EEG in neonates: Forward modeling and sensitivity analysis with respect to variations of the conductivity

TL;DR: This study attests that the presence of fontanels in neonates does have an impact on EEG measurements, and a model for the forward problem in EEG source localization is proposed, able to take into account the presence and ossification process offontanels which are characterized by a variable conductivity.

Coupled Modeling of Multiphase Flow and Fault Poromechanics During Geologic CO2 Storage

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a new computational approach to model coupled multiphase flow and geomechanics of faulted reservoirs by modeling faults as surfaces embedded in a three-dimensional medium by using zero-thickness interface elements.

Backward SDE representation for stochastic control problems with nondominated controlled intensity.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce a class of backward stochastic differential equations with jumps and partially constrained diffusive part, for which the minimal solution to their BSDE provides the unique viscosity solution to our fully nonlinear integro-partial differential equation.

Inhomogeneous Hopf–Oleĭnik Lemma and regularity of semiconvex supersolutions via new barriers for the Pucci extremal operators

TL;DR: In this article, Caffarelli, Kohn, Spruck and Nirenberg constructed new barriers for the Pucci extremal operators with unbounded RHS and showed that these barriers can be obtained by a Harnack inequality up to the boundary type estimate.

Approximation of probability density functions via location-scale finite mixtures in Lebesgue spaces

TL;DR: The class of location-scale finite mixtures is of enduring interest both from applied and theoretical perspectives of probability and statistics as mentioned in this paper, and it has been shown that location scale mixtures of a continuous probability density function (PDF) can approximate any continuous PDF, uniformly, on a compact set.
