As a result, the computational cost can be significantly decreased in comparison to such methods. We rigorously define a randomized operator splitting scheme in an abstract setting and provide an error analysis where we prove that the temporal convergence order of the scheme is at least 1/2. We illustrate the theory by numerical experiments on both linear and quasilinear diffusion problems, using a randomized domain decomposition approach.

To solve such scattering problems we make what appears to be the first application of the boundary element method (BEM) where each BEM basis function is supported in a fractal set, and the integration involved in the formation of the BEM matrix is with respect to a non-integer order Hausdorff measure rather than the usual (Lebesgue) surface measure. Using recent results on function spaces on fractals, we prove convergence of the Galerkin formulation of this “Hausdorff BEM” for acoustic scattering in <span>(mathbb {R}^{n+1})</span> (<span>(n=1,2)</span>) when the scatterer, assumed to be a compact subset of <span>(mathbb {R}^ntimes {0})</span>, is a <i>d</i>-set for some <span>(din (n-1,n])</span>, so that, in particular, the scatterer has Hausdorff dimension <i>d</i>. For a class of fractals that are attractors of iterated function systems, we prove convergence rates for the Hausdorff BEM and superconvergence for smooth antilinear functionals, under certain natural regularity assumptions on the solution of the underlying boundary integral equation. We also propose numerical quadrature routines for the implementation of our Hausdorff BEM, along with a fully discrete convergence analysis, via numerical (Hausdorff measure) integration estimates and inverse estimates on fractals, estimating the discrete condition numbers.

These neural networks were invented for time or single parameter-varying matrix problems around 2001 in China and almost all of their advances have been made in and most still come from its birthplace. Zhang Neural Network methods have become a backbone for solving discretized sensor driven time-varying matrix problems in real-time, in theory and in on-chip applications for robots, in control theory and other engineering applications in China. They have become the method of choice for many time-varying matrix problems that benefit from or require efficient, accurate and predictive real-time computations. A typical discretized Zhang Neural Network algorithm needs seven distinct steps in its initial set-up. The construction of discretized Zhang Neural Network algorithms starts from a model equation with its associated error equation and the stipulation that the error function decrease exponentially fast. The error function differential equation is then mated with a convergent look-ahead finite difference formula to create a distinctly new multi-step style solver that predicts the future state of the system reliably from current and earlier state and solution data. Matlab codes of discretized Zhang Neural Network algorithms for time varying matrix problems typically consist of one linear equations solve and one recursion of already available data per time step. This makes discretized Zhang Neural network based algorithms highly competitive with ordinary differential equation initial value analytic continuation methods for function given data that are designed to work adaptively. Discretized Zhang Neural Network methods have different characteristics and applicabilities than multi-step ordinary differential equations (ODEs) initial value solvers. These new time-varying matrix methods can solve matrix-given problems from sensor data with constant sampling gaps or from functional equations. To illustrate the adaptability of discretized Zhang Neural Networks and further the understanding of this method, this paper details the seven step set-up process for Zhang Neural Networks and twelve separate time-varying matrix models. It supplies new codes for seven of these. Open problems are mentioned as well as detailed references to recent work on discretized Zhang Neural Networks and time-varying matrix computations. Comparisons are given to standard non-predictive multi-step methods that use initial value problems ODE solvers and analytic continuation methods.</p>","PeriodicalId":49733,"journal":{"name":"Numerische Mathematik","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139919250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many techniques have been proposed in the last decades which allow decomposing multi-component signals into simple oscillatory mono-components, like the groundbreaking Empirical Mode Decomposition technique and the Iterative Filtering method. When a signal contains mono-components that have rapid varying instantaneous frequencies like chirps or whistles, it becomes particularly hard for most techniques to properly factor out these components. The Adaptive Local Iterative Filtering technique has recently gained interest in many applied fields of research for being able to deal with non-stationary signals presenting amplitude and frequency modulation. In this work, we address the open question of how to guarantee a priori convergence of this technique, and propose two new algorithms. The first method, called Stable Adaptive Local Iterative Filtering, is a stabilized version of the Adaptive Local Iterative Filtering that we prove to be always convergent. The stability, however, comes at the cost of higher complexity in the calculations. The second technique, called Resampled Iterative Filtering, is a new generalization of the Iterative Filtering method. We prove that Resampled Iterative Filtering is guaranteed to converge a priori for any kind of signal. Furthermore, we show that in the discrete setting its calculations can be drastically accelerated by leveraging on the mathematical properties of the matrices involved. Finally, we present some artificial and real-life examples to show the power and performance of the proposed methods.Kindly check and confirm that the Article note is correctly identified.</p>","PeriodicalId":49733,"journal":{"name":"Numerische Mathematik","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139589056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
