An extension of the Ising model is proposed as a viable alternative for data with values $-1$, $0$ and $+1$ in the inverse problem, i.e., estimation of the parameters. This model is called the Blume-Capel (BC) model, adapted from physics…

The Bethe-Salpeter (BS) equation in the ladder approximation is studied within a scalar theory: two scalar fields (constituents) with mass $m$ interacting via an exchange of a scalar field (tieon) with mass $\mu$. The BS equation is written…

The previous support vector machine(SVM) including $0/1$ loss SVM, hinge loss SVM, ramp loss SVM, truncated pinball loss SVM, and others, overlooked the degree of penalty for the correctly classified samples within the margin. This…
The hard edge and bulk scaling limits of $\beta$-ensembles are described by the stochastic Bessel and sine operators, which are respectively a random Sturm-Liouville operator and a random Dirac operator. By representing both operators as…

Social scientists often study how a policy reform impacted a single targeted country. Increasingly, this is done with the synthetic control method (SCM). SCM models the country's counterfactual (non-reform or untreated) trajectory as a…
