Curve Sketching
This paper serves as an extension of Eigencurves for Two-Parameter Sturm-Liouville Equations by Binding and Volkmer. Facts about specific sequences of eigenvalues of linear equations developed in Bases and Comparison Results for Linear Elliptic Eigenproblems by Auchmuty are used in order to …

Sex Curve
In Sex Curve, a quirky cast of characters goes to war with oxytosin, the hormone which makes a woman fall in love with the person she sleeps with. Brilliant biochemist, Marissa, puts love to the ultimate test in this biting satire.

Correlation of the distribution curve with the dispersion curve of cellulose nitrate
The dielectric-dispersion, curve of cellulose nitrate may be obtained over a 1ow frequency range in h-butyl acetate. The parallel resistance method is used for capacitance measurements is a nickel cell. Comparison of the distribution curve and the dispersion curve above a distinct similarity …

Visual-inertial curve SLAM
… mapping (SLAM) algorithm that uses B\'{e}zier curves as static landmark primitives rather than feature points. Our approach allows us to estimate the full 6-DOF pose of a robot while providing a sparse structured map which can be used to assist a robot in motion planning and control. We …

Estimating yield curve noise
… methods for estimating noise in the yield curve. I evaluate optimization methods for fitting yield curves using the Nelson-Siegel model where recommendations in the literature remain unclear. I provide open source code on Github including contributions to the QuantLib C++ financial library.

Shape curve analysis using curvature
… according to the bending of important shape curves. This method can naturally provide a technique for investigating facial shape. When considering a child's face there are a number of curves which outline the important features of the face. Describing these feature curves gives a large amount …

Modelling stochastic multi-curve basis
… crisis, the market has shifted towards a multi-curve approach in modelling the prevailing interest rate environment. Currently, there is a reliance on the assumption of deterministic- or constant-basis spreads. This assumption is too simplistic to describe the modern multi-curve environment and …

Wetting Phenomena Near the Melting Curve
A study of the location of the hard sphere crystal-fluid phase transition and equilibrium wetting states for systems in contact with various hard substrates was undertaken using Monte Carlo (MC) and molecular dynamics (MD) techniques. Through the use of MD the phase transition was found to occur at …

Growth Curve Analysis of Soybean Cultivars
To study the methodology for functional growth analysis of soybean and to find out the growth characteristics of soybean cultivars, two experiments were conducted at the Agronomy Plant Pathology South farm of the University of Illinois during the years 1985 and 1986.

Curve sampling and geometric conditional simulation
… ratio (SNR) or ill-posedness. We create a curve sampling algorithm using the Metropolis-Hastings Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) framework. With this method, samples from a target distribution [pi] (which can be evaluated but not sampled from directly) are generated by creating a Markov …

Size curve optimization for replenishment products
… a size level forecast through the use of a size curve. This method of forecasting and planning provides many advantages such as reduced effort expended on forecasting and the ability to quickly roll up data for capacity planning. Size curves are based on historical proportions of sales. For …

The Universal Rotation Curve of Disk Galaxies
… an investigation of the Universal Rotation Curve (URC) hypothesis. A URC is an analytic function that can predict the rotation curve (RC) of any disk galaxy and, through the relations used to define it, directly correlate stellar properties to dark halo parameters. By examining these …
