COVID-19 Quarantine Measures Efficiency Evaluation by Best Tube Interval Data Envelopment Analysis
Operations Research Forum. 2023. No. 4. Article 21.
S. Demin
All countries have responded with a wide range of measures to stop the propagation of coronavirus. We apply best tube interval data envelopment analysis, in order to evaluate efficiency of quarantine measures using imprecise data. Using the Oxford COVID-19 Government Response Tracker’s (OxCGRT) data and given method, we construct time series of efficiency assessment of government responses to COVID-19. In addition, we separate all examined countries into several groups with similar patterns of quarantine measures efficiency. As a result, we highlight China and Vietnam as a benchmark for all other countries, because efficiency of these countries is high for almost whole period of research.

The effects of dislocations on the mobility of gas nanobubbles pinned to them are considered as novel unex- plored mechanisms of accelerated fission gas release and investigated using classical molecular dynamics of helium bubbles in FCC aluminum. Non-equilibrium methods are developed to calculate the mobility of a pinned bubble both along and across the dislocation ...

We report a high-performance implementation of the resolution-of-the-identity Hartree–Fock method that fully exploits the permutational symmetry of three-center electron repulsion integrals (ERI). The present implementation adopts a hybrid MPI+OpenMP parallelization strategy. Two different algorithmic approaches (with and without the pre-transformation of ERIs) are compared. A custom data layout introduced previously is employed. Designed to efficiently ...

We develop a new three-party quantum secret-sharing (QSS) protocol based on a three-qubit W state. This protocol encodes the secret-sequence bits using X gates and employs randomly selected Hadamard operations and measurement bases to generate information and security-test rounds. We evaluate the efficiency of the proposed protocol and analyze its security against an internal adversary ...

The stochastic frontier model (SFM) is widely employed in the analysis of productivity and efficiency, yet strict parametric forms, such as the Cobb-Douglas and Translog functions, are often assumed for modeling production, leading to potential misspecification issues. While semi- and nonparametric SFMs offer greater flexibility, they face challenges in imposing monotonicity and concavity to maintain ...

We provide four equivalent combinatorial conditions for a simple assembly graph (rigid vertex graph where all vertices are of degree 1 or 4) to have the largest number of Hamiltonian sets of polygonal paths relative to its size. These conditions serve to prove the conjecture that such a maximum, which is equal to 𝐹_(2𝑛+1) −1, ...

In this paper, we construct a weighted Sobolev space of fractional order based on the
generalized Bessel potential.We apply these results to the analysis of the singular fractional Schr¨odinger

This article demonstrates that the Laplace–Bessel operator generates a strongly continuous
semigroup on a weighted Lebesgue space. Using this semigroup, we define the fractional Laplace–
Bessel operator via Balakrishnan’s formula. Furthermore, we derive three distinct representations for
fractional powers of the negative Laplace–Bessel operator. ...

In this paper, we introduce a new construction of fractional derivatives and integrals
with respect to a function, based on a matrix approach. We believe that this is a powerful
tool in both analytical and numerical calculations.We begin with the differential
operator with respect to a function that generates a semigroup. By discretizing this
operator, we obtain a matrix ...

Financial markets of emerging economies are vulnerable to extreme and cascading information spillovers, surges, sudden stops and reversals. With this in mind, we develop a new online early warning system (EWS) to detect what is referred to as ‘concept drift’ in machine learning, as a ‘regime shift’ in economics and as a ‘change-point’ in statistics. ...

We consider a class of Boolean algebras formed by intersections of regular languages with
a given language. In the case where such an algebra is isomorphic to the algebra of regular languages,
we prove the existence of an isomorphism that is computable using oracles for the regular realizability
problem and the infinite regular realizability problem. This result yields ...

We investigate how stochastic Poisson impulsive forcing influences the spatiotemporal dynamics of a two-dimensional network of Hindmarsh–Rose neurons. Unlike continuous noise, impulsive forcing introduces discrete, state-dependent perturbations, making the system response highly sensitive to both the statistics and the spatial structure of the input. In most of the parameter space, stochastic impulses destabilize the initial ...

In process mining, DFG (Directly-Follows Graph) models are popular due to their simplicity and clarity. However, if a process is acyclic but contains concurrent events, standard algorithms for discovering DFG models can generate "fake" cycles that do not actually exist in the event log. These cycles hinder the analysis of information processes, significantly reducing the ...
