Saddle Point Problems, Bilevel Problems, and Mathematical Program with Equilibrium Constraint on Complete Metric Spaces

We apply an existence theorem of variational inclusion problem on metric spaces to study optimization problems, set-valued vector saddle point problems, bilevel Playskool problems, and mathematical programs with equilibrium constraint on metric spaces.We study these problems without any convexity and compactness assumptions.Our results are differen

Applying Noncontact Sensing Technology in the Customized Product Design of Smart Clothes Based on Anthropometry

Electrocardiograms (ECGs) provide important information for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases.In clinical practice, the conventional Ag/AgCl electrode is generally used; however, it is not suitable for long-term ECG measurement because of the risk of allergic reactions on the skin and the dying issue of electrolytic gels.In previous studies, sever

Using GIS mapping of the extent of nearshore rocky reefs to estimate the abundance and reproductive output of important fishery species.

Kelp Bass (Paralabrax clathratus) and California Sheephead (Semicossyphus pulcher) are economically and ecologically valuable rocky reef fishes in southern California, making them likely indicator species for evaluating resource management actions.Multiple spatial datasets, aerial and satellite photography, underwater observations and expert judgme
