In this article, we aim to design a distributed approximate algorithm for seeking Nash equilibria (NE) of an aggregative game. Due to the local set constraints of each player, projection-based algorithms have been widely employed for solving such problems actually. Since it may be quite hard to get the exact projection in practice, we utilize inscribed polyhedrons to approximate local set constraints, which yields a related approximate game model.

However, the low light use efficiency (LUE) and difficulty in preparation caused by the etching process restrict the development of its application. Here, an idea of "doped metasurfaces" based on a spatial and regular doping of semiconductor thin films is proposed for the first time.

Let [Formula: see text] be a sub-fractional Brownian motion with Hurst index [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give a local law of the iterated logarithm of the form [Formula: see text] almost surely, for all [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. As an application, we introduce the [Formula: see text]-variation of [Formula: see text] driven by [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text].

Cliques are local structures in complex networks being complete subgraphs, which can be used to accelerate classical gossip algorithms. Based on cyclic permutations, clique gossiping leads to collective multi-party qubit interactions.

Given a static logical network, partition-based solutions are investigated. Easily verifiable necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained, and the corresponding formulas are presented to provide all types of the partition-based solutions. Then, the results are extended to mix-valued logical networks.

The observation of the formation, propagation and dispersion of network traffic congestion can lead to insights about the network performance, the bottleneck dynamics etc. While many researchers use the traffic flow data to reconstruct the congestion profile, the data missing problem is bypassed.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFUrban road congestions change both temporally and spatially. They are essentially caused by network bottlenecks. Therefore, understanding bottleneck dynamics is critical in the goal of reasonably allocating transportation resources.

Scooter riders may suffer severe brain injuries in possible vehicle crash accidents not only from contact with a windshield or bonnet but also from secondary contact with the ground. In this paper, virtual vehicle-ESS crash scenarios combined with finite element (FE) car models and multi-body scooter/human models are set up.

Similar to pedestrians and bicyclists, scooter riders are vulnerable road users and are expected to receive severe injuries during traffic accidents. In this research, a MADYMO model of vehicle-scooter crash scenarios is numerically set up.

For instance, the dataset can be obtained from the diagnosis of describing the diffusion process of cancer cells. With the observed datasets, several methods to construct the dynamic models for such Boolean networks are proposed.

First, it surveys the authors' recent work on the topic: Using semitensor product of matrices and the matrix expression of logic, the logical dynamic equations of Boolean (control) networks can be converted into standard discrete-time dynamics. To use the state-space approach, the state space and its subspaces of a Boolean network have been carefully defined.
