This paper presents a novel adaptive parallel Expected Improvement (EI) infilling strategy for Efficient Global Optimization (EGO) by introducing a two-staged Non-parametric Population Monte Carlo Sampling (NPMS) scheme.The samples are uniformly generated from EI function in the first stage and converge to sub-domains of high EI values thresholded
Abstract Vaccination represents a core preventive strategy for public health, with interrelated and multifaceted effects across health and socioeconomic domains.Beyond immediate disease prevention, immunization positively influences downstream health outcomes by mitigating complications of preexisting comorbidities and promoting healthy aging.Sever
Relevance.The need to improve the oil recovery factor from carbonate reservoirs by increasing sweep/displacement coefficients, as well as by searching for ways to improve the efficiency of the reservoir pressure maintenance system.Aim.To increase the efficiency of developing carbonate reservoirs using a reservoir pressure maintenance system through
Abstract We propose a parametrization of the leading B-meson light-cone distribution amplitude (LCDA) in heavy-quark effective theory (HQET).In position space, it uses a conformal transformation that yields a systematic Taylor expansion and an integral bound, which enables control of the truncation error.Our parametrization further produces compact
The purpose of the study was to calibrate and commission optically-stimulated luminescence dosimeters (OSLDs) for in vivo measurements in contact-based 192Ir treatments for superficial high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy in place of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs).Dose linearity and dose rate dependence were tested by va
