Several Issues Concerning the Corruption Crimes of Private Entrepreneurs: Based on Empirical Research
Studies have shown that top leaders and department heads of privately-owned enterprises differ significantly in the types of corruption crimes and the links where crimes are committed. Therefore, corruption crimes of private entrepreneurs should be countered with the methods well targeted at the subjects of crime. In addition, penalties do not fit crimes by the conviction and penalty imposition for corruption crimes, which seriously undermine the effect of criminal penalties on crime prevention. Therefore, the sentencing range should be elaborated and other measures should be taken so that crimes and penalties will be balanced
Numerical Solutions of Optimal Risk Control and Dividend Optimization Policies under A Generalized Singular Control Formulation
This paper develops numerical methods for finding optimal dividend pay-out
and reinsurance policies. A generalized singular control formulation of surplus
and discounted payoff function are introduced, where the surplus is modeled by
a regime-switching process subject to both regular and singular controls. To
approximate the value function and optimal controls, Markov chain approximation
techniques are used to construct a discrete-time controlled Markov chain with
two components. The proofs of the convergence of the approximation sequence to
the surplus process and the value function are given. Examples of proportional
and excess-of-loss reinsurance are presented to illustrate the applicability of
the numerical methods.Comment: Key words: Singular control, dividend policy, Markov chain

Realistic Full-Body Tracking from Sparse Observations via Joint-Level Modeling
To bridge the physical and virtual worlds for rapidly developed VR/AR
applications, the ability to realistically drive 3D full-body avatars is of
great significance. Although real-time body tracking with only the head-mounted
displays (HMDs) and hand controllers is heavily under-constrained, a carefully
designed end-to-end neural network is of great potential to solve the problem
by learning from large-scale motion data. To this end, we propose a two-stage
framework that can obtain accurate and smooth full-body motions with the three
tracking signals of head and hands only. Our framework explicitly models the
joint-level features in the first stage and utilizes them as spatiotemporal
tokens for alternating spatial and temporal transformer blocks to capture
joint-level correlations in the second stage. Furthermore, we design a set of
loss terms to constrain the task of a high degree of freedom, such that we can
exploit the potential of our joint-level modeling. With extensive experiments
on the AMASS motion dataset and real-captured data, we validate the
effectiveness of our designs and show our proposed method can achieve more
accurate and smooth motion compared to existing approaches.Comment: Accepted to ICCV 2023. Project page:
