Minimum-correction second-moment matching : theory, algorithms and applications
… We highlight the geometric intuition behind the theory and study the problem's rich connections to minimum congruence transform, generalized polar decomposition, optimal transport, and rank-deficient data assimilation. In the special case of P̃ = I, minimum-correction second-moment matching …

Harvesting energy from non-ideal vibrations
… This methodology includes a broad-band impedance matching theory and a power electronics architecture to implement that theory. The generalized impedance matching theory extends the well known single frequency impedance matching model to a multi-frequency impedance matching model. By connecting LC …

Matching faces to expectations : the impact of political and business domain differences in gendered expectations on preferred appearance for leaders
… in the literature by proposing an expectation-matching theory. I propose that, although both domains of politics and business are associated with masculine characteristics, contexts within the political domain are associated with fewer masculine characteristics than contexts within the business …

Seeking the Support That We Want: Goal Matching in Social Support Outcomes and Supporter Selection
… social support is most effective. Optimal matching theory posits that a match between type and amount of support provided yields the best support outcomes. One hundred and twenty undergraduate students completed an intake survey about their potential support network and 12 daily surveys …

Algorithms for Vertex-Weighted Matching in Graphs
<p>A matching M in a graph is a subset of edges such that no two edges in M are incident on the same vertex. Matching is a fundamental combinatorial problem that has applications in many contexts: high-performance computing, bioinformatics, network switch design, web technologies, etc. Examples in …

Bilateral exchanges in social networks and the design of public institutions
… this thesis, I focus on exclusive exchanges or matching in bipartite networks where the matched couples perform an economic exchange with each other. This thesis makes three contributions to matching theory. First, I relax the standard assumptions of costless transfers between matched couples …

APPLYING MATCHING EQUATION TO PITCH SELECTION IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL
This study applied the generalized matching equation (GME) to pitch selection in MLB during the 2016 regular season. The GME was used to evaluate the pitch selection of 21 groups of pitchers as well as 144 individual pitchers. The GME described pitch selection well for four of the 21 pitching …

Essays on real life allocation problems
In the first chapter, we introduce a new matching model to mimic inter-college tuition exchange programs for dependents of faculty to attend other colleges tuition-free. Each participating college has to avoid being a net-exporter of students. Programs use decentralized markets making it difficult …

Factors Affecting Probability Matching Behavior
… suboptimal behavior - in particular, probability matching - is frequently observed in research on repeated decisions. Probability matching is the tendency to match prediction probabilities of each outcome with the observed outcome probabilities in a random binary prediction task. For example, when …
