In this problem, the optimal path is one that maximizes the expected utility, with the utility function being piecewise-linear and concave. Such a utility function can be used to approximate nonlinear ...

The entire chip had three layers of neurons performing matrix multiplications and two nonlinear function units in between. Overall, the network implemented on the chip could work with 132 parameters.

Mixed models are used for the analysis of data measured over time to study population-level change and individual differences in change characteristics. Linear and nonlinear functions may be used to ...

It formalizes circular causalities between order and control parameters into a set of nonlinear difference equations and shows how self-organized thresholds create critical instabilities and ...
