TL;DR: Large-scale mapping of land cover is considered in the paper as a problem of automated processing of big geospatial data, which may contain various uncertainties and three different paradigms are proposed to use, namely, decomposition method, the method of active learning from the scope of intelligent computations, and method of satellite images reconstruction.
Abstract: Large-scale mapping of land cover is considered in the paper as a problem of automated processing of big geospatial data, which may contain various uncertainties. To solve it, we propose to use three different paradigms, namely, decomposition method, the method of active learning from the scope of intelligent computations, and method of satellite images reconstruction. Such an approach allows us to minimize the participation of experts in solving the problem. Within solving the problem of land cover classification we also investigated three different approaches of data fusion. The most efficient data fusion method is one that could be reduced to the problem of classification on the base of time-series images. Developed automated methodology was applied to land cover mapping and classification for the whole territory of Ukraine for 1990, 2000, and 2010 with a 30-meter spatial resolution.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered an optimization problem of packing different solid spheres into containers of the following types: a cuboid, a sphere, a right circular cylinder, an annular cylinder, and a spherical layer.
Abstract: The paper considers an optimization problem of packing different solid spheres into containers of the following types: a cuboid, a sphere, a right circular cylinder, an annular cylinder, and a spherical layer. The radii of spheres are assumed to vary. It allows us to propose a new way to derive starting points belonging to the feasible domain of the problem, as well as to carry out a non-exhaustive search of local extrema, using a modification of the jump algorithm (JA), which implements a continuous transition from one local minimum to another with a better value of the objective function. A reduction of the solution space dimension and rearrangements of sphere pairs allow improving the objective function value. The results obtained are compared with benchmark ones.

TL;DR: The paper solves the problem of modeling an outbreak of the species, which begins with the achievement of a specific nontrivial state of a dynamic system, and simulates the effect of spontaneous transition from weak fluctuations through accelerated reproductive activity to exceeded ecological capacity of the environment followed by the phase of rapid spontaneous decay.
Abstract: The paper solves the problem of modeling an outbreak of the species, which begins with the achievement of a specific nontrivial state of a dynamic system. Population process is divided into a sequence of substantially different stages. The model simulates the effect of spontaneous transition from weak fluctuations through accelerated reproductive activity to exceeded ecological capacity of the environment followed by the phase of rapid spontaneous decay. To describe the transition between final stages of the outbreak, the method of controlled functional realization of metamorphoses of trajectory behavior are used. Differential equations are combined with predicative constructions in software environment. The original computational unit is based on discrete-continuous time and allows us to apply the scenario approach to the consideration of environmental situations. The significance of the results is justified by the analysis of the data about outbreaks of small insect pests that eat on a limited number of suitable plants and, under certain conditions, can get out of control of parasitic wasps.

TL;DR: Methods and algorithms for fast estimation of data distance/similarity measures from formed real-valued vectors of small dimension using random projection and sampling are considered.
Abstract: This survey article considers methods and algorithms for fast estimation of data distance/similarity measures from formed real-valued vectors of small dimension. The methods do not use learning and mainly use random projection and sampling. Initial data are mainly high-dimensional vectors with different measures of distance (Euclidean, Manhattan, statistical, etc.) and similarity (dot product, etc.). Vector representations of non-vector data are also considered. The resultant vectors can also be used in similarity search algorithms, machine learning, etc.

An experimental investigation of the developed criteria was also pursued and its results are provided.

TL;DR: The IFC fuzzy clusterization method is proposed that uses new fuzzy logical operators, namely, threshold triangular norms and conorms, which allows one to develop faster algorithms for constructing clusters.
Abstract: To solve problems of automatic classification, the IFC fuzzy clusterization method is proposed that uses new fuzzy logical operators, namely, threshold triangular norms and conorms. This method differs from clusterization methods based on a fuzzy equivalence relation in that it allows one to develop faster algorithms for constructing clusters. In this case, data on relationships between elements of the set being investigated are not distorted, which provides the transparency of interpretation of the results of investigations. Examples of application of the method to some well-known problems are given.

TL;DR: This paper shows that correlation coefficients obtained from small test samples for biometric data involve considerable uncertainty, and a method for symmetrizing correlation relationships is proposed, which enables many-fold reduction in the requirement on the size of the training sample for an “own” biometric image.
Abstract: This paper shows that correlation coefficients obtained from small test samples for biometric data involve considerable uncertainty. This interferes with using them for machine training (setting) of classical quadratic forms and Bayesian networks. A method for symmetrizing correlation relationships is proposed. The requirement on the volume of biometric data is proved to be reduced considerably in this case. As a consequence, the setting (teaching) of quadratic forms and setting of maximum likelihood Bayesian networks become much more stable problems. This enables many-fold reduction in the requirement on the size of the training sample for an "own" biometric image.

TL;DR: This paper showed that the economies of highly developed countries can not overcome the crisis began in 2008 because their central banks restrain annual inflation less than two percent, which does not allow consumer demand to grow.
Abstract: The author shows that the economies of highly developed countries can not overcome the crisis began in 2008 because their central banks restrain annual inflation less than two percent, which does not allow consumer demand to grow. The intervention of central banks into the crisis by pumping money into the economy and reducing interest rates to zero has led to sharp increase in speculative financial sector due to aggravation of the credit crisis and to monetary deflation in the real sector, which keeps depression

TL;DR: The Markov model of a two-stage queueing network with feedback of three-dimensional Markov chain is proposed, and a hierarchical space merging algorithm is developed to calculate its steady-state probabilities.
Abstract: The Markov model of a two-stage queueing network with feedback is proposed. Poisson flows arrive to both stages from outside. A part of already serviced calls at the first node instantaneously enter the second node (if there is free space here) while the other calls leave the network. After the service is completed at the second node, there are three possibilities: (i) the call leaves the network; (ii) it instantaneously feeds back to the first node (if there is free space here); (iii) it feeds back to the first node after some delay in orbit. All feedbacks are determined by known probabilities. Both nodes have finite capacities. The mathematical model of the investigated network is a three-dimensional Markov chain, and a hierarchical space merging algorithm is developed to calculate its steady-state probabilities. The results of numerical experiments are demonstrated.

Abstract: . The authors analyze the dependence of the uniformity of distribution of signs of empirical autocorrelation function with respect to the number of overlapping symbols of intervals into which a sequence of random numbers is divided.

The technique of its application and its implementation for several well-known generators are presented.

TL;DR: Methods are considered that make it possible to intellectualize technologies of synchronous phasor measurements with the help of representation of registered primary data in the form of T-spectra for performing spectral analysis and computing spectral density as the basis for the formation and accumulation of new knowledge.
Abstract: This article analyzes the current state of scientific investigations in the sphere of intellectualization of electrical networks on the basis of synchronous phasor measurements in a system of registration of primary data. The optimization of electrical energy consumption is shown to be dependent on the informational completeness of primary multidimensional data. Based on differential transformations, mathematical models and methods are proposed to analytically compute a collection of T-discretes for determining the informational completeness of the obtained nondeterministic primary data. Methods are considered that make it possible to intellectualize technologies of synchronous phasor measurements with the help of representation of registered primary data in the form of T-spectra for determining individual harmonic components for each parameter of transient processes in power supply systems and also for performing spectral analysis (based on differential representations) and computing spectral density as the basis for the formation and accumulation of new knowledge.

Abstract: Principles of concretization and development of the noosphere paradigm are formulated as applied to problems of modern scientific research. It is shown that it is precisely the transdisciplinary approach to such investigations and also an efficient cooperation of teams of professionals representing different subject areas that provide the possibility of construction of a scientific picture of the world and a global knowledge network that form the basis of noospheregenesis.
