On imitation dynamics in potential population games

Imitation dynamics for population games are studied and their asymptotic properties analyzed. In the considered class of imitation dynamics - that encompass the replicator equation as well as other models previously considered in evolutionary biology - players have no global information about the game structure, and all they know is their own current utility and the one of fellow players contacted

Technical Committee on Networks and Communication Systems [Technical Activities]

The IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) Technical Committee on Networks and Communication Systems (TC-NCS) focuses on areas that involve the interplay among networks, communication, and systems control. The TC is organized into eight working groups, Control of Network Systems, Information Networks and Control, Networked Sensing and Sensor Networks, Optimization and Game Theoretic Methods in Network

The Influence of Number and Timing of Pregnancies on Breast Cancer Risk for Women With BRCA1 or BRCA2 Mutations

Background: Full-term pregnancy (FTP) is associated with a reduced breast cancer (BC) risk over time, but women are at increased BC risk in the immediate years following an FTP. No large prospective studies, however, have examined whether the number and timing of pregnancies are associated with BC risk for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers.Methods: Using weighted and time-varying Cox proportional

Technical Committee on Networks and Communication Systems [Technical Activities]

The IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) Technical Committee on Networks and Communication Systems (TC-NCS) focuses on areas that involve the interplay between networks, communication, and systems control. TCNCS currently has 47 members and is organized into eight working groups. These are Control of Network Systems, Networked Sensing and Sensor Networks, Optimization and Game-Theoretic Methods in N

Ensembles of codes over Abelian groups

In this paper we study ensembles of Abelian group codes on symmetric channels. Our main example is the AWGN channel where the inputs are restricted to a GU constellation admitting ℤm as a generating group. For codes which are ℤm-free modules, we prove a sort of Shannon theorem which exactly characterizes which are the rates for which reliable transmission is possible. In particular we prove that f

ML performances of serial turbo codes do not concentrate!

In this paper we investigate the typical behaviour of minimum distance and ML word error probability of a serial turbo concatenation with random interleaver, when the interleaver length N goes to infinity. Our main result shows that the word error probability P(e) goes to zero subexponentially in N with probability one. While it is known that 10glE[P(e)]/logN converges to a constant, we prove that

On the error exponent of Markov channels with ISI and feedback

We extend Burnashev's [5] classic result for the error exponent of discrete memoryless channels with feedback to the case of Markov channels with ISI and feedback. This is a nontrivial extension of our previous work [6] where we treated the case of Markov channels with feedback but without ISI. Tools from stochastic control theory are used to treat the case with ISI.

On the Gilbert-Varshamov distance of abelian group codes

The problem of the minimum Bhattacharyya distance of group codes over symmetric channels is addressed. Ensembles of ℤm-linear codes are introduced and their typical minimum distance characterized in terms of the Gilbert-Varshamov distances associated to the subgroups of ℤm. For the AWGN channel with 8-PSK as input it is shown that the typical ℤ8 -linear code achieves the Gilbert-Varshamov bound.

On the Burnashev exponent for Markov channels

We consider the reliability function of Markov channels with feedback and variable length channel codes. We extend Burnashev's [3] classic result to this case and present a single letter characterization for the reliability function.

Swedish Central Bank Policy in the Post-War Period: Some Comments

Swedish Central Bank Policy in the Post-War Period: Some CommentsThis article discusses the nature of the actions taken by the Swedish central bank - the Riksbank - in the post-war period and examines some of the consequences of these measures. In this context the views of the critics of the Riksbank are presented. Further, a review of the Riksbank’s measures is given. A distinction between moneta

Climate Change Adaptation and Gender Inequality: Insights from Rural Vietnam

Vietnam is one of the countries most vulnerable to climate change impacts, especially from extreme weather events such as storms and floods. Thus, climate change adaptation is crucial, especially for natural resource-dependent farmers. Based on a qualitative research approach using a feminist political ecology lens, this article investigates gendered patterns of rural agrarian livelihoods and clim
