Effect basic algebras (which correspond to lattice ordered effect algebras) are studied. Their ideals are characterized (in the language of basic algebras) and one-to-one correspondence between ideals and congruences is shown. Conditions under which the quotients are OMLs or MV-algebras are found.

Consensus clustering algorithms are used to improve properties of traditional clustering methods, especially their accuracy and robustness. In this article, we introduce our approach that is based on a refinement of the set of initial partitions and uses differential evolution algorithm in order to find the most valid solution. Properties of the algorithm are demonstrated on four benchmark datasets.

A robust version of the Ordinary Least Squares accommodating the idea of weighting the order statistics of the squared residuals (rather than directly the squares of residuals) is recalled and its properties are studied. The existence of solution of the corresponding extremal problem and the consistency under heteroscedasticity is proved.

With the rapid increase in the number of mobile devices connected to the Internet in recent years, the network load is increasing. As a result, there are significant delays in the delivery of cloud resources to mobile users. Edge computing technologies (edge, cloudlet, fog computing, etc.) have been widely used in recent years to eliminate network delays. This problem can be solved by allocating cloud resources to the cloudlets that are close to users. The article proposes a clustering-based model...

Let (X1,Y1),...,(Xm,Ym) be m independent identically distributed bivariate vectors and L1 = β1X1 + ... + βmXm, L2 = β1X1 + ... + βmXm are two linear forms with positive coefficients. We study two problems: under what conditions does the equidistribution of L1 and L2 imply the same property for X1 and Y1, and under what conditions does the independence of L1 and L2 entail independence of X1 and Y1? Some analytical sufficient conditions are obtained and it is shown that in general they can not be...

Let $(X_1,Y_1),...,(X_m,Y_m)$ be $m$ independent identically distributed bivariate vectors and $L_1={\beta }_1{X}_1+...+{\beta }_m{X}_m$, $L_2={\beta }_1{Y}_1+...+{\beta }_m{Y}_m$ are two linear forms with positive coefficients. We study two problems: under what conditions does the equidistribution of $L_1$ and $L_2$ imply the same property for $X_1$ and $Y_1$, and under what conditions does the independence of $L_1$ and $L_2$ entail independence of $X_1$ and $Y_1$? Some analytical sufficient conditions are obtained and it is shown that in general they can not be weakened.

In this paper, we introduce two transformations on a given copula to construct new and recover already-existent families. The method is based on the choice of pairs of order statistics of the marginal distributions. Properties of such transformations and their effects on the dependence and symmetry structure of a copula are studied.

We construct two pairs $({𝒜}_F^{\left[1\right]},{𝒜}_F^{\left[2\right]})$ and $({𝒜}_{\psi }^{\left[1\right]},{𝒜}_{\psi }^{\left[2\right]})$ of ordered parametric families of symmetric dependence functions. The families of the first pair are indexed by regular distribution functions $F$, and those of the second pair by elements $\psi$ of a specific function family $\psi$. We also show that all solutions of the differential equation $\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}u}=\frac{\alpha \left(u\right)}{u(1-u)}y$ for $\alpha$ in a certain function family ${\alpha }_{\mathrm{s}}$ are symmetric dependence functions.

L'une des limites de l'analyse des correspondances multiples appliquée à de grands tableaux de données qualitatives est la difficulté d'analyse et d'interprétation des structures de relations entre variables. Afin de dépasser la frontière descriptive, il est proposé une méthodologie de recherche de schémas d'implication reposant sur les fréquences conditionnelles données par les tableaux de Burt. L'analyse des correspondances multiples y est utilisée comme filtre principal de variables à partir...
