© 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Disk shape frequently appears as a reference in shape characterization applications. We propose a local measure of deviation from a disk as the local difference between numerical solution of a PDE on the shape and an analytical expression in the form of modified Bessel function. The deviation defined at each shape point defines a field over the shape. This field has useful properties, which we demonstrate via illustrative applications ranging from shape decomposition to shape characterization. Furthermore, we show that a global measure extracted from the field is capable of characterizing the body roundness and periphery thickness uniformity.

Continuous dimensionality characterization of image structures
Felsberg, Michael; Kalkan, Sinan; Kruger, Norbert (Elsevier BV, 2009-05-04)
Intrinsic dimensionality is a concept introduced by statistics and later used in image processing to measure the dimensionality of a data set. In this paper, we introduce a continuous representation of the intrinsic dimension of an image patch in terms of its local spectrum or, equivalently, its gradient field. By making use of a cone structure and barycentric co-ordinates, we can associate three confidences to the three different ideal cases of intrinsic dimensions corresponding to homogeneous image patche...
Bayesian semiparametric models for nonignorable missing mechanisms in generalized linear models
Kalaylıoğlu Akyıldız, Zeynep Işıl (Informa UK Limited, 2013-08-01)
Semiparametric models provide a more flexible form for modeling the relationship between the response and the explanatory variables. On the other hand in the literature of modeling for the missing variables, canonical form of the probability of the variable being missing (p) is modeled taking a fully parametric approach. Here we consider a regression spline based semiparametric approach to model the missingness mechanism of nonignorably missing covariates. In this model the relationship between the suitable...
Regression analysis with a dtochastic design variable
Sazak, HS; Tiku, ML; İslam, Muhammed Qamarul (Wiley, 2006-04-01)
In regression models, the design variable has primarily been treated as a nonstochastic variable. In numerous situations, however, the design variable is stochastic. The estimation and hypothesis testing problems in such situations are considered. Real life examples are given.
Viscoelastic behavior of stock indices
Gündüz, Güngör; Guenduez, Yalin (Elsevier BV, 2010-12-15)
The scattering diagram of a stock index results in a complex network structure, which can be used to analyze the viscoelastic properties of the index. The change along x-or y-direction of the diagram corresponds to purely elastic (or spring like) movement whereas the diagonal change at an angle of 45 degrees corresponds to purely viscous (or dashpot like) movement. The viscous component pushes the price from its current value to any other value, while the elastic component acts like a restoring force. Four ...
Analysis of Model Variance for Ensemble Based Turbulence Modeling
Jiang, Nan; Kaya Merdan, Songül; Layton, William (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2015-04-01)
This report develops an ensemble or statistical eddy viscosity model. The model is parameterized by an ensemble of solutions of an ensemble-Leray regularization. The combined approach of ensemble time stepping and ensemble eddy viscosity modeling allows direct parametrization of the turbulent viscosity co-efficient. We prove unconditional stability and that the model's solution approaches statistical equilibrium as t -> infinity; the model's variance converges to zero as t -> infinity. The ensemble method i...
