TL;DR: In this paper, a variable selection procedure for function-on-function linear models with multiple functional predictors, using the functional principal component analysis (FPCA)-based estimation method with the group smoothly clipped absolute deviation regularization, is introduced.
Abstract: We introduce a variable selection procedure for function-on-function linear models with multiple functional predictors, using the functional principal component analysis (FPCA)-based estimation method with the group smoothly clipped absolute deviation regularization. This approach enables us to select significant functional predictors and estimate the bivariate functional coefficients simultaneously. A datadriven procedure is provided for choosing the tuning parameters of the proposed method to achieve high efficiency. We construct FPCA-based estimators for the bivariate functional coefficients using the proposed regularization method. Under some mild conditions, we establish the estimation and selection consistencies of the proposed procedure. Simulation studies are carried out to illustrate the finite-sample performance of the proposed method. The results show that our method is highly effective in identifying the relevant functional predictors and in estimating the bivariate functional coefficients. Furthermore, the proposed method is demonstrated in a real-data example by investigating the association between ocean temperature and several water variables.

TL;DR: In this article, a data-driven wavelet thresholding scheme that automatically adapts to the unknown regularity of the function is proposed, allowing for efficient estimation of functions exhibiting nonuniform regularity at different locations and scales.
Abstract: We consider the regression problem of estimating functions on $ \mathbb{R}^D $ but supported on a $ d $-dimensional manifold $ \mathcal{M} ~~\subset \mathbb{R}^D $ with $ d \ll D $. Drawing ideas from multi-resolution analysis and nonlinear approximation, we construct low-dimensional coordinates on $ \mathcal{M} $ at multiple scales, and perform multiscale regression by local polynomial fitting. We propose a data-driven wavelet thresholding scheme that automatically adapts to the unknown regularity of the function, allowing for efficient estimation of functions exhibiting nonuniform regularity at different locations and scales. We analyze the generalization error of our method by proving finite sample bounds in high probability on rich classes of priors. Our estimator attains optimal learning rates (up to logarithmic factors) as if the function was defined on a known Euclidean domain of dimension $ d $, instead of an unknown manifold embedded in $ \mathbb{R}^D $. The implemented algorithm has quasilinear complexity in the sample size, with constants linear in $ D $ and exponential in $ d $. Our work therefore establishes a new framework for regression on low-dimensional sets embedded in high dimensions, with fast implementation and strong theoretical guarantees.

TL;DR: In this article, the analysis of local fractional calculus is considered for the first time and the uniqueness of the solutions of the local fractionals differential and integral equations and the local fractionsal inequalities are considered in detail.
Abstract: In this chapter, the recent results for the analysis of local fractional calculus are considered for the first time. The local fractional derivative (LFD) and the local fractional integral (LFI) in the fractional (real and complex) sets, the series and transforms involving the Mittag-Leffler function defined on Cantor sets are introduced and reviewed. The uniqueness of the solutions of the local fractional differential and integral equations and the local fractional inequalities are considered in detail. The local fractional vector calculus is applied to describe the Rice theory in fractal fracture mechanics.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new algorithm of inertial form for solving split generalized equilibrium problem (SGEP) and fixed point problem of multivalued nonexpansive mappings in real Hilbert spaces is introduced.
Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a new algorithm of inertial form for solving Split Generalized Equilibrium Problem (SGEP) and Fixed Point Problem (FPP) of multivalued nonexpansive mappings in real Hilbert spaces. Motivated by the viscosity-type method, we incorporate the inertial technique to accelerate the convergence of the proposed method. Here, the viscosity term is a function of the inertial extrapolation sequence and some assumptions on the bifunctions are dispensed with. Under standard and mild assumption of monotonicity and upper hemicontinuity of the SGEP associated mappings, we establish the strong convergence of the scheme which also solves a Variational Inequality Problem (VIP). A numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness and performance of our method as well as comparing it with a related method and conventional inertial-viscosity-type algorithm in the literature.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that approximate (in some sense) eigenvalues of some linear operators, acting in some function spaces, must be eigen values while approximate eigenvectors are close to eigen vectors with the same eigenvalue.
Abstract: We prove and discuss several fixed point results for nonlinear operators, acting on some classes of functions with values in a b-metric space. Thus we generalize and extend a recent theorem of Dung and Hang (J Math Anal Appl 462:131–147, 2018), motivated by several outcomes in Ulam type stability. As a simple consequence we obtain, in particular, that approximate (in some sense) eigenvalues of some linear operators, acting in some function spaces, must be eigenvalues while approximate eigenvectors are close to eigenvectors with the same eigenvalue. Our results also provide some natural generalizations and extensions of the classical Banach Contraction Principle.

TL;DR: In this paper, a symmetric loss function (De-groot and NLINEX) is used to find the reliability function based on four types of informative prior three double priors and one single prior.
Abstract: This work deals with Kumaraswamy distribution. Maximum likelihood, Bayes and expansion methods of estimation are used to estimate the reliability function. A symmetric Loss function (De-groot and NLINEX) are used to find the reliability function based on four types of informative prior three double priors and one single prior. In addition expansion methods (Bernstein polynomials and Power function) are applied to find reliability function numerically. Simulation research is conducted for the comparison of the effectiveness of the proposed estimators. Matlab (2015) will be used to obtain the numerical results.
