Sucker rod pumping diagnosis using valve working position and parameter optimal continuous hidden Markov model

TL;DR: The first novel idea is to extract seven geometric features, which are obtained from dynamometer card using barycentric decomposition algorithm and valve working position, and the second novel idea focuses on the use of continuous hidden Markov model (CHMM) to create classifiers for diagnosing the down-dole operating conditions.

An integrated toolkit for accurate prediction and analysis of cis-regulatory motifs at a genome scale

TL;DR: The comparison results on Escherichia coli K12 genome and the human genome show that BoBro2.0 can identify the statistically significant motifs at a genome scale more efficiently, identify motif instances more accurately and get more reliable motif clusters than MEME.

Faster Maximum Likelihood Estimation Algorithms for Markovian Arrival Processes

TL;DR: The first improvement is to enhance the computation speed of Ryd\'en's EM algorithm for estimating MAP parameters and the second is to provide an efficient sub-class of MAPs to be appropriate for fitting to real traffic data.

Speech recognition: Statistical methods

TL;DR: This article focuses on two important statistical methods, one based primarily on a hidden Markov model formulation that has gained widespread acceptance as the dominant technique in characterizing the variation in the acoustic signal representing speech, and one related to the use of statistics for characterizing word co-occurrences.

Combinatorial and algorithmic aspects of hyperbolic polynomials

TL;DR: This paper discovered rather unexpected and very likely far-reaching connections between hyperbolic polynomials and many classical combinatorial and algorithmic problems.

An inequality with applications to statistical estimation for probabilistic functions of Markov processes and to a model for ecology

TL;DR: In this paper, a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients homogeneous of degree d in its variables is shown to be polynomially homogeneous unless 3(3(x))>P(x), where 3(x)=x.

The Gamma Function

TL;DR: The Gamma function as discussed by the authors is a generalized factorial function that can be used to estimate the probability distribution of a probability distribution, and it has been used in many applications, e.g., as part of probability distributions.
