DEA uses linear programming to construct a piecewise efficiency frontier and must only be based on the minimum assumptions of monotonicity and convexity of the efficiency frontier.
We formalized the concept of a "minimum assumption credible design" (MACD) to leverage available local information (topography/bathymetry and existing infrastructure) and the essential engineering knowledge and required construction materials (i.e., a design cross-section template).
For systems in the output-feedback form with uncertain parameters and uncertain nonlinearities we provide a robust regulator that does not rely on the minimum phaseness assumption on the system, which is crucial in the previous regulator designs for output-feedback systems.
The nonlinear ore grade estimation method combining the properties of the wavelet transform and the advantages of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) provides fast and reliable ore grade estimation, with minimum assumptions and minimum requirements for modeling skills.
This is a standard method for tests of this kind and it gives exact P values with minimum assumptions.
A global consensus on uniform guidelines should be reached about the minimum number of assumptions which should be met and best ways of testing these assumptions, in order to stimulate the quality appraisal of performed and reported IRT analyses.
A global consensus about uniform guidelines should be reached concerning the minimum number of assumptions which should be met and best ways of testing these assumptions, in order to stimulate the quality appraisal of performed IRT analyses.
In Section 5, we investigate the uniqueness of the minimum under some assumptions.
Agreement should be reached on the minimum number of assumptions which should be met (e.g. unidimensionality, model fit, and DIF analysis) and best ways of testing these assumptions.
According to this assumption, the minimum value of a shortest path is 1 if link (u, v) is not traversed, i.e., it traverses only one link from s to t.
