On new faster fixed point iterative schemes for contraction operators and comparison of their rate of convergence in convex metric spaces6 years agoAbstractIn this paper we present new iterative algorithms in convex metric spaces. We show that these iterative schemes are convergent…
Avenues for the use of cellular automata in image segmentation6 years agoAbstractThe majority of Cellular Automata (CA) described in the literature are binary or three-state. While several abstractions are possible to…
Interval-state cellular automata and their applications to image segmentation6 years agoAbstractWe present a new type of optimization algorithms, adapted for neural network training. These algorithms are based upon sequential operator…
Accurate Chebyshev collocation solutions for the biharmonic eigenproblem on a rectangle6 years agoAbstractWe are concerned with accurate Chebyshev collocation (ChC) solutions to fourth order eigenvalue problems. We consider the 1D case as…
Invariant sets and attractors for Hanusse-type chemical systems with diffusions6 years agoAbstractWe are concerned with Hanusse-type chemical models with diffusions. We show that some bounded invariant sets ⊂R^{N} found for the…
An application of the Picard operator technique to functional integral equations6 years agoAbstract In this paper we consider a functional integral equation of the form \[ x(t)=g(t,x(t),x(h(t)))+\int_{a}^{t} f(s,x(h(s)))ds+\int_{a}^{b} K(s,x(h(s)))ds, \ \ t…
Analysis of a rate-and-state friction problem with viscoelastic materials6 years agoAbstractWe consider a mathematical model which describes the frictional contact between a viscoelastic body and a foundation. The contact is…
All roots spectral methods: Constraints, floating point arithmetic and root exclusion7 years agoAbstract The nonlinear two-point boundary value problem (TPBVP for short) u_{xx}+u^{3}=0,\quad u(0)=u(1)=0, offers several insights into spectral methods. First, it…
