Motivated by a product warranty claims dataset, we propose clustered coefficient regression models in a nonhomogeneous Poisson process for recurrent event data. The proposed method, referred as CLU…
A ride-hailing platform is an app-based, two-sided platform that matches riders with vehicles via information technology (IT). In 2015, the Shanghai government introduced a policy to restrict taxi …
This study examines whether and how an online service marketplace can leverage refund options endorsed by different parties (i.e., the platform or sellers) to address the “lemons” problem that …
To adapt to the new characteristics of communication traffic distribution, a detection scheme suitable for medium-to-short-reach optical communication system is urgently needed. The receiver should…
In network analysis, how to estimate the number of communities K is a fundamental problem. We consider a broad setting where we allow severe degree heterogeneity and a wide range of sparsity levels…
Evolutionary multitasking (EMT) is one of the emerging topics in evolutionary computation. EMT can solve multiple related optimization tasks simultaneously and enhance the optimization of each task…
Decoy-state method has greatly filled in loopholes from multi-photon pulses in the field of quantum key distribution (QKD) and it has been employed in almost all practical QKD systems in recent yea…
Terahertz band (0.1 to 10 THz) with high carrier frequency and large available bandwidth has become a promising candidate to meet the 100 Gbit/s or even 1 Tbit/s data rate required by the future si…
The Hamiltonian of a conventional quantum system is Hermitian, which ensures real spectra of the Hamiltonian and unitary evolution of the system. However, real spectra are just the necessary condit…
It is foreseeable that the 100 Gb/s/ λ and beyond passive optical network (PON) will be required in future optical access networks to meet the explosive growth of data traffic. The coherent optica…
