This paper aims to investigate a full numerical approximation of non-autonomous semilnear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) with nonsmooth initial data. Our main interest is on such PDEs where the nonlinear part is stronger…
Vecchia's approximate likelihood for Gaussian process parameters depends on how the observations are ordered, which can be viewed as a deficiency because the exact likelihood is permutation-invariant. This article takes the alternative…
Evolution strategies (ESs) are zeroth-order stochastic black-box optimization heuristics invariant to monotonic transformations of the objective function. They evolve a multivariate normal distribution, from which candidate solutions are…

The Newton, Gauss--Newton and Levenberg--Marquardt methods all use the first derivative of a vector function (the Jacobian) to minimise its sum of squares. When the Jacobian matrix is ill-conditioned, the function varies much faster in some…
Wave function collapse models are considered as the modified theories of standard quantum mechanics at the macroscopic level. By introducing nonlinear stochastic terms in the Schr\"odinger equation, these models make predictions,…

There have been great efforts on the development of higher-order numerical schemes for compressible Euler equations. The traditional tests mostly targeting on the strong shock interactions alone may not be adequate to test the performance…
The Wendland functions are a class of compactly supported radial basis functions with a user-specified smoothness parameter. We prove that with a linear change of variables, both the original and the "missing" Wendland functions converge…
