Using the Laplace derivative a Perron type integral, the Laplace integral, is defined. Moreover, it is shown that this integral includes Perron integral and to show that the inclusion is proper, an example of a function is constructed,…
Given a finite set of sample points, meta-learning algorithms aim to learn an optimal adaptation strategy for new, unseen tasks. Often, this data can be ambiguous as it might belong to different tasks concurrently. This is particularly the…
Measurement error and missing data in variables used in statistical models are common, and can at worst lead to serious biases in analyses if they are ignored. Yet, these problems are often not dealt with adequately, presumably in part…

Classical Laguerre spectral approximations are highly effective on the half-line when the target function is smooth in the usual polynomial scale. However, their accuracy deteriorates for nonsmooth functions. Such behavior appears naturally…
Using nonstandard analysis (NSA), the proof of the Laplace's formula is given. The usage of NSA reduces the intricacy of taking limit, and the crude line of the proof would be clearly seen, compared to the done with the rigorous classical…
