The understanding of geographical reality is a process of data representation and pattern discovery. Former studies mainly adopted continuous-field models to represent spatial variables and to investigate the underlying spatial continuity/heterogeneity in the regular spatial domain. In this article, we introduce a more…

Although technical trading rules have been widely used by practitioners in financial markets, their profitability still remains controversial. We here investigate the profitability of moving average (MA) and trading range break (TRB) rules by using the Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index (SHCI) from May 21, 1992 th…

An analysis is made of reality conditions within the context of noncommutative geometry. We show that if a covariant derivative satisfies a given left Leibniz rule then a right Leibniz rule is equivalent to the reality condition. We show also that the matrix which determines the reality condition must satisfy the Yang-…

Physical systems are modelled and investigated within simulation software in an increasing range of applications. In reality an investigation of the system is often performed by empirical test scenarios which are related to typical situations. Our aim is to derive a method which generates diverse test scenarios each re…

We construct a local action of the group of rational maps from $S^2$ to $GL(n,C)$ on local solutions of flows of the ZS-AKNS $sl(n,C)$-hierarchy. We show that the actions of simple elements (linear fractional transformations) give local Bäcklund transformations, and we derive a permutability formula from different fact…

We give a definition of an integer-valued function $\sum_i α_i x ^*_i$ derived from arrow diagrams for the ambient isotopy classes of oriented spherical curves. Then, we introduce certain elements of the free $\mathbb{Z}$-module generated by the arrow diagrams with at most $l$ arrows, called relators of Type~($\check{…

Virtual reality (VR) offers immersive visualization and intuitive interaction. We leverage VR to enable any biomedical professional to deploy a deep learning (DL) model for image classification. While DL models can be powerful tools for data analysis, they are also challenging to understand and develop. To make deep le…

We introduce an evolutionary game with feedback between perception and reality, which we call the reality game. It is a game of chance in which the probabilities for different objective outcomes (e.g., heads or tails in a coin toss) depend on the amount wagered on those outcomes. By varying the `reality map', which rel…

The statistical description and modeling of volatility plays a prominent role in econometrics, risk management and finance. GARCH and stochastic volatility models have been extensively studied and are routinely fitted to market data, albeit providing a phenomenological description only. In contrast, the field of econop…

Statistical model checking for PCTL on MDPs using reinforcement learning.

We find generators for the full rational loop group of GL(n,C) as well as for the subgroup consisting of loops that satisfy the reality condition with respect to the noncompact real form GL(n,R). We calculate the dressing action of some of those generators on the positive loop group, and apply this to the ZS-AKNS flows…

Research aims to make fact-checking models more transparent.

We study capital process behavior in the fair-coin game and biased-coin games in the framework of the game-theoretic probability of Shafer and Vovk (2001). We show that if Skeptic uses a Bayesian strategy with a beta prior, the capital process is lucidly expressed in terms of the past average of Reality's moves. From t…

VR game data for P300 BCI with raccoon vs demon stimuli.

Virtual reality brings non-Euclidean geometry to life.

Models necessarily capture only parts of a reality. Prediction models aim at capturing a future reality. In this paper we address the question of how the future is constructed (or: imagined) in an investment context where market participants form expectations on the returns of a risky investment. We observe that the pa…

Building and expanding on principles of statistics, machine learning, and scientific inquiry, we propose the predictability, computability, and stability (PCS) framework for veridical data science. Our framework, comprised of both a workflow and documentation, aims to provide responsible, reliable, reproducible, and tr…

Background: Virtual reality simulators and machine learning have the potential to augment understanding, assessment and training of psychomotor performance in neurosurgery residents. Objective: This study outlines the first application of machine learning to distinguish "skilled" and "novice" psychomotor performance du…

Social networks are getting closer to our real physical world. People share the exact location and time of their check-ins and are influenced by their friends. Modeling the spatio-temporal behavior of users in social networks is of great importance for predicting the future behavior of users, controlling the users' mov…

We describe the infinitesimal moduli space of pairs $(Y, V)$ where $Y$ is a manifold with $G_2$ holonomy, and $V$ is a vector bundle on $Y$ with an instanton connection. These structures arise in connection to the moduli space of heterotic string compactifications on compact and non-compact seven dimensional spaces, e.…

By the SYZ construction, a mirror pair $(X,\check{X})$ of a complex torus $X$ and a mirror partner $\check{X}$ of the complex torus $X$ is described as the special Lagrangian torus fibrations $X \rightarrow B$ and $\check{X} \rightarrow B$ on the same base space $B$. Then, by the SYZ transform, we can construct a simpl…

We prove the following result announced in Todorov and Valov: Any homogeneous, metric $ANR$-continuum is a $V^n_G$-continuum provided $\dim_GX=n\geq 1$ and $\check{H}^n(X;G)\neq 0$, where $G$ is a principal ideal domain. This implies that any homogeneous $n$-dimensional metric $ANR$-continuum with $\check{H}^n(X;G)\neq…

We specify a result of Yokoi \cite{yo} by proving that if $G$ is an abelian group and $X$ is a homogeneous metric $ANR$ compactum with $\dim_GX=n$ and $\check{H}^n(X;G)\neq 0$, then $X$ is an $(n,G)$-bubble. This implies that any such space $X$ has the following properties: $\check{H}^{n-1}(A;G)\neq 0$ for every closed…

This note presents an elementary proof of Hilbert's 1891 Ansatz of nesting for $M$-sextics, along the line of Riemann's Nachlass 1857 and a simple Harnack-style argument (1876). Our proof seems to have escaped the attention of Hilbert (and all subsequent workers) [but alas turned out to contain a severe gap, cf. Introd…

Next point-of-interest (POI) recommendation aims to offer suggestions on which POI to visit next, given a user's POI visit history. This problem has a wide application in the tourism industry, and it is gaining an increasing interest as more POI check-in data become available. The problem is often modeled as a sequenti…

We study the Yamabe invariants of cylindrical manifolds and compact orbifolds with a finite number of singularities, by means of conformal geometry and the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer $L^2$-index theory. For an $n$-orbifold $M$ with singularities $Σ_Γ = \{(\check{p}_1, Γ_1), ..., (\check{p}_s, Γ_s)\}$ (where each group $Γ_j<O…

For an immersed Lagrangian submanifold, let $\check{A}$ be the Lagrangian trace-free second fundamental form. In this note we consider the equation $\nabla^*T=0$ on Lagrangian surfaces immersed in $\mathbb{C}^2$, where $T=-2\nabla^*(\check{A}\lrcornerω)$, and we prove a gap theorem for the Whitney sphere as a solution …
