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.

In this article, we investigate wave packet and solitary wave dynamics in the Whitham–Ostrovsky (WO) equation. By means of a multiple-scales expansion, we formally derive a nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation governing the envelope evolution.The corresponding modulational stability diagram is then obtained using the Lighthill criterion. We show that sufficiently large values of the low-frequency dispersive term render ...

We consider 3-diffeomorphisms with source–sink dynamics where Smale solenoids play the role of the source and the sink (NSSS-diffeomorphisms). It is known that such diffeomorphisms exist only on lens spaces. On the 3-sphere, every NSSS-diffeomorphism is associated with an exchangeable braid. An exchangeable braid with the strand number n was constructed for each n 3 in such a way ...

We study hyperbolic chaotic dynamics for maps of a two-dimensional torus. We introduce a two-parameter family of diffeomorphisms which, as we show, demonstrates all types of hyperbolic chaotic dynamics that can appear in the two-dimensional case. In addition, we describe all the bifurcations responsible for the transitions between these chaotic regimes. ...

Гомеоморфизмы топологических пространств называются эквивалентными по надстройке, если надстройки над ними топологически эквивалентны. В частности, топологически сопряженные гомеоморфизмы эквивалентны по надстройке. Известно, что для гомологически неприводимых гомеоморфизмов их топологическая сопряженность является необходимым и достаточным условием их эквивалентности по надстройке. Тогда как инварианты топологической сопряженности гомологически приводимых гомеоморфизмов во многих случаях являются избыточными для эквивалентности по ...

Пусть M обозначает симметрическое пространство некомпактного типа ранга 1. Опираясь на фундаментальную работу [1], в [2] было показано, что плотность соответствующим образом нормированной суммы независимых Hn-значных случайных величин, определенная через сложение Мёбиуса в модели шара Пуанкаре, сходится к фундаментальному решению соответствующего уравнения теплопроводности. Пределом являлся нормальный закон на Hn, соответствующий ядру теплопроводности, определяемому оператором Лапласа–Бельтрами. ...

The Hough transform (HT) is widely used in computer vision, tomography, and neural networks. Numerous algorithms for HT computation have been proposed, making their systematic comparison essential. However, existing comparative methodologies are either non-universal and limited to certain HT formulations, or task-oriented, relying on application-specific criteria that do not fully capture algorithmic properties.
