For this work, we studied a finite system of discreet-size aggregating particles for two types of kernels with arbitrary parameters, a condensation (or branched-chain polymerization) kernel, $K(i,j)=(A+i)(A+j)$, and a linear combination of…
The use of covariance kernels is ubiquitous in the field of spatial statistics. Kernels allow data to be mapped into high-dimensional feature spaces and can thus extend simple linear additive methods to nonlinear methods with higher order…
