Feature selection is indispensable in microbiome data analysis, but it can be particularly challenging as microbiome data sets are high-dimensional, underdetermined, sparse and compositional. Great efforts have recently been made on…

Data-driven control strategies for dynamical systems with unknown parameters are popular in theory and applications. An essential problem is to prevent stochastic linear systems becoming destabilized, due to the uncertainty of the…

Existing deterministic variational inference approaches for diffusion processes use simple proposals and target the marginal density of the posterior. We construct the variational process as a controlled version of the prior process and…

We study the parameters range for the fixed point of a class of complex dynamics with the rational fractional function as $R_{n,a,c}(z)=z^n+\frac{a}{z^n}+c$, where $n=1,2,3,4$ is specified, $a$ and $c$ are two complex parameters. The…
