Finite approximations in discrete-time stochastic control quantized models and asymptotic optimality introduction and summary
Saldı, Naci; Linder, T.; Yüksel, S. (Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)Control and optimization of dynamical systems in the presence of stochastic uncertainty is a mature field with a large range of applications. A comprehensive treatment of such problems can be found in excellent books and ... -
Finite element analysis in a cloud computing environment
Muhtaroğlu, Nitel (2019-01-04)In this thesis, the challenges faced and lessons learned while establishing a large-scale high performance cloud computing service that enables online mechanical structural analysis and many other scientific applications ... -
Finite model approximations in decentralized stochastic control
Saldı, Naci; Linder, T.; Yüksel, S. (Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)In this chapter, we study the approximation of static and dynamic team problems using finite models which are obtained through the uniform discretization, on a finite grid, of the observation and action spaces of agents. ... -
Finite-action approximation of Markov decision processes
Saldı, Naci; Linder, T.; Yüksel, S. (Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)In this chapter, we study the finite-action approximation of optimal control policies for discrete-time Markov decision processes (MDPs) with Borel state and action spaces, under discounted and average cost criteria. One ... -
Finite-state approximation of Markov decision processes
Saldı, Naci; Linder, T.; Yüksel, S. (Springer, 2018)In this chapter we study the finite-state approximation problem for computing near optimal policies for discrete-time MDPs with Borel state and action spaces, under discounted and average costs criteria. Even though existence ... -
Finite-state approximations to discounted and average cost constrained Markov decision processes
Saldı, Naci (IEEE, 2019-07)In this paper, we consider the finite-state approximation of a discrete-time constrained Markov decision process (MDP) under the discounted and average cost criteria. Using the linear programming formulation of the constrained ... -
The FIRMER-square contour algorithm
Mitra, Rangeet; Kumar, S. (Springer International Publishing, 2013)The recently proposed Square Contour Algorithm (SCA) provides a good solution to the blind equalization problem as it does not suffer from any type of phase rotation. However, its suitability to Code Division Multiple ... -
Fit among business strategy, strategy formality, and dynamic capability development in new product development
Gumusluoglu, L.; Acur, Nuran (Wiley, 2016-02)Taking new product development (NPD) as the unit of analysis, this study, based on strategic fit approach, investigates the effects of NPD strategy formality and dynamic capabilities (sensing, seizing, and reconfiguring) ... -
Flexible aircraft fleeting and routing at TunisAir
Zeghal, F. M.; Haouari, Mohamed; Sherali, H. D.; Aissaoui, N. (Palgrave Macmillan, 2011-02)This paper addresses a Flexible Aircraft Fleeting and Routing Problem, which is motivated by the Tunisian national carrier TunisAir. A solution to this problem specifies the departure time of each flight, the subset of ... -
Flexible architecture of relay-based wireless network for network lifetime extension with hop-count constraint
Chena, C.-T.; Tekinay, Şirin; Saraydar, C.; Chene, H.-C.; Hsiehf, M.-Y.; Wangg, J.-W. (Informa Group, 2011)In relay-based wireless networks, messages need to be forwarded via intermediate relay mobile terminals (MTs). However, because of various transmission distances and unbalanced traffic load, some relay MTs may tend to drain ... -
Flight-to-quality, economic fundamentals, and stock returns
Kaul, A.; Kayaçetin, Volkan (Elsevier, 2017)We find that the order flow differential (OFD), a flight-to-quality measure constructed as the difference between large- and small-cap stock order flows, strongly and negatively forecasts output growth and interest rates ... -
Flood performance and dislocation assessment for Lumberton homes after Hurricane Matthew
Deniz, Derya; Sutley, E. J.; van de Lindt, J. W.; Peacock, W. G.; Rosenheim, N.; Gu, D.; Mitrani-Reiser, J.; Dillard, M.; Koliou, M.; Hamideh, S. (Seoul National University, 2019-05-26)In order to better understand community resilience following a disaster, a multidisciplinary research team from the Center of Excellence (CoE) for Risk-Based Community Resilience Planning and the National Institute of ... -
Flow and heat transfer study of an impinging piezoelectric fan over a vertical surface
Parsa, Shadi Habibi; Ghaffari, Omidreza; Solovitz, S.; Arık, Mehmet (ASME, 2016)Piezoelectric fans are low-form-factor cooling devices, which have gained recent attention for electronics cooling. These devices feature a vibrating blade, which sheds vortices from its tip during its motion. The performance ... -
Flux melting of metal–organic frameworks
Longley, L.; Collins, S. M.; Li, S. C.; Smales, G. L.; Fındıkçı, İlknur Eruçar; Qiao, A.; Hou, J.; Doherty, C. M.; Thornton, A. W.; Hill, A. J.; Yu, X.; Terrill, N. J.; Smith, A. J.; Cohen, S. M.; Midgley, P. A.; Keen, D. A.; Telfer, S. G.; Bennett, T. D. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-03-28)Recent demonstrations of melting in the metal-organic framework (MOF) family have created interest in the interfacial domain between inorganic glasses and amorphous organic polymers. The chemical and physical behaviour of ... -
Fooled by experience
Soyer, Emre; Hogarth, R. M. (Harvard Business Publishing, 2015-05)We interpret the past—what we’ve experienced and what we’ve been told—to chart a course for the future. It seems like a reasonable approach, but it could be a mistake. The problem is that we view the past through filters ... -
Football stadiums' integration into urban fabric in context of spatial discourse
Bayraktar, İrem (2019-01)Football and society have always been connected, and stadium has become one of the venues for social interaction. Because of the zoning policies, economic constraints and urban transformations, stadiums have been constructed ... -
Force reference extraction via human interaction for a robotic polishing task: Force-induced motion
In this paper, a method to control a manipulator using force-induced trajectory is proposed. The trajectory is learned from an operator doing the polishing task using a tool attached to the robot's end-effector. The learning ... -
Forecasting multivariate time-series data using LSTM and mini-batches
Khodabakhsh, Athar; Arı, İsmail; Bakır, M.; Alagoz, S. M. (Springer, 2020)Multivariate time-series data forecasting is a challenging task due to nonlinear interdependencies in complex industrial systems. It is crucial to model these dependencies automatically using the ability of neural networks ... -
