainability of some ATE products. Secondly, the challenges faced by policymakers that would like to nudge consumers into voluntarily taking out BTE LEI

Search for stop and higgsino production using diphoton Higgs boson decays

Results are presented of a search for a "natural" supersymmetry scenario with gauge mediated symmetry breaking. It is assumed that only the supersymmetric partners of the top-quark (stop) and the Higgs boson (higgsino) are accessible. Events are examined in which there are two photons forming a Higgs boson candidate, and at least two b-quark jets. In 19.7 inverse femtobarns of proton-proton collision data at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV, recorded in the CMS experiment, no evidence of a signal is found and lower limits at the 95% confidence level are set, excluding the stop mass below 360 to 410 GeV, depending on the higgsino mass
