  • Publisher: Springer

These proceedings from the 37th International Workshop on Bayesian Inference and Maximum Entropy Methods in Science and Engineering (MaxEnt 2017), held in São Carlos, Brazil, aim to expand the available research on Bayesian methods and promote their application in the scientific community. They gather research from scholars in many different fields who use inductive statistics methods and focus on the foundations of the Bayesian paradigm, their comparison to objectivistic or frequentist statistics counterparts, and their appropriate applications. Interest in the foundations of inductive statistics has been growing with the increasing availability of Bayesian methodological alternatives, and...

Figurennetzwerke im mittelhochdeutschen Artusroman

In diesem Buch werden Figuren und Figurenkonstellationen in einem Korpus mittelhochdeutscher Artusromane mit computergestützten Methoden, insbesondere der Sozialen Netzwerkanalyse, untersucht. Die Analysen konzentrieren sich auf Hartmanns von Aue ‚Erec‘ und ‚Iwein‘ sowie auf Wolframs von Eschenbach ‚Parzival‘, und knüpfen an Fragestellungen zur Figurenkonzeption und Handlungsstruktur an. Die Arbeit verbindet digitale Prozesse der Datenerhebung und -auswertung mit literaturwissenschaftlichen Analysegegenständen und Fragestellungen. Dabei liegt ein besonderer Fokus auf der reflektierten Methodenentwicklung und der kritischen Evaluation der eingesetzten Verfahren.

This Proceedings book presents papers from the 39th International Workshop on Bayesian Inference and Maximum Entropy Methods in Science and Engineering, MaxEnt 2019. The workshop took place at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Garching near Munich, Germany, from 30 June to 5 July 2019, and invited contributions on all aspects of probabilistic inference, including novel techniques, applications, and work that sheds new light on the foundations of inference. Addressed are inverse and uncertainty quantification (UQ) and problems arising from a large variety of applications, such as earth science, astrophysics, material and plasma science, imaging in geophysics and medicine, nondestructive testing, density estimation, remote sensing, Gaussian process (GP) regression, optimal experimental design, data assimilation, and data mining.

Electronic and Algorithmic Trading Technology

Electronic and algorithmic trading has become part of a mainstream response to buy-side traders' need to move large blocks of shares with minimum market impact in today's complex institutional trading environment. This book illustrates an overview of key providers in the marketplace. With electronic trading platforms becoming increasingly sophisticated, more cost effective measures handling larger order flow is becoming a reality. The higher reliance on electronic trading has had profound implications for vendors and users of information and trading products. Broker dealers providing solutions through their products are facing changes in their business models such as: relationships with sell...

Rethinking Power Sector Reform in the Developing World

During the 1990s, a new paradigm for power sector reform was put forward emphasizing the restructuring of utilities, the creation of regulators, the participation of the private sector, and the establishment of competitive power markets. Twenty-five years later, only a handful of developing countries have fully implemented these Washington Consensus policies. Across the developing world, reforms were adopted rather selectively, resulting in a hybrid model, in which elements of market orientation coexist with continued state dominance of the sector.This book aims to revisit and refresh thinking on power sector reform approaches for developing countries. The approach relies heavily on evidence...
