Abstract:
We propose a Bayesian nonparametric model based on Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods for the joint reconstruction and prediction of discrete time stochastic dynamical systems based on m-multiple time-series data, perturbed by additive dynamical noise. We introduce the Pairwise Dependent Geometric Stick-Breaking Reconstruction (PD-GSBR) model, which relies on the construction of an m-variate nonparametric prior over the space of densities supported over Rm. We are focusing on the case where at least one of the time-series has a sufficiently large sample size representation for an independent and accurate Geometric Stick-Breaking estimation, as defined in Merkatas et al. [Chaos 27, 063116 (2017)]. Our contention is that whenever the dynamical error processes perturbing the underlying dynamical systems share common characteristics, underrepresented data sets can benefit in terms of model estimation accuracy. The PD-GSBR estimation and prediction procedure is demonstrated specifically in the case of maps with polynomial nonlinearities of an arbitrary degree. Simulations based on synthetic time-series are presented.

Acid Strength and Molecular Structure
In the absence of any leveling effect, the acid strength of binary compounds of hydrogen with nonmetals (A) increases as the H-A bond strength decreases down a group in the periodic table. For group 17, the order of increasing acidity is HF < HCl < HBr < HI. Likewise, for group 16, the order of increasing acid strength is H2O < H2S < H2Se < H2Te. Across a row in the periodic table, the acid strength of binary hydrogen compounds increases with increasing...

Suture
All the bones of the skull, except for the mandible, are joined to each other by a fibrous joint called a suture. The fibrous connective tissue found at a suture strongly unites the adjacent skull bones and thus helps to protect the brain and form the face. In...

There are two types of cartilaginous joints:
Synchondrosis
A synchondrosis ("joined by cartilage") is a cartilaginous joint where bones are connected by hyaline cartilage. Synchondrosis may be temporary...
Joints
Structural joint classifications are based on the material that makes up the joint as well as whether or not the joint contains a space between the bones. Joints are structurally classified as fibrous, cartilaginous, or synovial.
