The Keep-Right-Except-To-Pass RuleSummaryAs for the first question, it provides a traffic rule of keep right except to pass, requiring us to verify its effectiveness. Firstly, we define one kind of traffic rule different from the rule of the keep right in order to solve the problem clearly; then, we build a Cellular automaton model and a Nasch model by collecting massive data; next, we make full use of the numerical simulation according to several influence factors of traffic flow; At last, by lots of analysis of graph we obtain, we indicate a conclusion as follow: when vehicle density is lower than 0.15, the rule of lane speed control is more effective in terms of the factor of safe in the light traffic; when vehicle density is greater than 0.15, so the rule of keep right except passing is more effective In the heavy traffic.As for the second question, it requires us to testify that whether the conclusion we obtain in the first question is the same apply to the keep left rule. First of all, we build a stochastic multi-lane traffic model; from the view of the vehicle flow stress, we propose that the probability of moving to the right is 0.7and to the left otherwise by making full use of the Bernoulli process from the view of the ping-pong effect, the conclusion is that the choice of the changing lane is random. On the whole, the fundamental reason is the formation of the driving habit, so the conclusion is effective under the rule of keep left.As for the third question, it requires us to demonstrate the effectiveness of the result advised in the first question under the intelligent vehicle control system. Firstly, taking the speed limits into consideration, we build a microscopic traffic simulator model for traffic simulation purposes. Then, we implement a METANET model for prediction state with the use of the MPC traffic controller. Afterwards, we certify that the dynamic speed control measure can improve the traffic flow .Lastly neglecting the safe factor, combining the rule of keep right with the rule of dynamical speed control is the best solution to accelerate the traffic flow overall.Key words:Cellular automaton model Bernoulli process Microscopic traffic simulator model The MPC traffic controlContentContent (2)1.

IntroductionAs is known to all, it’s essential for us to drive automobiles, thus the driving rules is crucial important. In many countries like USA, China, drivers obey the rules which called “The Keep-Right-Except-To-Pass (that is, when driving automobiles, the rule requires drivers to drive in the right-most unless theyare passing another vehicle)”.2. Analysis of the problemFor the first question, we decide to use the Cellular automaton to build models,then analyze the performance of this rule in light and heavy traffic. Firstly,we mainly use the vehicle density to distinguish the light and heavy traffic; secondly, we consider the traffic flow and safe as the represent variable which denotes the light or heavy traffic; thirdly, we build and analyze a Cellular automaton model; finally, we judge the rule through two different driving rules,and then draw conclusions.3. AssumptionIn order to streamline our model we have made several key assumptions●The highway of double row three lanes that we study can representmulti-lane freeways.●The data that we refer to has certain representativeness and descriptive●Operation condition of the highway not be influenced by blizzard oraccidental factors●Ignore the driver's own abnormal factors, such as drunk driving andfatigue driving●The operation form of highway intelligent system that our analysis canreflect intelligent system●In the intelligent vehicle system, the result of the sampling data hashigh accuracy.4. Symbol Definitioni The number of vehiclest The time5. ModelsBy analyzing the problem, we decided to propose a solution with building a cellular automaton model.5.1 Building of the Cellular automaton modelThanks to its simple rules and convenience for computer simulation, cellular automaton model has been widely used in the study of traffic flow in recent years. Let )(t x i be the position of vehicle i at time t , )(t v i be the speed of vehicle i at time t , p be the random slowing down probability, and R be the proportion of trucks and buses, the distance between vehicle i and the front vehicle at time t is:1)()(1--=-t x t x gap i i i , if the front vehicle is a small vehicle.3)()(1--=-t x t x gap i i i , if the front vehicle is a truck or bus.5.1.1 Verify the effectiveness of the keep right except to pass ruleIn addition, according to the keep right except to pass rule, we define a new rule called: Control rules based on lane speed. The concrete explanation of the new rule as follow:There is no special passing lane under this rule. The speed of the first lane (the far left lane) is 120–100km/h (including 100 km/h);the speed of the second lane (the middle lane) is 100–80km8/h (including80km/h);the speed of the third lane (the far right lane) is below 80km/ h. The speeds of lanes decrease from left to right.● Lane changing rules based lane speed controlIf vehicle on the high-speed lane meets control v v <, ),1)(min()(max v t v t gap i f i +≥, safe b i gap t gap ≥)(, the vehicle will turn into the adjacent right lane, and the speed of the vehicle after lane changing remains unchanged, where control v is the minimum speed of the corresponding lane.● The application of the Nasch model evolutionLet d P be the lane changing probability (taking into account the actual situation that some drivers like driving in a certain lane, and will not takethe initiative to change lanes), )(t gap f i indicates the distance between the vehicle and the nearest front vehicle, )(t gap b i indicates the distance between the vehicle and the nearest following vehicle. In this article, we assume that the minimum safe distance gap safe of lane changing equals to the maximum speed of the following vehicle in the adjacent lanes.Lane changing rules based on keeping right except to passIn general, traffic flow going through a passing zone (Fig. 5.1.1) involves three processes: the diverging process (one traffic flow diverging into two flows), interacting process (interacting between the two flows), and merging process (the two flows merging into one) [4].Fig.5.1.1 Control plan of overtaking process(1) If vehicle on the first lane (passing lane) meets ),1)(min()(max v t v t gap i f i +≥ and safe b i gap t gap ≥)(, the vehicle will turn into the second lane, the speed of the vehicle after lane changing remains unchanged.5.1.2 Numerical simulation results and discussionIn order to facilitate the subsequent discussions, we define the space occupation rate as L N N p truck CAR ⨯⨯+=3/)3(, where CAR N indicates the number ofsmall vehicles on the driveway,truck N indicates the number of trucks and buses on the driveway, and L indicates the total length of the road. The vehicle flow volume Q is the number of vehicles passing a fixed point per unit time,T N Q T /=, where T N is the number of vehicles observed in time duration T .The average speed ∑∑⨯=T it i a v T N V 11)/1(, t i v is the speed of vehicle i at time t . Take overtaking ratio f p as the evaluation indicator of the safety of traffic flow, which is the ratio of the total number of overtaking and the number of vehicles observed. After 20,000 evolution steps, and averaging the last 2000 steps based on time, we have obtained the following experimental results. In order to eliminate the effect of randomicity, we take the systemic average of 20 samples [5].Overtaking ratio of different control rule conditionsBecause different control conditions of road will produce different overtaking ratio, so we first observe relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and overtaking ratio under different control conditions.(a) Based on passing lane control (b) Based on speed control Fig.5.1.3Fig.5.1.3 Relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and overtaking ratio under different control conditions.It can be seen from Fig. 5.1.3:(1) when the vehicle density is less than 0.05, the overtaking ratio will continue to rise with the increase of vehicle density; when the vehicle density is larger than 0.05, the overtaking ratio will decrease with the increase of vehicle density; when density is greater than 0.12, due to the crowding, it willbecome difficult to overtake, so the overtaking ratio is almost 0.(2) when the proportion of large vehicles is less than 0.5, the overtaking ratio will rise with the increase of large vehicles; when the proportion of large vehicles is about 0.5, the overtaking ratio will reach its peak value; when the proportion of large vehicles is larger than 0.5, the overtaking ratio will decrease with the increase of large vehicles, especially under lane-based control condition s the decline is very clear.● Concrete impact of under different control rules on overtaking ratioFig.5.1.4Fig.5.1.4 Relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and overtaking ratio under different control conditions. (Figures in left-hand indicate the passing lane control, figures in right-hand indicate the speed control. 1f P is the overtaking ratio of small vehicles over large vehicles, 2f P is the overtaking ratio of small vehicles over small vehicles, 3f P is the overtaking ratio of large vehicles over small vehicles, 4f P is the overtaking ratio of large vehicles over large vehicles.). It can be seen from Fig. 5.1.4:(1) The overtaking ratio of small vehicles over large vehicles under passing lane control is much higher than that under speed control condition, which is because, under passing lane control condition, high-speed small vehicles have to surpass low-speed large vehicles by the passing lane, while under speed control condition, small vehicles are designed to travel on the high-speed lane, there is no low- speed vehicle in front, thus there is no need to overtake. ● Impact of different control rules on vehicle speedFig. 5.1.5 Relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and average speed under different control conditions. (Figures in left-hand indicates passing lane control, figures in right-hand indicates speed control.a X is the average speed of all the vehicles, 1a X is the average speed of all the small vehicles, 2a X is the average speed of all the buses and trucks.).It can be seen from Fig. 5.1.5:(1) The average speed will reduce with the increase of vehicle density and proportion of large vehicles.(2) When vehicle density is less than 0.15,a X ,1a X and 2a X are almost the same under both control conditions.Effect of different control conditions on traffic flowFig.5.1.6Fig. 5.1.6 Relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and traffic flow under different control conditions. (Figure a1 indicates passing lane control, figure a2 indicates speed control, and figure b indicates the traffic flow difference between the two conditions.It can be seen from Fig. 5.1.6:(1) When vehicle density is lower than 0.15 and the proportion of large vehicles is from 0.4 to 1, the traffic flow of the two control conditions are basically the same.(2) Except that, the traffic flow under passing lane control condition is slightly larger than that of speed control condition.5.1.3 ConclusionIn this paper, we have established three-lane model of different control conditions, studied the overtaking ratio, speed and traffic flow under different control conditions, vehicle density and proportion of large vehicles.5.2 The solving of second question5.2.1 The building of the stochastic multi-lane traffic model5.2.2 ConclusionOn one hand, from the analysis of the model, in the case the stress is positive, we also consider the jam situation while making the decision. More specifically, if a driver is in a jam situation, applying ))(,2(x P B R results with a tendency of moving to the right lane for this driver. However in reality, drivers tend to find an emptier lane in a jam situation. For this reason, we apply a Bernoulli process )7.0,2(B where the probability of moving to the right is 0.7and to the left otherwise, and the conclusion is under the rule of keep left except to pass, So, the fundamental reason is the formation of the driving habit.5.3 Taking the an intelligent vehicle system into a accountFor the third question, if vehicle transportation on the same roadway was fully under the control of an intelligent system, we make some improvements for the solution proposed by us to perfect the performance of the freeway by lots of analysis.5.3.1 Introduction of the Intelligent Vehicle Highway SystemsWe will use the microscopic traffic simulator model for traffic simulation purposes. The MPC traffic controller that is implemented in the Matlab needs a traffic model to predict the states when the speed limits are applied in Fig.5.3.1. We implement a METANET model for prediction purpose[14].5.3.2 Control problemAs a constraint, the dynamic speed limits are given a maximum and minimum allowed value. The upper bound for the speed limits is 120 km/h, and the lower bound value is 40 km/h. For the calculation of the optimal control values, all speed limits are constrained to this range. When the optimal values are found, they are rounded to a multiplicity of 10 km/h, since this is more clear for human drivers, and also technically feasible without large investments.5.3.3 Results and analysisWhen the density is high, it is more difficult to control the traffic, since the mean speed might already be below the control speed. Therefore, simulations are done using densities at which the shock wave can dissolve without using control, and at densities where the shock wave remains. For each scenario, five simulations for three different cases are done, each with a duration of one hour. The results of the simulations are reported in Table 5.1, 5.2, 5.3.●Enforced speed limits●Intelligent speed adaptationFor the ISA scenario, the desired free-flow speed is about 100% of the speed limit. The desired free-flow speed is modeled as a Gaussian distribution, with a mean value of 100% of the speed limit, and a standard deviation of 5% of the speed limit. Based on this percentage, the influence of the dynamic speed limits is expected to be good[19].5.3.4 The comprehensive analysis of the resultFrom the analysis above, we indicate that adopting the intelligent speed control system can effectively decrease the travel times under the control of an intelligent system, in other words, the measures of dynamic speed control can improve the traffic flow.Evidently, under the intelligent speed control system, the effect of the dynamic speed control measure is better than that under the lane speed control mentioned in the first problem. Because of the application of the intelligent speed control system, it can provide the optimal speed limit in time. In addition, it can guarantee the safe condition with all kinds of detection device and the sensor under the intelligent speed system.On the whole, taking all the analysis from the first problem to the end into a account, when it is in light traffic, we can neglect the factor of safe with the help of the intelligent speed control system.Thus, under the state of the light traffic, we propose a new conclusion different from that in the first problem: the rule of keep right except to pass is more effective than that of lane speed control.And when it is in the heavy traffic, for sparing no effort to improve the operation efficiency of the freeway, we combine the dynamical speed control measure with the rule of keep right except to pass, drawing a conclusion that the application of the dynamical speed control can improve the performance of the freeway.What we should highlight is that we can make some different speed limit as for different section of road or different size of vehicle with the application of the Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems.In fact, that how the freeway traffic operate is extremely complex, thereby,with the application of the Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems, by adjusting our solution originally, we make it still effective to freeway traffic.6. Improvement of the model6.1 strength and weakness6.1.1 Strength●it is easy for computer simulating and can be modified flexibly to consideractual traffic conditions ,moreover a large number of images make the model more visual.●The result is effectively achieved all of the goals we set initially, meantimethe conclusion is more persuasive because of we used the Bernoulli equation.●We can get more accurate result as we apply Matlab.6.1.2 Weakness●The relationship between traffic flow and safety is not comprehensivelyanalysis.●Due to there are many traffic factors, we are only studied some of the factors,thus our model need further improved.6.2 Improvement of the modelWhile we compare models under two kinds of traffic rules, thereby we come to the efficiency of driving on the right to improve traffic flow in some circumstance. Due to the rules of comparing is too less, the conclusion is inadequate. In order to improve the accuracy, We further put forward a kinds of traffic rules: speed limit on different type of cars.The possibility of happening traffic accident for some vehicles is larger, and it also brings hidden safe troubles. So we need to consider separately about different or specific vehicle types from the angle of the speed limiting in order to reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents, the highway speed limit signs is in Fig.6.1.Fig .6.1Advantages of the improving model are that it is useful to improve the running condition safety of specific type of vehicle while considering the difference of different types of vehicles. However, we found that the rules may be reduce the road traffic flow through the analysis. In the implementation it should be at the 85V speed of each model as the main reference basis.

This model considers a large number of parameters thought to be important to investment in the given College Scorecard Data Set.In order to develop the required model, two sub-models are constructed as follows: 1.For Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) Model, we identify the prioritizedcandidate list of schools by synthesizing the elements which have an influence on investment. First we define the specific value of any two elements’ effect on investment. And then the weight of each element’s influence on investment can be identified. Ultimately, we take the relevant parameters into the calculated weight, and then we get any school’s recommended value of investment.2.For Return On Investment M odel, it’s constructed on the basis of AHP Model.Let us suppose that all the investment is used to help the students to pay tuition fee.Then we can see optimal investment as that we help more students to the universities of higher return rate. However, because of dropout rate, there will be an optimization investment amount in each university. Therefore, we can change the problem into a nonlinear programming problem. We identify the optimal investment amount by maximizing return-on-investment.Specific attention is given to the stability and error analysis of our model. The influence of the model is discussed when several fundamental parameters vary. We attempt to use our model to prioritize the schools and identify investment amount of the candidate schools, and then an optimal investment strategy is generated. Ultimately, to demonstrate how our model works, we apply it to the given College Scorecard Data Set. For various situations, we propose an optimal solution. And we also analyze the strengths and weaknesses of our model. We believe that we can make our model more precise if more information are provided.Contents1.Introduction 21.1Restatement of the Problem (2)1.2Our Approach (2)2.Assumptions 23.Notations 34.The Optimal Investment Model 44.1Analytic Hierarchy Process Model (4)4.1.1Constructing the Hierarchy (4)4.1.2Constructing the Judgement Matrix (5)4.1.3Hierarchical Ranking (7)4.2Return On Investment Model (8)4.2.1Overview of the investment strategy (8)4.2.2Analysis of net income and investment cost (9)4.2.3Calculate Return On Investment (11)4.2.4Maximize the Total Net Income (11)5.Test the Model125.1Error Analysis (12)5.2Stability Analysis (13)6.Results136.1Results of Analytic Hierarchy Process (13)6.2Results of Return On Investment Model (14)7.Strengths and Weaknesses157.1Strengths (15)7.2Weaknesses (16)References16 Appendix A Letter to the Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Alpha Chiang.171.Introduction1.1Restatement of the ProblemIn order to help improve educational performance of undergraduates attending colleges and universities in the US, the Goodgrant Foundation intends to donate a total of $100,000,000 to an appropriate group of schools per year, for five years, starting July 2016. We are to develop a model to determine an optimal investment strategy that identifies the school, the investment amount per school, the return on that investment, and the time duration that the organization’s money should be provided to have the highest likelihood of producing a strong positive effect on student performance. Considering that they don’t want to duplicate the investments and focus of other large grant organizations, we interpret optimal investment as a strategy that maximizes the ROI on the premise that we help more students attend better colleges. So the problems to be solved are as follows:1.How to prioritize the schools by optimization level.2.How to measure ROI of a school.3.How to measure investment amount of a specific school.1.2Our ApproachWe offer a model of optimal investment which takes a great many factors in the College Scorecard Data Set into account. To begin with, we make a 1 to N optimized and prioritized candidate list of school we are recommending for investment by the AHP model. For the sake that we invest more students to better school, several factors are considered in the AHP model, such as SAT score, ACT score, etc. And then, we set investment amount of each university in the order of the list according to the standard of maximized ROI. The implement details of the model will be described in section 4.2.AssumptionsWe make the following basic assumptions in order to simplify the problem. And each of our assumptions is justified.1.Investment amount is mainly used for tuition and fees. Considering that theincome of an undergraduate is usually much higher than a high school students, we believe that it’s necessary to help more poor students have a chance to go to college.2.Bank rates will not change during the investment period. The variation ofthe bank rates have a little influence on the income we consider. So we make this assumption just to simplify the model.3.The employment rates and dropout rates will not change, and they aredifferent for different schools4.For return on investment, we only consider monetary income, regardlessof the intangible income.3.NotationsWe use a list of symbols for simplification of expression.4.The Optimal Investment ModelIn this section, we first prioritize schools by the AHP model (Section 4.1), and then calculate ROI value of the schools (Section 4.2). Ultimately, we identify investment amount of every candidate schools according to ROI (Section 4.3).4.1Analytic Hierarchy Process ModelIn order to prioritize schools, we must consider each necessary factor in the College Scorecard Data Set. For each factor, we calculate its weight value. And then, we can identify the investment necessity of each school. So, the model can be developed in 3 steps as follows:4.1.1Constructing the HierarchyWe consider 19 elements to measure priority of candidate schools, which can be seen in Fig 1. The hierarchy could be diagrammed as follows:Fig.1AHP for the investment decisionThe goal is red, the criteria are green and the alternatives are blue. All the alternatives are shown below the lowest level of each criterion. Later in the process, each alternatives will be rated with respect to the criterion directly above it.As they build their hierarchy, we should investigate the values or measurements of the different elements that make it up. If there are published fiscal policy, for example, or school policy, they should be gathered as part of the process. This information will be needed later, when the criteria and alternatives are evaluated.Note that the structure of the investment hierarchy might be different for other foundations. It would definitely be different for a foundation who doesn't care how much his score is, knows he will never dropout, and is intensely interested in math, history, and the numerous aspects of study[1].4.1.2Constructing the Judgement MatrixHierarchy reflects the relationship among elements to consider, but elements in the Criteria Layer don’t always weigh equal during aim measure. In deciders’ mind, each element accounts for a particular proportion.To incorporate their judgments about the various elements in the hierarchy, decision makers compare the elements “two by two”. The fundamental scale for pairwise comparison are shown in Fig 2.Fig 2Right now, let's see which items are compared. Our example will begin with the six criteria in the second row of the hierarchy in Fig 1, though we could begin elsewhere if we want. The criteria will be compared as to how important they are to the decisionmakers, with respect to the goal. Each pair of items in this row will be compared.Fig 3 Investment Judgement MatrixIn the next row, there is a group of 19 alternatives under the criterion. In the subgroup, each pair of alternatives will be compared regarding their importance with respect to the criterion. (As always, their importance is judged by the decision makers.) In the subgroup, there is only one pair of alternatives. They are compared as to how important they are with respect to the criterion.Things change a bit when we get to the alternatives row. Here, the factor in each group of alternatives are compared pair-by-pair with respect to the covering criterion of the group, which is the node directly above them in the hierarchy. What we are doing here is evaluating the models under consideration with respect to score, then with respect to Income, then expenditure, dropout rate, debt and graduation rate.The foundation can evaluate alternatives against their covering criteria in any order they choose. In this case, they choose the order of decreasing priority of the covering criteria.Fig 4 Score Judgement MatrixFig 5 Expenditure Judgement MatrixFig 6 Income Judgement MatrixFig 7 Dropout Judgement MatrixFig 8 Debt Judgement MatrixFig 9 Graduation Matrix4.1.3 Hierarchical RankingWhen the pairwise comparisons are as numerous as those in our example, specialized AHP software can help in making them quickly and efficiently. We will assume that the foundation has access to such software, and that it allows the opinions of various foundations to be combined into an overall opinion for the group.The AHP software uses mathematical calculations to convert these judgments to priorities for each of the six criteria. The details of the calculations are beyond the scope of this article, but are readily available elsewhere[2][3][4][5]. The software also calculates a consistency ratio that expresses the internal consistency of the judgments that have been entered. In this case the judgments showed acceptable consistency, and the software used the foundation’s inputs to assign these new priorities to the criteria:Fig 10.AHP hierarchy for the foundation investing decision.In the end, the AHP software arranges and totals the global priorities for each of the alternatives. Their grand total is 1.000, which is identical to the priority of the goal. Each alternative has a global priority corresponding to its "fit" to all the foundation's judgments about all those aspects of factor. Here is a summary of the global priorities of the alternatives:Fig 114.2 ROI Model4.2.1 Overview of the investment strategyConsider a foundation making investment on a set of N geographically dispersed colleges and university in the United States, D = {1, 2, 3……N }. Then we can select top N schools from the candidate list which has been sorted through analytic hierarchy process. The total investment amount is M per year which is donated by the Goodgrant Foundation. The investment amount is j m for each school j D ∈, satisfying the following balance constraint:j j D mM ∈=∑ (1)W e can’t invest too much or too little money to one school because we want to help more students go to college, and the student should have more choices. Then the investment amount for each school must have a lower limit lu and upper limit bu as follows:j lu m bu ≤≤ (2)The tuition and fees is j p , and the time duration is {1,2,3,4}j t ∈. To simplify ourmodel, we assume that our investment amount is only used for freshmen every year. Because a freshmen oriented investment can get more benefits compared with others. For each school j D ∈, the number of the undergraduate students who will be invested is j n , which can be calculated by the following formula :,jj j j m n j D p t =∈⨯ (3)Figure12The foundation can use the ROI model to identify j m and j t so that it canmaximize the total net income. Figure1 has shown the overview of our investment model. We will then illustrate the principle and solution of this model by a kind of nonlinear programming method.4.2.2 Analysis of net income and investment costIn our return on investment model, we first focus on analysis of net income and investment cost. Obviously, the future earnings of undergraduate students are not only due to the investment itself. There are many meaning factors such as the effort, the money from their parents, the training from their companies. In order to simplify the model, we assume that the investment cost is the most important element and we don’t consider other possible influence factors. Then we can conclude that the total cost of the investment is j m for each school j D ∈.Figure 13For a single student, the meaning of the investment benefits is the expected earnings in the future. Assuming that the student is not going to college or university after graduating from high school and is directly going to work. Then his wage base is 0b as a high school graduate. If he works as a college graduate, then his wage base is 0a . Then we can give the future proceeds of life which is represented symbolically by T and we use r to represent the bank rates which will change over time. We assume that the bank rates will not change during the investment period. Here, we use bank rates in 2016 to represent the r . The future proceeds of life of a single undergraduate student will be different due to individual differences such as age, physical condition environment, etc. If we consider these differences, the calculation process will be complicated. For simplicity’s sake, we uniform the future proceeds of life T for 20 years. Then we will give two economics formulas to calculate the total expected income in the next T years for graduates and high school graduates:40(1)Tk k a u r +==+∑(4) 40(1)T kk b h r +==+∑(5) The total expected income of a graduate is u , and the total expected income of a highschool graduate is h .Then, we continue to analyze the net income. The net income can be calculated by the following formula:os NetIncome TotalIncome C t =- (6) For each school j D ∈, the net income is j P , the total income is j Q , and the cost is j m . Then we will get the following equation through formula (6):j j j P Q m =- (7)Therefore, the key of the problem is how to calculate j Q . In order to calculate j Q, weneed to estimate the number of future employment j ne . The total number of the invested is j n , which has been calculated above. Considering the dropout rates j α and the employment rates j β for each school j , we can calculate the number of future employment j ne through the following formula:(4)(1)jt j j j j n e n βα-=⨯⨯- (8)That way, we can calculate j Q by the following formula:()j j Q ne u h =⨯- (9)Finally, we take Eq. (2) (3) (4) (7) (8) into Eq. (6), and we will obtain Eq. (9) as follows:4(4)00400(1)()(1)(1)j TT t j j j j j k kk k j jm a b P m p t r r βα+-+===⨯⨯-⨯--⨯++∑∑ (10) We next reformulate the above equation of j P for concise presentation:(4)(1)j t j jj j j jc m P m t λα-⨯⨯=⨯-- (11)where jj j p βλ= and 400400(1)(1)TT k kk k a b c r r ++===-++∑∑ .4.2.3 Calculate Return On InvestmentROI is short of return on investment which can be determined by net income andinvestment cost [7]. It conveys the meaning of the financial assessment. For each schoolj D ∈ , the net income is j P , and the investment cost equals to j m . Then the j ROIcan be calculated by the following formula:100%j j jP ROI m =⨯ (12)We substitute Eq. (10) into Eq. (11), and we will get a new formula as follows:(4)((1)1)100%j t j j j jc ROI t λα-⨯=⨯--⨯ (13)4.2.4 Maximize the Total Net IncomeGiven the net income of each school, we formulate the portfolio problem that maximize the total net income, S=Max(4)((1))j t j jj j j j Dj Djc m P m t λα-∈∈⨯⨯=⨯--∑∑ (14)S.

T.jj DmM ∈=∑,{1,2,3,4t = ,j l u m b u ≤≤. By solving the nonlinear programming problem S’, we can get the sameanswer as problem S.5. Testing the Model 5.1 Error AnalysisSince the advent of analytic hierarchy process, people pay more attention to it due to the specific applicability, convenience, practicability and systematization of the method. Analytic hierarchy process has not reached the ideal situation whether in theory or application level because the results depend largely on the preference and subjective judgment. In this part, we will analyze the human error problem in analytic hierarchy process.Human error is mainly caused by human factors. The human error mainly reflects on the structure of the judgment matrix. The causes of the error are the following points:1. The number of times that human judge the factors’ importance is excessive.2. The calibration method is not perfect.Then we will give some methods to reduce errors:1. Reduce times of human judgment. One person repeatedly gave the samejudgment between two factors. Or many persons gave the same judgment between two factors one time. Finally, we take the average as result.2. Break the original calibration method. If we have defined the ranking vector111121(,...)n a a a a =between the factor 1A with others. Then we can get all theother ranking vector. For example : 12122111(,1...)na a a a a =.5.2 Stability AnalysisIt is necessary to analyze the stability of ranking result [6], because the strong subjectivefactors. If the ranking result changed a little while the judgment changed a lot, we can conclude that the method is effective and the result is acceptable, and vice versa. We assume that the weight of other factors will change if the weight of one factor changed from i ξ to i η:[8](1)(,1,2...,)(1)i j j i i j n i j ηξηξ-⨯==≠- (16)And it is simple to verify the equation:11nii η==∑ (17)And the new ranking vector ω will be:A ωη=⨯ (18)By this method, the Relative importance between other factors remain the same while one of the factor has changed.6. Results6.1 Results of Analytic Hierarchy ProcessWe can ranking colleges through the analytic hierarchy process, and we can get the top N = 20 schools as follows6.2 Results of Return On Investment ModelBased on the results above, we next use ROI model to distribute investment amountj m and time duration j t for each school j D ∈ by solving the following problem:Max (4)((1))j t j jj j j Dj Djc m P t λα-∈∈⨯⨯=⨯-∑∑S.

Considering that the investment persists for a short time, thiskind of random error is acceptable.5.Due to our investment which is freshmen oriented, other students may feel unfair.It is likely to produce adverse reaction to our investment strategy.6.The cost estimation is not impeccable.

Local stability intervals in the analytic hierarchy process. European Journal of Operational Research. 2000Letter to the Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Alpha Chiang. February 1th, 2016.I am writing this letter to introduce our optimal investment strategy. Before I describe our model, I want to discuss our proposed concept of a return-on-investment (ROI). And then I will describe the optimal investment model by construct two sub-model, namely AHP model and ROI model. Finally, the major results of the model simulation will be showed up to you.Considering that the Goodgrant Foundation aims to help improve educational performance of undergraduates attending colleges and universities in the US, we interpret return-on-investment as the increased income of undergraduates. Because the income of an undergraduate is generally much higher than a high school graduate, we suggest all the investment be used to pay for the tuition and fees. In that case, if we take both the income of undergraduates’ income and dropout rate into account, we can get the return-in-investment value.Our model begins with the production of an optimized and prioritized candidate list of schools you are recommending for investment. This sorted list of school is constructed through the use of specification that you would be fully qualified to provided, such as the score of school, the income of graduate student, the dropout rate, etc. With this information, a precise investment list of schools will be produced for donation select.Furthermore, we developed the second sub-model, ROI model, which identifies the investment amount of each school per year. If we invest more money in a school, more students will have a chance to go to college. However, there is an optimal investment amount of specific school because of the existence of dropout. So, we can identify every candidate school’s in vestment amount by solve a nonlinear programming problem. Ultimately, the result of the model simulation show that Washington University, New York University and Boston College are three schools that worth investing most. And detailed simulation can be seen in our MCM Contest article.We hope that this model is sufficient in meeting your needs in any further donation and future philanthropic educational investments within the United States.。

For the impact of the size of the bathtub, due to the insulation of the wall of the bathtub, the heat radiation of the whole body is only related to the area of the water surface, So the shape and size of the bath is just the area of the water surface. Thereby affecting the amount of heat radiation, thereby affecting the amount of water added and the temperature difference,So after a long and wide bath to determine the length of the bath. The surface area is also determined, and the heattransfer rate can be solved by the heat conduction equation, which can be used to calculate the amount of hot water. Finally, considering the effect of foaming agent, after adding the foam, the foam floats on the liquid surface, which is equivalent to a layer of heat transfer medium, This layer of medium is hindered by the convective heat transfer between water and air, thereby affecting the amount of hot water added. ,ContentTitile .............................................................................................. 错误!未定义书签。

Tittle of paperSummary/Abstract Key words:I.Introduction(引言)Organ transplantation is a preferable treatment for the most serious forms of end-stage diseases. In recent years, advances in medical science and technology have made solid organ transplantation an increasingly successful and common medical procedure, a literal ''second chance at life". Not only does it offer the best hope for complete rehabilitation, but it has also proved to be the most cost-effective of all treatment options, including dialysis. Consequently, more and more people are benefiting from organ transplants and their survival rates are steadily improving. The surgical techniques involved have been mastered for half a century and are now considered as routine. The two main sources of kidneys for transplantation are deceased-donor kidneys and live-donations from family and friends. However, unfortunately, there is a considerable shortage of donor organs, compared to demands. As a matter of fact, efficient matching and allocation of organs donated has become an exigent problem.The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), as the operator of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN), is responsible for transplant organ distribution in the United States. UNOS oversees the allocation of many different types of transplants, including liver, kidney, pancreas, heart, lung, and cornea.Focusing on kidney transplantation, based on UNOS Kidney Allocation Model, we develop a mathematical model for US transplant networks. First, incomingorgans are matched with waiting candidates by medical institutions considering the factors as ABO blood compatibility, the degree of recipient major HLA mismatch in order to obtain a matching degree applied on the allocation part. After that, from the patients’perspective, on the basis of linear regression, priority weight is defined by pondering age, disease severity, time on waiting, PRA level, and region. Applying this mechanism of ranking, we realize MWBM (Maximum Weight Bipartite-graph Matching) and SMGS (Stable Matching based on Gale-Shapley algorithm). MWBM focuses on the optimal assignment of donors following the algorithm of bipartite-graph maximum weight matching; SMGS emphasizes the process of exchanges in order to obtain the stable exchanges between donors and candidates on the waiting list.II.The Description of Problem(问题重述)III.Basic Assumptions●The level of mismatch is only relative to the number of antigens.●The data and information are accurately registered according to the medicalmeasures●The data and information are refreshed in time according to the status of thepatients●No differences in the quality of the donor kidneys●The quality of the donor kidney is constantIV.Definitions and Notations●Kidney transplantation: A kidney transplant is a surgical procedure to implant ahealthy kidney into a patient with kidney failure.●Prioritization●MD: Matching Degree●PW: Prioritization weight●MWSM: Maximum Weight Bipartite Matching●SMGS: Stable Matching based on Gale-Shapley algorithm或V.ModelsThrough the investigation of US transplantation network, we draw a general picture of the mechanism. With reference to some resources available on the website of UNOS, a flow chart (Figure 1) is developed showing the procedure of the network.Currently, the initial waiting list is composed of patients who are waiting for a kidney or combined kidney-pancreas transplant. For the first time, the patients arerequested to show the correct and scientific information to the US kidney transplant network which is needed for donor-recipient matching, the ranking of patients on the waiting list, and determining the outcome of those transplanted. The patients’waiting lists are composed of initial patients, historical patients and unsuccessful recipient after transplantation. Historical patients refer to registered patients whose status have changed and have an influence on the procedure. A patient is taken off the waiting list when a graft is offered and accepted by that patient or the patient is dead while waiting for a transplant. Unsuccessful recipients refer to the patients who have a bad result of transplantation calling for transplantation again, as it is so-called relistFigure 1.

A Summary
Our solution consists of three mathematical models, offering a thorough perspective of the leaf. In the weight evaluation model, we consider the tree crown to be spherical, and leaves reaching photosynthesis saturation will let sunlight pass through. The Fibonacci number is helping leaves to minimize overlapping each other. Thus, we obtain the total leaf area and by multiplying it to the leaf area ratio we will get the leaf weight. Furthermore, a Logistic model is applied to depict the relationship between the leaf weight and the physical characteristic of a tree, making it easy to estimate the leaf weight by simply measure the circumstance of the trunk. In the shape correlation model, the shape of a leaf is represented by its surface area. Trees living in different habitats have different sizes of leaves. Mean annual temperature(T) and mean annual precipitation(P) are supposed to be significant in determining the leaf area. We have also noticed that the density of leaves and the density of branches greatly affect the size of leaf. To measure the density, we adopt the number of leaves per unit-length branch(N) and the length of intervals between two leaf branches(L) in the model. By applying multiple linear regression to data of six tree species in different habitats, we lately discovered that leaf area is positively correlated with T, P and L. In the leaf classification model, a matter-element model is applied to evaluate the leaf, offering a way of classifying leaf according to preset criteria. In this model, the parameters in the previous model are applied to classify the leaf into three categories: Large, Medium, and Small. Data of a tree species is tested for its credit, proving the model to be an effective model of classification especially suitable for computer standardized evaluation. In sum, our models unveil the facts concerning how leaves increase as the tree grows, why different kinds of trees have different shapes of leaves, and how to classify leaves. The imprecision of measurement and the limitedness of data are the main impediment of our modeling, and some correlation might be more complicated than our hypotheses.

The Keep-Right-Except-To-Pass RuleSummaryAs for the first question, it provides a traffic rule of keep right except to pass, requiring us to verify its effectiveness. Firstly, we define one kind of traffic rule different from the rule of the keep right in order to solve the problem clearly; then, we build a Cellular automaton model and a Nasch model by collecting massive data; next, we make full use of the numerical simulation according to several influence factors of traffic flow; At last, by lots of analysis of graph we obtain, we indicate a conclusion as follow: when vehicle density is lower than 0.15, the rule of lane speed control is more effective in terms of the factor of safe in the light traffic; when vehicle density is greater than 0.15, so the rule of keep right except passing is more effective In the heavy traffic.As for the second question, it requires us to testify that whether the conclusion we obtain in the first question is the same apply to the keep left rule. First of all, we build a stochastic multi-lane traffic model; from the view of the vehicle flow stress, we propose that the probability of moving to the right is 0.7and to the left otherwise by making full use of the Bernoulli process from the view of the ping-pong effect, the conclusion is that the choice of the changing lane is random. On the whole, the fundamental reason is the formation of the driving habit, so the conclusion is effective under the rule of keep left.As for the third question, it requires us to demonstrate the effectiveness of the result advised in the first question under the intelligent vehicle control system. Firstly, taking the speed limits into consideration, we build a microscopic traffic simulator model for traffic simulation purposes. Then, we implement a METANET model for prediction state with the use of the MPC traffic controller. Afterwards, we certify that the dynamic speed control measure can improve the traffic flow .Lastly neglecting the safe factor, combining the rule of keep right with the rule of dynamical speed control is the best solution to accelerate the traffic flow overall.Key words:Cellular automaton model Bernoulli process Microscopic traffic simulator model The MPC traffic controlContentContent (2)1.

IntroductionAs is known to all, it’s essential for us to drive automobiles, thus the driving rules is crucial important. In many countries like USA, China, drivers obey the rules which called “The Keep-Right-Except-To-Pass (that is, when driving automobiles, the rule requires drivers to drive in the right-most unless theyare passing another vehicle)”.2. Analysis of the problemFor the first question, we decide to use the Cellular automaton to build models,then analyze the performance of this rule in light and heavy traffic. Firstly,we mainly use the vehicle density to distinguish the light and heavy traffic; secondly, we consider the traffic flow and safe as the represent variable which denotes the light or heavy traffic; thirdly, we build and analyze a Cellular automaton model; finally, we judge the rule through two different driving rules,and then draw conclusions.3. AssumptionIn order to streamline our model we have made several key assumptions●The highway of double row three lanes that we study can representmulti-lane freeways.●The data that we refer to has certain representativeness and descriptive●Operation condition of the highway not be influenced by blizzard oraccidental factors●Ignore the driver's own abnormal factors, such as drunk driving andfatigue driving●The operation form of highway intelligent system that our analysis canreflect intelligent system●In the intelligent vehicle system, the result of the sampling data hashigh accuracy.4. Symbol Definitioni The number of vehiclest The time5. ModelsBy analyzing the problem, we decided to propose a solution with building a cellular automaton model.5.1 Building of the Cellular automaton modelThanks to its simple rules and convenience for computer simulation, cellular automaton model has been widely used in the study of traffic flow in recent years. Let )(t x i be the position of vehicle i at time t , )(t v i be the speed of vehicle i at time t , p be the random slowing down probability, and R be the proportion of trucks and buses, the distance between vehicle i and the front vehicle at time t is:1)()(1--=-t x t x gap i i i , if the front vehicle is a small vehicle.3)()(1--=-t x t x gap i i i , if the front vehicle is a truck or bus.5.1.1 Verify the effectiveness of the keep right except to pass ruleIn addition, according to the keep right except to pass rule, we define a new rule called: Control rules based on lane speed. The concrete explanation of the new rule as follow:There is no special passing lane under this rule. The speed of the first lane (the far left lane) is 120–100km/h (including 100 km/h);the speed of the second lane (the middle lane) is 100–80km8/h (including80km/h);the speed of the third lane (the far right lane) is below 80km/ h. The speeds of lanes decrease from left to right.● Lane changing rules based lane speed controlIf vehicle on the high-speed lane meets control v v <, ),1)(min()(max v t v t gap i f i +≥, safe b i gap t gap ≥)(, the vehicle will turn into the adjacent right lane, and the speed of the vehicle after lane changing remains unchanged, where control v is the minimum speed of the corresponding lane.● The application of the Nasch model evolutionLet d P be the lane changing probability (taking into account the actual situation that some drivers like driving in a certain lane, and will not takethe initiative to change lanes), )(t gap f i indicates the distance between the vehicle and the nearest front vehicle, )(t gap b i indicates the distance between the vehicle and the nearest following vehicle. In this article, we assume that the minimum safe distance gap safe of lane changing equals to the maximum speed of the following vehicle in the adjacent lanes.Lane changing rules based on keeping right except to passIn general, traffic flow going through a passing zone (Fig. 5.1.1) involves three processes: the diverging process (one traffic flow diverging into two flows), interacting process (interacting between the two flows), and merging process (the two flows merging into one) [4].Fig.5.1.1 Control plan of overtaking process(1) If vehicle on the first lane (passing lane) meets ),1)(min()(max v t v t gap i f i +≥ and safe b i gap t gap ≥)(, the vehicle will turn into the second lane, the speed of the vehicle after lane changing remains unchanged.5.1.2 Numerical simulation results and discussionIn order to facilitate the subsequent discussions, we define the space occupation rate as L N N p truck CAR ⨯⨯+=3/)3(, where CAR N indicates the number ofsmall vehicles on the driveway,truck N indicates the number of trucks and buses on the driveway, and L indicates the total length of the road. The vehicle flow volume Q is the number of vehicles passing a fixed point per unit time,T N Q T /=, where T N is the number of vehicles observed in time duration T .The average speed ∑∑⨯=T it i a v T N V 11)/1(, t i v is the speed of vehicle i at time t . Take overtaking ratio f p as the evaluation indicator of the safety of traffic flow, which is the ratio of the total number of overtaking and the number of vehicles observed. After 20,000 evolution steps, and averaging the last 2000 steps based on time, we have obtained the following experimental results. In order to eliminate the effect of randomicity, we take the systemic average of 20 samples [5].Overtaking ratio of different control rule conditionsBecause different control conditions of road will produce different overtaking ratio, so we first observe relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and overtaking ratio under different control conditions.(a) Based on passing lane control (b) Based on speed control Fig.5.1.3Fig.5.1.3 Relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and overtaking ratio under different control conditions.It can be seen from Fig. 5.1.3:(1) when the vehicle density is less than 0.05, the overtaking ratio will continue to rise with the increase of vehicle density; when the vehicle density is larger than 0.05, the overtaking ratio will decrease with the increase of vehicle density; when density is greater than 0.12, due to the crowding, it willbecome difficult to overtake, so the overtaking ratio is almost 0.(2) when the proportion of large vehicles is less than 0.5, the overtaking ratio will rise with the increase of large vehicles; when the proportion of large vehicles is about 0.5, the overtaking ratio will reach its peak value; when the proportion of large vehicles is larger than 0.5, the overtaking ratio will decrease with the increase of large vehicles, especially under lane-based control condition s the decline is very clear.● Concrete impact of under different control rules on overtaking ratioFig.5.1.4Fig.5.1.4 Relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and overtaking ratio under different control conditions. (Figures in left-hand indicate the passing lane control, figures in right-hand indicate the speed control. 1f P is the overtaking ratio of small vehicles over large vehicles, 2f P is the overtaking ratio of small vehicles over small vehicles, 3f P is the overtaking ratio of large vehicles over small vehicles, 4f P is the overtaking ratio of large vehicles over large vehicles.). It can be seen from Fig. 5.1.4:(1) The overtaking ratio of small vehicles over large vehicles under passing lane control is much higher than that under speed control condition, which is because, under passing lane control condition, high-speed small vehicles have to surpass low-speed large vehicles by the passing lane, while under speed control condition, small vehicles are designed to travel on the high-speed lane, there is no low- speed vehicle in front, thus there is no need to overtake.● Impact of different control rules on vehicle speedFig. 5.1.5 Relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and average speed under different control conditions. (Figures in left-hand indicates passing lane control, figures in right-hand indicates speed control.a X is the average speed of all the vehicles, 1a X is the average speed of all the small vehicles, 2a X is the average speed of all the buses and trucks.).It can be seen from Fig. 5.1.5:(1) The average speed will reduce with the increase of vehicle density and proportion of large vehicles.(2) When vehicle density is less than 0.15,a X ,1a X and 2a X are almost the same under both control conditions.Effect of different control conditions on traffic flowFig.5.1.6Fig. 5.1.6 Relationships among vehicle density, proportion of large vehicles and traffic flow under different control conditions. (Figure a1 indicates passing lane control, figure a2 indicates speed control, and figure b indicates the traffic flow difference between the two conditions.It can be seen from Fig. 5.1.6:(1) When vehicle density is lower than 0.15 and the proportion of large vehicles is from 0.4 to 1, the traffic flow of the two control conditions are basically the same.(2) Except that, the traffic flow under passing lane control condition is slightly larger than that of speed control condition.5.1.3 ConclusionIn this paper, we have established three-lane model of different control conditions, studied the overtaking ratio, speed and traffic flow under different control conditions, vehicle density and proportion of large vehicles.5.2 The solving of second question5.2.1 The building of the stochastic multi-lane traffic model5.2.2 ConclusionOn one hand, from the analysis of the model, in the case the stress is positive, we also consider the jam situation while making the decision. More specifically, if a driver is in a jam situation, applying ))(,2(x P B R results with a tendency of moving to the right lane for this driver. However in reality, drivers tend to find an emptier lane in a jam situation. For this reason, we apply a Bernoulli process )7.0,2(B where the probability of moving to the right is 0.7and to the left otherwise, and the conclusion is under the rule of keep left except to pass, So, the fundamental reason is the formation of the driving habit.5.3 Taking the an intelligent vehicle system into a accountFor the third question, if vehicle transportation on the same roadway was fully under the control of an intelligent system, we make some improvements for the solution proposed by us to perfect the performance of the freeway by lots of analysis.5.3.1 Introduction of the Intelligent Vehicle Highway SystemsWe will use the microscopic traffic simulator model for traffic simulation purposes. The MPC traffic controller that is implemented in the Matlab needs a traffic model to predict the states when the speed limits are applied in Fig.5.3.1. We implement a METANET model for prediction purpose[14].5.3.2 Control problemAs a constraint, the dynamic speed limits are given a maximum and minimum allowed value. The upper bound for the speed limits is 120 km/h, and the lower bound value is 40 km/h. For the calculation of the optimal control values, all speed limits are constrained to this range. When the optimal values are found, they are rounded to a multiplicity of 10 km/h, since this is more clear for human drivers, and also technically feasible without large investments.5.3.3 Results and analysisWhen the density is high, it is more difficult to control the traffic, since the mean speed might already be below the control speed. Therefore, simulations are done using densities at which the shock wave can dissolve without using control, and at densities where the shock wave remains. For each scenario, five simulations for three different cases are done, each with a duration of one hour. The results of the simulations are reported in Table 5.1, 5.2, 5.3.

The desired free-flow speed is modeled as a Gaussian distribution, with a mean value of 100% of the speed limit, and a standard deviation of 5% of the speed limit. Based on this percentage, the influence of the dynamic speed limits is expected to be good[19].5.3.4 The comprehensive analysis of the resultFrom the analysis above, we indicate that adopting the intelligent speed control system can effectively decrease the travel times under the control of an intelligent system, in other words, the measures of dynamic speed control can improve the traffic flow.Evidently, under the intelligent speed control system, the effect of the dynamic speed control measure is better than that under the lane speed control mentioned in the first problem. Because of the application of the intelligent speed control system, it can provide the optimal speed limit in time. In addition, it can guarantee the safe condition with all kinds of detection device and the sensor under the intelligent speed system.On the whole, taking all the analysis from the first problem to the end into a account, when it is in light traffic, we can neglect the factor of safe with the help of the intelligent speed control system.Thus, under the state of the light traffic, we propose a new conclusion different from that in the first problem: the rule of keep right except to pass is more effective than that of lane speed control.And when it is in the heavy traffic, for sparing no effort to improve the operation efficiency of the freeway, we combine the dynamical speed control measure with the rule of keep right except to pass, drawing a conclusion that the application of the dynamical speed control can improve the performance ofthe freeway.What we should highlight is that we can make some different speed limit as for different section of road or different size of vehicle with the application of the Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems.In fact, that how the freeway traffic operate is extremely complex, thereby, with the application of the Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems, by adjusting our solution originally, we make it still effective to freeway traffic.6. Improvement of the model6.1 strength and weakness6.1.1 Strength●it is easy for computer simulating and can be modified flexibly to consideractual traffic conditions ,moreover a large number of images make the model more visual.●The result is effectively achieved all of the goals we set initially, meantimethe conclusion is more persuasive because of we used the Bernoulli equation.●We can get more accurate result as we apply Matlab.6.1.2 Weakness●The relationship between traffic flow and safety is not comprehensivelyanalysis.●Due to there are many traffic factors, we are only studied some of the factors,thus our model need further improved.6.2 Improvement of the modelWhile we compare models under two kinds of traffic rules, thereby we come to the efficiency of driving on the right to improve traffic flow in some circumstance. Due to the rules of comparing is too less, the conclusion is inadequate. In order to improve the accuracy, We further put forward a kinds of traffic rules: speed limit on different type of cars.The possibility of happening traffic accident for some vehicles is larger, and it also brings hidden safe troubles. So we need to consider separately about different or specific vehicle types from the angle of the speed limiting in order to reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents, the highway speed limit signs is in Fig.6.1.Fig .6.1Advantages of the improving model are that it is useful to improve the running condition safety of specific type of vehicle while considering the difference of different types of vehicles. However, we found that the rules may be reduce the road traffic flow through the analysis. In the implementation it should be at the 85V speed of each model as the main reference basis.

TitileSummaryDuring cell division, mitotic spindles are assembled by microtubule-based motor proteins1, 2. The bipolar organization of spindles is essential for proper segregation of chromosomes, and requires plus-end-directed homotetrameric motor proteins of the widely conserved kinesin-5 (BimC) family3. Hypotheses for bipolar spindle formation include the 'push−pull mitotic muscle' model, in which kinesin-5 and opposing motor proteins act between overlapping microtubules2, 4, 5. However, the precise roles of kinesin-5 during this process are unknown. Here we show that the vertebrate kinesin-5 Eg5 drives the sliding of microtubules depending on their relative orientation. We found in controlled in vitro assays that Eg5 has the remarkable capability of simultaneously moving at 20 nm s-1 towards the plus-ends of each of the two microtubules it crosslinks. For anti-parallel microtubules, this results in relative sliding at 40 nm s-1, comparable to spindle pole separation rates in vivo6. Furthermore, we found that Eg5 can tether microtubule plus-ends, suggesting an additional microtubule-binding mode for Eg5. Our results demonstrate how members of the kinesin-5 family are likely to function in mitosis, pushing apart interpolar microtubules as well as recruiting microtubules into bundles that are subsequently polarized by relative sliding. We anticipate our assay to be a starting point for more sophisticated in vitro models of mitotic spindles. For example, the individual and combined action of multiple mitotic motors could be tested, including minus-end-directed motors opposing Eg5 motility. Furthermore, Eg5 inhibition is a major target of anti-cancer drug development, and a well-defined and quantitative assay for motor function will be relevant for such developmentsContentTitile (1)Summary (1)1Introduction (1)1.1Restatement of the Problem (1)1.2Background (1)1.1.1Common Solving Technique (1)1.1.2Previous Works (1)1.3Example (1)2Analysis of the Problem (1)2.1Outline of the Approach (1)2.2Basic Assumptions (2)2.3Definitions and Key Terms (2)3Calculating and Simplifying the Model (2)4The Model Results (3)5Validating the Model (3)6Strengths and Weaknesses (3)6.1Strengths (3)6.2Weaknesses (3)7Food for Thought (3)8Conclusion (3)References (4)Appendices (4)Appendix A Source Code (4)Appendix B (4)1Introduction1.1Restatement of the Problem …1.2Background…1.1.1Common Solving Technique…1.1.2Previous Works…1.3Example…2Analysis of the Problem …2.1Outline of the Approach…2.2Basic Assumptions●●●●●2.3Definitions and Key Terms●●●●Table 1.…Symbol Meaning Unit3Calculating and Simplifying the Model …4The Model Results……5Validating the Model…6Strengths and Weaknesses6.1S trengths●●●●6.2W eaknesses●●●●7Food for Thought…8Conclusion….References…AppendicesAppendix A Source CodeHere are the simulation programmes we used in our model as follow.

SummaryChina is the biggest developing country. Whether water is sufficient or not will have a direct impact on the economic development of our country. China's water resources are unevenly distributed. Water resource will critically restrict the sustainable development of China if it can not be properly solved.First, we consider a greater number of Chinese cities so that China is divided into 6 areas. The first model is to predict through division and classification. We predict the total amount of available water resources and actual water usage for each area. And we conclude that risk of water shortage will exist in North China, Northwest China, East China, Northeast China, whereas Southwest China, South China region will be abundant in water resources in 2025.Secondly, we take four measures to solve water scarcity: cross-regional water transfer, desalination, storage, and recycling. The second model mainly uses the multi-objective planning strategy. For inter-regional water strategy, we have made reference to the the strategy of South-to-North Water Transfer[5]and other related strategies, and estimate that the lowest cost of laying the pipeline is about 33.14 billion yuan. The program can transport about 69.723 billion cubic meters water to the North China from the Southwest China region per year. South China to East China water transfer is about 31 billion cubic meters. In addition, we can also build desalination mechanism program in East China and Northeast China, and the program cost about 700 million and can provide 10 billion cubic meters a year.Finally, we enumerate the east China as an example to show model to improve. Other area also can use the same method for water resources management, and deployment. So all regions in the whole China can realize the water resources allocation.In a word, the strong theoretical basis and suitable assumption make our model estimable for further study of China's water resources. Combining this model with more information from the China Statistical Yearbook will maximize the accuracy of our model.。

Why Crime Doesn’t Pay:Locating Criminals Through Geographic ProfilingControl Number:#7272February22,2010AbstractGeographic profiling,the application of mathematics to criminology, has greatly improved police efforts to catch serial criminals byfinding their residence.However,many geographic profiles either generate an extremely large area for police to cover or generates regions that are unstable with respect to internal parameters of the model.We propose,formulate,and test the Gaussian Rossmooth(GRS)Method,which takes the strongest elements from multiple existing methods and combines them into a more stable and robust model.We also propose and test a model to predict the location of the next crime.We tested our models on the Yorkshire Ripper case.Our results show that the GRS Method accurately predicts the location of the killer’s residence.Additionally,the GRS Method is more stable with respect to internal parameters and more robust with respect to outliers than the existing methods.The model for predicting the location of the next crime generates a logical and reasonable region where the next crime may occur.We conclude that the GRS Method is a robust and stable model for creating a strong and effective model.1Control number:#72722Contents1Introduction4 2Plan of Attack4 3Definitions4 4Existing Methods54.1Great Circle Method (5)4.2Centrography (6)4.3Rossmo’s Formula (8)5Assumptions8 6Gaussian Rossmooth106.1Properties of a Good Model (10)6.2Outline of Our Model (11)6.3Our Method (11)6.3.1Rossmooth Method (11)6.3.2Gaussian Rossmooth Method (14)7Gaussian Rossmooth in Action157.1Four Corners:A Simple Test Case (15)7.2Yorkshire Ripper:A Real-World Application of the GRS Method167.3Sensitivity Analysis of Gaussian Rossmooth (17)7.4Self-Consistency of Gaussian Rossmooth (19)8Predicting the Next Crime208.1Matrix Method (20)8.2Boundary Method (21)9Boundary Method in Action21 10Limitations22 11Executive Summary2311.1Outline of Our Model (23)11.2Running the Model (23)11.3Interpreting the Results (24)11.4Limitations (24)12Conclusions25 Appendices25 A Stability Analysis Images252Control number:#72723List of Figures1The effect of outliers upon centrography.The current spatial mean is at the red diamond.If the two outliers in the lower leftcorner were removed,then the center of mass would be locatedat the yellow triangle (6)2Crimes scenes that are located very close together can yield illog-ical results for the spatial mean.In this image,the spatial meanis located at the same point as one of the crime scenes at(1,1)..7 3The summand in Rossmo’s formula(2B=6).Note that the function is essentially0at all points except for the scene of thecrime and at the buffer zone and is undefined at those points..9 4The summand in smoothed Rossmo’s formula(2B=6,φ=0.5, and EPSILON=0.5).Note that there is now a region aroundthe buffer zone where the value of the function no longer changesvery rapidly (13)5The Four Corners Test Case.Note that the highest hot spot is located at the center of the grid,just as the mathematics indicates.15 6Crimes and residences of the Yorkshire Ripper.There are two residences as the Ripper moved in the middle of the case.Someof the crime locations are assaults and others are murders (16)7GRS output for the Yorkshire Ripper case(B=2.846).Black dots indicate the two residences of the killer (17)8GRS method run on Yorkshire Ripper data(B=2).Note that the major difference between this model and Figure7is that thehot zones in thisfigure are smaller than in the original run (18)9GRS method run on Yorkshire Ripper data(B=4).Note that the major difference between this model and Figure7is that thehot zones in thisfigure are larger than in the original run (19)10The boundary region generated by our Boundary Method.Note that boundary region covers many of the crimes committed bythe Sutcliffe (22)11GRS Method onfirst eleven murders in the Yorkshire Ripper Case25 12GRS Method onfirst twelve murders in the Yorkshire Ripper Case263Control number:#727241IntroductionCatching serial criminals is a daunting problem for law enforcement officers around the world.On the one hand,a limited amount of data is available to the police in terms of crimes scenes and witnesses.However,acquiring more data equates to waiting for another crime to be committed,which is an unacceptable trade-off.In this paper,we present a robust and stable geographic profile to predict the residence of the criminal and the possible locations of the next crime.Our model draws elements from multiple existing models and synthesizes them into a unified model that makes better use of certain empirical facts of criminology.2Plan of AttackOur objective is to create a geographic profiling model that accurately describes the residence of the criminal and predicts possible locations for the next attack. In order to generate useful results,our model must incorporate two different schemes and must also describe possible locations of the next crime.Addi-tionally,we must include assumptions and limitations of the model in order to ensure that it is used for maximum effectiveness.To achieve this objective,we will proceed as follows:1.Define Terms-This ensures that the reader understands what we aretalking about and helps explain some of the assumptions and limitations of the model.2.Explain Existing Models-This allows us to see how others have at-tacked the problem.Additionally,it provides a logical starting point for our model.3.Describe Properties of a Good Model-This clarifies our objectiveand will generate a sketelon for our model.With this underlying framework,we will present our model,test it with existing data,and compare it against other models.3DefinitionsThe following terms will be used throughout the paper:1.Spatial Mean-Given a set of points,S,the spatial mean is the pointthat represents the middle of the data set.2.Standard Distance-The standard distance is the analog of standarddeviation for the spatial mean.4Control number:#727253.Marauder-A serial criminal whose crimes are situated around his or herplace of residence.4.Distance Decay-An empirical phenomenon where criminal don’t traveltoo far to commit their crimes.5.Buffer Area-A region around the criminal’s residence or workplacewhere he or she does not commit crimes.[1]There is some dispute as to whether this region exists.[2]In our model,we assume that the buffer area exists and we measure it in the same spatial unit used to describe the relative locations of other crime scenes.6.Manhattan Distance-Given points a=(x1,y1)and b=(x2,y2),theManhattan distance from a to b is|x1−x2|+|y1−y2|.This is also known as the1−norm.7.Nearest Neighbor Distance-Given a set of points S,the nearestneighbor distance for a point x∈S ismin|x−s|s∈S−{x}Any norm can be chosen.8.Hot Zone-A region where a predictive model states that a criminal mightbe.Hot zones have much higher predictive scores than other regions of the map.9.Cold Zone-A region where a predictive model scores exceptionally low. 4Existing MethodsCurrently there are several existing methods for interpolating the position of a criminal given the location of the crimes.4.1Great Circle MethodIn the great circle method,the distances between crimes are computed and the two most distant crimes are chosen.Then,a great circle is drawn so that both of the points are on the great circle.The midpoint of this great circle is then the assumed location of the criminal’s residence and the area bounded by the great circle is where the criminal operates.This model is computationally inexpensive and easy to understand.[3]Moreover,it is easy to use and requires very little training in order to master the technique.[2]However,it has certain drawbacks.For example,the area given by this method is often very large and other studies have shown that a smaller area suffices.[4]Additionally,a few outliers can generate an even larger search area,thereby further slowing the police effort.5Control number:#727264.2CentrographyIn centrography ,crimes are assigned x and y coordinates and the “center of mass”is computed as follows:x center =n i =1x i ny center =n i =1y i nIntuitively,centrography finds the mean x −coordinate and the mean y -coordinate and associates this pair with the criminal’s residence (this is calledthe spatial mean ).However,this method has several flaws.First,it can be unstablewith respect to outliers.Consider the following set of points (shown in Figure 1:Figure 1:The effect of outliers upon centrography.The current spatial mean is at the red diamond.If the two outliers in the lower left corner were removed,then the center of mass would be located at the yellow triangle.Though several of the crime scenes (blue points)in this example are located in a pair of upper clusters,the spatial mean (red point)is reasonably far away from the clusters.If the two outliers are removed,then the spatial mean (yellow point)is located closer to the two clusters.A similar method uses the median of the points.The median is not so strongly affected by outliers and hence is a more stable measure of the middle.[3]6Control number:#72727 Alternatively,we can circumvent the stability problem by incorporating the 2-D analog of standard deviation called the standard distance:σSD=d center,iNwhere N is the number of crimes committed and d center,i is the distance from the spatial center to the i th crime.By incorporating the standard distance,we get an idea of how“close together”the data is.If the standard distance is small,then the kills are close together. However,if the standard distance is large,then the kills are far apart. Unfortunately,this leads to another problem.Consider the following data set (shown in Figure2):Figure2:Crimes scenes that are located very close together can yield illogical results for the spatial mean.In this image,the spatial mean is located at the same point as one of the crime scenes at(1,1).In this example,the kills(blue)are closely clustered together,which means that the centrography model will yield a center of mass that is in the middle of these crimes(in this case,the spatial mean is located at the same point as one of the crimes).This is a somewhat paradoxical result as research in criminology suggests that there is a buffer area around a serial criminal’s place of residence where he or she avoids the commission of crimes.[3,1]That is,the potential kill area is an annulus.This leads to Rossmo’s formula[1],another mathematical model that predicts the location of a criminal.7Control number:#727284.3Rossmo’s FormulaRossmo’s formula divides the map of a crime scene into grid with i rows and j columns.Then,the probability that the criminal is located in the box at row i and column j isP i,j=kTc=1φ(|x i−x c|+|y j−y c|)f+(1−φ)(B g−f)(2B−|x i−x c|−|y j−y c|)gwhere f=g=1.2,k is a scaling constant(so that P is a probability function), T is the total number of crimes,φputs more weight on one metric than the other,and B is the radius of the buffer zone(and is suggested to be one-half the mean of the nearest neighbor distance between crimes).[1]Rossmo’s formula incorporates two important ideas:1.Criminals won’t travel too far to commit their crimes.This is known asdistance decay.2.There is a buffer area around the criminal’s residence where the crimesare less likely to be committed.However,Rossmo’s formula has two drawbacks.If for any crime scene x c,y c,the equality2B=|x i−x c|+|y j−y c|,is satisfied,then the term(1−φ)(B g−f)(2B−|x i−x c|−|y j−y c|)gis undefined,as the denominator is0.Additionally,if the region associated withij is the same region as the crime scene,thenφi c j c is unde-fined by the same reasoning.Figure3illustrates this:This“delta function-like”behavior is disconcerting as it essentially states that the criminal either lives right next to the crime scene or on the boundary defined by Rossmo.Hence,the B-value becomes exceptionally important and needs its own heuristic to ensure its accuracy.A non-optimal choice of B can result in highly unstable search zones that vary when B is altered slightly.5AssumptionsOur model is an expansion and adjustment of two existing models,centrography and Rossmo’s formula,which have their own underlying assumptions.In order to create an effective model,we will make the following assumptions:1.The buffer area exists-This is a necessary assumption and is the basisfor one of the mathematical components of our model.2.More than5crimes have occurred-This assumption is importantas it ensures that we have enough data to make an accurate model.Ad-ditionally,Rossmo’s model stipulates that5crimes have occurred[1].8Control number:#72729Figure3:The summand in Rossmo’s formula(2B=6).Note that the function is essentially0at all points except for the scene of the crime and at the buffer zone and is undefined at those points3.The criminal only resides in one location-By this,we mean thatthough the criminal may change residence,he or she will not move toa completely different area and commit crimes there.Empirically,thisassumption holds,with a few exceptions such as David Berkowitz[1].The importance of this assumption is it allows us to adapt Rossmo’s formula and the centrography model.Both of these models implicitly assume that the criminal resides in only one general location and is not nomadic.4.The criminal is a marauder-This assumption is implicitly made byRossmo’s model as his spatial partition method only considers a small rectangular region that contains all of the crimes.With these assumptions,we present our model,the Gaussian Rossmooth method.9Control number:#7272106Gaussian Rossmooth6.1Properties of a Good ModelMuch of the literature regarding criminology and geographic profiling contains criticism of existing models for catching criminals.[1,2]From these criticisms, we develop the following criteria for creating a good model:1.Gives an accurate prediction for the location of the criminal-This is vital as the objective of this model is to locate the serial criminal.Obviously,the model cannot give a definite location of the criminal,but it should at least give law enforcement officials a good idea where to look.2.Provides a good estimate of the location of the next crime-Thisobjective is slightly harder than thefirst one,as the criminal can choose the location of the next crime.Nonetheless,our model should generate a region where law enforcement can work to prevent the next crime.3.Robust with respect to outliers-Outliers can severely skew predic-tions such as the one from the centrography model.A good model will be able to identify outliers and prevent them from adversely affecting the computation.4.Consitent within a given data set-That is,if we eliminate data pointsfrom the set,they do not cause the estimation of the criminal’s location to change excessively.Additionally,we note that if there are,for example, eight murders by one serial killer,then our model should give a similar prediction of the killer’s residence when it considers thefirstfive,first six,first seven,and all eight murders.5.Easy to compute-We want a model that does not entail excessivecomputation time.Hence,law enforcement will be able to get their infor-mation more quickly and proceed with the case.6.Takes into account empirical trends-There is a vast amount ofempirical data regarding serial criminals and how they operate.A good model will incorporate this data in order to minimize the necessary search area.7.Tolerates changes in internal parameters-When we tested Rossmo’sformula,we found that it was not very tolerant to changes of the internal parameters.For example,varying B resulted in substantial changes in the search area.Our model should be stable with respect to its parameters, meaning that a small change in any parameter should result in a small change in the search area.10Control number:#7272116.2Outline of Our ModelWe know that centrography and Rossmo’s method can both yield valuable re-sults.When we used the mean and the median to calculate the centroid of a string of murders in Yorkshire,England,we found that both the median-based and mean-based centroid were located very close to the home of the criminal. Additionally,Rossmo’s method is famous for having predicted the home of a criminal in Louisiana.In our approach to this problem,we adapt these methods to preserve their strengths while mitigating their weaknesses.1.Smoothen Rossmo’s formula-While the theory behind Rossmo’s for-mula is well documented,its implementation isflawed in that his formula reaches asymptotes when the distance away from a crime scene is0(i.e.point(x i,y j)is a crime scene),or when a point is exactly2B away froma crime scene.We must smoothen Rossmo’s formula so that idea of abuffer area is mantained,but the asymptotic behavior is removed and the tolerance for error is increased.2.Incorporate the spatial mean-Using the existing crime scenes,we willcompute the spatial mean.Then,we will insert a Gaussian distribution centered at that point on the map.Hence,areas near the spatial mean are more likely to come up as hot zones while areas further away from the spatial mean are less likely to be viewed as hot zones.This ensures that the intuitive idea of centrography is incorporated in the model and also provides a general area to search.Moreover,it mitigates the effect of outliers by giving a probability boost to regions close to the center of mass,meaning that outliers are unlikely to show up as hot zones.3.Place more weight on thefirst crime-Research indicates that crimi-nals tend to commit theirfirst crime closer to their home than their latter ones.[5]By placing more weight on thefirst crime,we can create a model that more effectively utilizes criminal psychology and statistics.6.3Our Method6.3.1Rossmooth MethodFirst,we eliminated the scaling constant k in Rossmo’s equation.As such,the function is no longer a probability function but shows the relative likelihood of the criminal living in a certain sector.In order to eliminate the various spikes in Rossmo’s method,we altered the distance decay function.11Control number:#727212We wanted a distance decay function that:1.Preserved the distance decay effect.Mathematically,this meant that thefunction decreased to0as the distance tended to infinity.2.Had an interval around the buffer area where the function values wereclose to each other.Therefore,the criminal could ostensibly live in a small region around the buffer zone,which would increase the tolerance of the B-value.We examined various distance decay functions[1,3]and found that the func-tions resembled f(x)=Ce−m(x−x0)2.Hence,we replaced the second term in Rossmo’s function with term of the form(1−φ)×Ce−k(x−x0)2.Our modified equation was:E i,j=Tc=1φ(|x i−x c|+|y j−y c|)f+(1−φ)×Ce−(2B−(|x i−x c|+|y j−y c|))2However,this maintained the problematic region around any crime scene.In order to eliminate this problem,we set an EPSILON so that any point within EPSILON(defined to be0.5spatial units)of a crime scene would have a weighting of a constant cap.This prevented the function from reaching an asymptote as it did in Rossmo’s model.The cap was defined asCAP=φEPSILON fThe C in our modified Rossmo’s function was also set to this cap.This way,the two maximums of our modified Rossmo’s function would be equal and would be located at the crime scene and the buffer zone.12Control number:#727213This function yielded the following curve (shown in in Figure4),which fit both of our criteria:Figure 4:The summand in smoothed Rossmo’s formula (2B =6,φ=0.5,and EPSILON =0.5).Note that there is now a region around the buffer zone where the value of the function no longer changes very rapidly.At this point,we noted that E ij had served its purpose and could be replaced in order to create a more intuitive idea of how the function works.Hence,we replaced E i,j with the following sum:Tc =1[D 1(c )+D 2(c )]where:D 1(c )=min φ(|x i −x c |+|y j −y c |),φEPSILON D 2(c )=(1−φ)×Ce −(2B −(|x i −x c |+|y j −y c |))2For equal weighting on both D 1(c )and D 2(c ),we set φto 0.5.13Control number:#7272146.3.2Gaussian Rossmooth MethodNow,in order to incorporate the inuitive method,we used centrography to locate the center of mass.Then,we generated a Gaussian function centered at this point.The Gaussian was given by:G=Ae −@(x−x center)22σ2x+(y−y center)22σ2y1Awhere A is the amplitude of the peak of the Gaussian.We determined that the optimal A was equal to2times the cap defined in our modified Rossmo’s equation.(A=2φEPSILON f)To deal with empirical evidence that thefirst crime was usually the closest to the criminal’s residence,we doubled the weighting on thefirst crime.However, the weighting can be represented by a constant,W.Hence,ourfinal Gaussian Rosmooth function was:GRS(x i,y j)=G+W(D1(1)+D2(1))+Tc=2[D1(c)+D2(c)]14Control number:#7272157Gaussian Rossmooth in Action7.1Four Corners:A Simple Test CaseIn order to test our Gaussain Rossmooth(GRS)method,we tried it against a very simple test case.We placed crimes on the four corners of a square.Then, we hypothesized that the model would predict the criminal to live in the center of the grid,with a slightly higher hot zone targeted toward the location of the first crime.Figure5shows our results,whichfits our hypothesis.Figure5:The Four Corners Test Case.Note that the highest hot spot is located at the center of the grid,just as the mathematics indicates.15Control number:#727216 7.2Yorkshire Ripper:A Real-World Application of theGRS MethodAfter the model passed a simple test case,we entered the data from the Yorkshire Ripper case.The Yorkshire Ripper(a.k.a.Peter Sutcliffe)committed a string of13murders and several assaults around Northern England.Figure6shows the crimes of the Yorkshire Ripper and the locations of his residence[1]:Figure6:Crimes and residences of the Yorkshire Ripper.There are two res-idences as the Ripper moved in the middle of the case.Some of the crime locations are assaults and others are murders.16Control number:#727217 When our full model ran on the murder locations,our data yielded the image show in Figure7:Figure7:GRS output for the Yorkshire Ripper case(B=2.846).Black dots indicate the two residences of the killer.In this image,hot zones are in red,orange,or yellow while cold zones are in black and blue.Note that the Ripper’s two residences are located in the vicinity of our hot zones,which shows that our model is at least somewhat accurate. Additionally,regions far away from the center of mass are also blue and black, regardless of whether a kill happened there or not.7.3Sensitivity Analysis of Gaussian RossmoothThe GRS method was exceptionally stable with respect to the parameter B. When we ran Rossmo’s model,we found that slight variations in B could create drastic variations in the given distribution.On many occassions,a change of 1spatial unit in B caused Rossmo’s method to destroy high value regions and replace them with mid-level value or low value regions(i.e.,the region would completely dissapper).By contrast,our GRS method scaled the hot zones.17Control number:#727218 Figures8and9show runs of the Yorkshire Ripper case with B-values of2and 4respectively.The black dots again correspond to the residence of the criminal. The original run(Figure7)had a B-value of2.846.The original B-value was obtained by using Rossmo’s nearest neighbor distance metric.Note that when B is varied,the size of the hot zone varies,but the shape of the hot zone does not.Additionally,note that when a B-value gets further away from the value obtained by the nearest neighbor distance metric,the accuracy of the model decreases slightly,but the overall search areas are still quite accurate.Figure8:GRS method run on Yorkshire Ripper data(B=2).Note that the major difference between this model and Figure7is that the hot zones in this figure are smaller than in the original run.18Control number:#727219Figure9:GRS method run on Yorkshire Ripper data(B=4).Note that the major difference between this model and Figure7is that the hot zones in this figure are larger than in the original run.7.4Self-Consistency of Gaussian RossmoothIn order to test the self-consistency of the GRS method,we ran the model on thefirst N kills from the Yorkshire Ripper data,where N ranged from6to 13,inclusive.The self-consistency of the GRS method was adversely affected by the center of mass correction,but as the case number approached11,the model stabilized.This phenomenon can also be attributed to the fact that the Yorkshire Ripper’s crimes were more separated than those of most marauders.A selection of these images can be viewed in the appendix.19Control number:#7272208Predicting the Next CrimeThe GRS method generates a set of possible locations for the criminal’s resi-dence.We will now present two possible methods for predicting the location of the criminal’s next attack.One method is computationally expensive,but more rigorous while the other method is computationally inexpensive,but more intuitive.8.1Matrix MethodGiven the parameters of the GRS method,the region analyzed will be a square with side length n spatial units.Then,the output from the GRS method can be interpreted as an n×n matrix.Hence,for any two runs,we can take the norm of their matrix difference and compare how similar the runs were.With this in mind,we generate the following method.For every point on the grid:1.Add crime to this point on the grid.2.Run the GRS method with the new set of crime points.pare the matrix generated with these points to the original matrix bysubtracting the components of the original matrix from the components of the new matrix.4.Take a matrix norm of this difference matrix.5.Remove the crime from this point on the grid.As a lower matrix norm indicates a matrix similar to our original run,we seek the points so that the matrix norm is minimized.There are several matrix norms to choose from.We chose the Frobenius norm because it takes into account all points on the difference matrix.[6]TheFrobenius norm is:||A||F=mi=1nj=1|a ij|2However,the Matrix Method has one serious drawback:it is exceptionally expensive to compute.Given an n×n matrix of points and c crimes,the GRS method runs in O(cn2).As the Matrix method runs the GRS method at each of n2points,we see that the Matrix Method runs in O(cn4).With the Yorkshire Ripper case,c=13and n=151.Accordingly,it requires a fairly long time to predict the location of the next crime.Hence,we present an alternative solution that is more intuitive and efficient.20Control number:#7272218.2Boundary MethodThe Boundary Method searches the GRS output for the highest point.Then,it computes the average distance,r,from this point to the crime scenes.In order to generate a resonable search area,it discards all outliers(i.e.,points that were several times further away from the high point than the rest of the crimes scenes.)Then,it draws annuli of outer radius r(in the1-norm sense)around all points above a certain cutoffvalue,defined to be60%of the maximum value. This value was chosen as it was a high enough percentage value to contain all of the hot zones.The beauty of this method is that essentially it uses the same algorithm as the GRS.We take all points on the hot zone and set them to“crime scenes.”Recall that our GRS formula was:GRS(x i,y j)=G+W(D1(1)+D2(1))+Tc=2[(D1(c)+D2(c))]In our boundary model,we only take the terms that involve D2(c).However, let D 2(c)be a modified D2(c)defined as follows:D 2(c)=(1−φ)×Ce−(r−(|x i−x c|+|y j−y c|))2Then,the boundary model is:BS(x i,y j)=Tc=1D 2(c)9Boundary Method in ActionThis model generates an outer boundary for the criminal’s next crime.However, our model does notfill in the region within the inner boundary of the annulus. This region should still be searched as the criminal may commit crimes here. Figure10shows the boundary generated by analyzing the Yorkshire Ripper case.21。

Tittle of paperSummary/Abstract Key words:I.Introduction(引言)Organ transplantation is a preferable treatment for the most serious forms of end-stage diseases. In recent years, advances in medical science and technology have made solid organ transplantation an increasingly successful and common medical procedure, a literal ''second chance at life". Not only does it offer the best hope for complete rehabilitation, but it has also proved to be the most cost-effective of all treatment options, including dialysis. Consequently, more and more people are benefiting from organ transplants and their survival rates are steadily improving. The surgical techniques involved have been mastered for half a century and are now considered as routine. The two main sources of kidneys for transplantation are deceased-donor kidneys and live-donations from family and friends. However, unfortunately, there is a considerable shortage of donor organs, compared to demands. As a matter of fact, efficient matching and allocation of organs donated has become an exigent problem.The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), as the operator of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN), is responsible for transplant organ distribution in the United States. UNOS oversees the allocation of many different types of transplants,including liver, kidney, pancreas, heart, lung, and cornea.Focusing on kidney transplantation, based on UNOS Kidney Allocation Model, we develop a mathematical model for US transplant networks. First, incoming organs are matched with waiting candidates by medical institutions considering the factors as ABO blood compatibility, the degree of recipient major HLA mismatch in order to obtain a matching degree applied on the allocation part. After that, from the patients’perspective, on the basis of linear regression, priority weight is defined by pondering age, disease severity, time on waiting, PRA level, and region. Applying this mechanism of ranking, we realize MWBM (Maximum Weight Bipartite-graph Matching) and SMGS (Stable Matching based on Gale-Shapley algorithm). MWBM focuses on the optimal assignment of donors following the algorithm of bipartite-graph maximum weight matching; SMGS emphasizes the process of exchanges in order to obtain the stable exchanges between donors and candidates on the waiting list.II.T he Description of Problem(问题重述)III.Basic Assumptions●The level of mismatch is only relative to the number of antigens.●The data and information are accurately registered according tothe medical measures●The data and information are refreshed in time according to thestatus of the patients●No differences in the quality of the donor kidneys●The quality of the donor kidney is constantIV.D efinitions and Notations●Kidney transplantation: A kidney transplant is a surgical procedure to implant a healthykidney into a patient with kidney failure.●Prioritization●MD: Matching Degree●PW: Prioritization weight●MWSM: Maximum Weight Bipartite Matching●SMGS: Stable Matching based on Gale-Shapley algorithm或V.ModelsThrough the investigation of US transplantation network, we draw a general picture of the mechanism. With reference to some resources available on the website of UNOS, a flow chart (Figure 1) is developed showing the procedure of the network.Currently, the initial waiting list is composed of patients whoare waiting for a kidney or combined kidney-pancreas transplant. For the first time, the patients are requested to show the correct and scientific information to the US kidney transplant network which is needed for donor-recipient matching, the ranking of patients on the waiting list, and determining the outcome of those transplanted. The patients’waiting lists are composed of initial patients, historical patients and unsuccessful recipient after transplantation. Historical patients refer to registered patients whose status have changed and have an influence on the procedure.A patient is taken off the waiting list when a graft is offered and accepted by that patient or the patient is dead while waiting for a transplant. Unsuccessful recipients refer to the patients who have a bad result of transplantation calling for transplantation again, as it is so-called relistFigure 1.

Water, Water, EverywhereSummaryDue to population growth, economic development, rapid urbanization, large-scale industrialization and environmental concerns water stress has emerged as a real threat. [1]This paper was motivated by the increasing awareness of the need for fresh water since fresh water crisis is already evident in many areas on the world, varying in scale and intensity.Firstly, we testify water demand and supply sequence are stable by means of unit root test, then predict the freshwater demand and supply in 2025 by using ARMA Model and Malthus Population Model .Secondly, we give more concern on four aspects: Diversion Project, Desalinization, Sewage treatment and Conservation of water resources, building some models such as Cost-benefits analysis and Tiered water pricing model. Comparing the cost-benefit ratio, the sewage treatment cost-benefitratio is the smallest--0.142, that is to say it is more cost-efficient.Finally, we use our models to analyze the impacts of these strategies, we can conclude that conservation of water resources is the most feasible.Keywords:Cost-benefit analysis ARMA ModelTiered water pricing modelA Letter to a governmental leadershipFebruary 4, 2013Dear Sir,During the four days working, our team spares no effort using cost and benefits analysis determine water strategy for 2013 about how to use water efficiently to meet the need in 2025. Now, we outline our conclusion to you.z Diversion ProjectThe South-North Water Transfer Project is a multi-decade infrastructure project solved the unbalance of water resource. The cost is 6.2yuan/3m, and it will much higher while the distance is more than 40 kilometers.z DesalinizationDesalinization utilizes the enormous seawater and provides freshwater in a cheaper price. However, interior regions with water scarcity can hardly benefit from it as most desalinization manufacturers located on eastern coastal areas. The cost of production is 5.446 yuan/t, but the transport costs less the cost-efficient competitiveness. The cost can be decreased by using more advanced technology.z Sewage treatmentSewage treatment can relief the environmental impact of water pollution by removing contaminants from water, the cost of Sewage treatment is 0.5yuan/t. z Conservation of water resourcesConservation makes sure of the source of rational use of water. There are several approaches on water resources conservation, the main problem is the lack of supervision. The benefit-cost ratio is between 0.95 and 3.23, and it has a high return-investment ratio.z Each of the above water strategy has its own advantages and disadvantages, we should consider the aspects of economic, physical, environmental, geographical, and technique factors overall, then choose the optimal strategy for different area.Yours sincerely,COMAP #23052ContentI Introduction (2)II Assumptions (3)III Models (3)3.1 The prediction of freshwater shortage in 2025 (3)3.1.1 The prediction of freshwater demand (3)3.1.1.1 The description of basic model (3)3.1.1.2 Model building (4)3.1.1.3 Model prediction (5)3.1.2 The prediction of freshwater supply (7)3.1.2.1 Model building (7)3.1.2.2 Model prediction (8)3.1.3.

And even of the remaining fraction of 1 percent, much of that is not available for our uses. For a detailed explanation, the following bar charts show the distribution of Earth's water: The left-side bar shows where the water on Earth exists; about 97 percent of all water is in the oceans. The middle bar shows the distribution of that 3 percent of all Earth's water that is fresh water. The majority, about 69 percent, is locked up in glaciers and icecaps, mainly in Greenland and Antarctica.[2] Except for the deep groundwater which is difficult to extract, what can be really used in our daily life is just 0.26 percent of all water on earth.Figure 1 The distribution of Earth's waterFreshwater is an important natural resource necessary for the survival of all ecosystems. There is a variety of unexpected consequence due to the lack of freshwater: 6,000 children die every day from diseases associated with unsafe water and poor sanitation and hygiene; Unsafe water and sanitation leads to 80% of all the diseases in the developing world;[3]Species which live in freshwater may be extinct, thus, breaking the food chain balance severely; The development of economic slow down in no small measure.It is with these thoughts in mind, many people think freshwater is very important than ever before.So, how to use freshwater efficiently? What is the best water strategy? Readmore and you will find more.II AssumptionsIn order to streamline our model we have made several key assumptions :1. We chose China as the object study.2. The water consumption of the whole nation could be approximate regardedas the demand of water .3. The Precipitation is in accordance with the supply of water .4.

Firstly, our work is to predict the gap between freshwater demand and supply in 2025. We obtain thefreshwater consumption data from China Statistical Yearbook. 3.1.1 The prediction of freshwater demandWe forecast the per capita demand for freshwater by building the ARMA Model .3.1.1.1 The description of basic modelThe notation ARMA(p, q) refers to the model with p autoregressive termsand q moving-average terms.

ConclusionFrom the above result,we find a serious issue:Table 7Year Demand offreshwater Supply of freshwater Net demand Unit2025 8028.396 5631.275 2397.121(100 million cu.m)In the year 2025, China will face the serious situation of freshwater shortage, the gap will reach 2397.121(100 million cu.m), therefore, in order to avoid this, we need to determine a series strategy to utilize freshwater efficiently.3.2Water strategy3.2.1 Diversion ProjectOn one hand, in view of Figure4, we can get information: Southeast coast is of the maximum precipitation, followed by the northern region, the western least.Figure 4 Precipitation Allocation Map of Major CitiesOn the other hand, in view of Figure 5, we can get information: The northern region and the southern coastal areas have the most water consumption, the western use less.Figure 5 Water Use MapDetailed data see to attached Table8 and Table9.South-to-North Water Diversion ProjectThe South–North Water Transfer Project is a multi-decade infrastructure project of China to better utilize water resources. This is because heavily industrialized Northern China has a much lower rainfall and its rivers are running dry. The project includes a Eastern, a Central and a Western route.Figure 6 The route of South-to-North Water Diversion ProjectHere, we take Western Route Project (WRP) as a representative, analysis the cost and benefits. As the strategic project to solve the problem of poorer water Northwest and North China, WRP will divert water from the upper reach of Yangtze River into Yellow Rive.Cost and benefits analysisThe direct quantitative economic benefits include urban water supply economic benefits, ecological environment water supply economic benefits, and the Yellow River mainstream hydroelectric economic benefits.[5]Urban water supply economic benefits:(1) Calculation MethodIn view of the water shadow price is difficult to determine, the equivalent engineering is not easy to choose, and the lack of water loss index is unpredictable, combined with the stage job characteristics, we select the method of sharing coefficient to calculate the urban water supply economic benefits.(2) Calculation ParametersThe Water consumption quota of per ten thousand yuan industrial output value is based on status quota, the predicted water consumption quota of per ten thousand yuan output value according to reach in 2 0 2 0 is :Lanzhou tom/ ten thousand yuan, gantry to Sanmenxia HeKouZhen river section for 26 3m/ ten thousand yuan. After a comprehensive analysis, set the reach for 20 3industrial water supply benefit allocation coefficient values 2.0 %.(3) Calculation ResultsAccording to (1) and (2), get table 10:Table 10water supply 3.2 billion 3.mproject benefits 20 billion yuan.8yuan /3maverage economic benefit 70z Ecological environment water supply economic benefits:(1) Calculation methodTake Forestry and animal husbandry as the representative, calculate whoseirrigation Economic benefits, and consider the allocation function of water supply. Analyse forestry benefits in reference with the increased wood savings, Animal husbandry in reference with the increased output of animals which were feeded by the incresed irrigation pasture (represented by sheep), both Forestry and animal husbandry account for half of the Ecological environment water supply.(2) Calculation parameters Set the water consumption quotas of Forestry irrigation unified as 233750hm m , the water supply sharing coefficient of Xiang irrigation as 0.60. In the calculation of forestry benefit, the increase of accumulated timber amount is ()a hm m ⋅235.22, timber price is 3300m yuan ; in the calculation of animal husbandry benefit , the increased stocking rates of unit pasture area is 25.22hm , taken a standard sheep price as yuan 260.(3) Calculation ResultsAccording to (1) and (2), the ecological environment water supply economic benefits is 714.1 billion, in which, The Yellow River replenishment economic benefits is 008.1billion yuan.z Hydroelectric economic benefits.(1) Diversion increased energy indicators:The increased electricity indicators is 306.9billion h kw ⋅, capacity enlargement the scale of 241 ten thousand kw .(2) Calculation methodTake the Optimal equivalent alternative engineering cost method, chosen fire electricity as an alternative project which can meet the power requirements of grid electricity equally. The sum of alternative engineering required annualinvestment translation and the annual running costs is increased annual power generating efficiency of the Yellow River cascade hydropower stations. (3) Calculation parametersThe power plant construction investment of kw $450, duration of five years, the investment proportion were 10%, 25%, 35%, 25%, 5%. Both the economic life of mechanical and electrical equipment and the metal structures equipment are taken as 20 years, considering the update ratio as 80% of the original investment. Standard coal price is taken as 160 dollars, standard coal consumption is taken as ()h kw g ⋅350. The fixed run rates take 4.5%, thesocial discount rate is 12%, the hydropower economic useful life of 5 years.(4) Calculation ResultsBy analysis and calculation, the first phase of water regulation produce the hydropower economic benefit is 3.087 billion.z Total economic benefits:Preliminary cost estimates of the project diversionOn the basis of economic nature classification, the total cost includes themachinery depreciation charges, wages and welfare costs, repair costs, thecost of materials,water district maintenance fees, management fees, water fees, interest expense and other . Analysis in the light of various estimates condition, the cost of water diverted into the Yellow River is 31~7.0m yuan c =The cost-benefit rate ()85.8~2.61∈=rc ω (11) 3.2.2 DesalinizationThough diversion project can balance water supply between places one has enough water and the other has water shortage, the costs will higher than desalinization when the distance more than 40 kilometers.Desalinization and comprehensive utilization of the work are increasingly taking centre stage on the problem of solving freshwater scarcity. Many countries and areas devote to optimize an effective way by enhancing the development of science and technology.According to the International Desalination Association, in 2009,14,451 desalination plants operated worldwide, producing 59.9 million cubic meters per day, a year-on-year increase of 12.3%.[6] The production was 68 million 3m in 2010, and expected to reach 120million 3m by 2020; some 40 million 3m is planned for the Middle East.[7]China has built more than 70 sets of sea water desalinization device with the design capacity of 600,000m3 and an average annual growth rate of more than 60%; technology with independent intellectual property rights of a breakthrough in the reverse osmosis seawater membranes, high pressure pumps, devices for energy recovery achieved significant progress, the desalinization rate raises from 99.2% to 99.7%; conditions of industrial development and the desalination market has been basically formed.MethodsDe-salinization refers to any of several processes that remove some amount of salt and other minerals from saline water. More generally, desalination may also refer to the removal of salts and minerals.[8] Most of the modern interest in desalination is focused on developing cost-effective ways of providing fresh water for human use.There are two main methods of desalinization:1. Extract freshwater from saline water: Distillation (Multi-stage flash distillation, Vapor compression distillation, Low temperature multi-effect distillation), Reverse osmosis, Hydrate formation process, Solvent extraction, Freezing.2. Remove salt from saline water: Ion exchange process, Pressure infiltration method, Electroosmosis demolition method.For desalination, energy consumption directly determines the level of the cost of the key. Among the above methods, reverse osmosis is more cost-effective than the other ways of providing fresh water for human use. So, reverse osmosis technology has become the dominant technology in international desalinization of seawater.The following two figures show the working principle diagram of a reverse osmosis system.Figure7 working principle diagram of a reverse osmosis systemCost and benefits analysisTable 12 general costs for a reverse osmosis systemItem Unitprice(yuan/t)Chemicals cost 0.391electric charge 2.85Wages 0.034 Labor costWelfare 0.04 Administrative expenses 0.0008maintenance costs 0.23Membrane replacement cost 0.923Depreciationexpense Fixed assets depreciation0.97expenseTotal costs 5.446Table 13 general benefit for a reverse osmosis systemItem ValueHourly output(t) 10Working hours/day24 Daily output(t)240 Working days/year 365 Yearly output(t)87600 Yearly other benefits(yuan)310980 Unit water other benefits3.55 Water Price(yuan/t)8 Unit water total benefits11.55 Unit water total benefit 55.11=rWater cost-benefit ratio 4715.055.11446.52===r c w (12) 3.2.3 Sewage TreatmentSewage treatment is an important process of water pollution treatment. It uses physical, chemical, and biological ways removing contaminants from water . Its objective is to relief the environment impact of water pollution.This diagram shows a typical sewage treatment process.Figure 8 Sewage treatment flow mapTake Sewage Treatment Plant in east china as an example to analysis the cost and benefit of sewage treatment.Suppose:Sewage treatment scale d t x 100001=,The Sewage Treatment Plant workdays in a year 300=d ,Concession period is twenty to thirty years, generally 251=t years, Construction period is one to three years, generally 32=t years.Operation period = Concession period - Construction period.Cost estimation Table 14 fixed investment estimate c1(ten thousand Yuan)number project ConstructioninvestmentEquipment investment 1 Preprocessing stage38 27 2Biological treatment section 42 134 3End-product stage 11 44 4 Sludge treatment section 6323 5 accessory equipment 456 Line instrument 687 Construction investment 3008 Unexpected expense 809 Other expense 10010 Total investment975 Table 15 Operating expense estimate c2 (ten thousand Yuan)[9]number project expenses1 maintenance expenses 6.52 wages 103 Power Consumption 404Agent cost 10 5 Small meter operating cost 66.56 Amortization of intangibles 127Amortization of Construction 6.6 8Amortization of Equipment 19.8 9Annual total cost 104.9 10 Tons of water operation cost 0.29Annual total investment 15022213=+÷=c c c ten thousand YuanAnnual amount of sewage treatment t x x 3000000100003003001=×=×= Unit sewage investment t yuan t yuan x c c 5.03000000150000034=÷=÷= Benefit analysisSewage mainly comes from domestic sewage(40%), industrial sewage(30%), and the others(including stormwater , 30%)Sewage treatment price: domestic sewage is about t yuan 8.0, industrialsewage is about t yuan 5.1, and other is about t yuan 5.2.Unit sewage treatment approximate price t yuan t yuan t yuan tyuan p 52.1%302%305.1%408.01=×+×+×=Unit Sewage treatment benefit:t yuan p p r 52.321=+= Cost-benefit ratio 142.052.35.043===r c ω (13) 3.2.4 Conservation of water resourcesTo realize the sustainable development of water resources, one of the important aspects is the conservation of water resources. Saving water is thekey of conservation, so, we the construction of water-saving society is the keyof water resources conservation strategy.To construct the water-saving society, we give more concern about two aspects:agricultural water saving and life water saving. Finally, we analysis the cost andbenefit about water-saving society by building model.3.2.4.1 Agricultural water savingStrategic suggestions of water-saving agriculture1. Strengthen the government policies and public finance support2. Mobilizing all social forces to promote water-saving agriculture development3. Innovating enterprises to improve the science and technology4. Suggesting countries to regard water saving as a basic state policy5. Implement the strategy of science and technology innovationwater saving function product research and development as the key point, the research and development of a batch of suitable for high efficiency and low energy consumption, low investment, multi-function water saving and high efficient agriculture key technology and major equipment. Micro sprinkler irrigation water saving technology and equipment is the typical technology.[10] Typical analysis: drip irrigation technologyIrrigation uniformity DU and field irrigation water utilization αE can be expressed as the technical elements of the function :[11]),,,,,,(01co c in t F I S n L q f DU α=),,,,,,,(0SMD t F I S n L q f E co c in αα=RD SMD fc )(θθ−=in q is single discharge into earth,L is (channel) long,n is manning coefficient,0S is tiny terrain conditions,c I is soil infiltration parameters,αF is (channel) cross-sectional parameters,co t is irrigation water supply time,SMD is irrigation soil water deficit value,fc θ is the soil field capacity,θis the soil moisture content,RD is the root zone depth.According to the study we found that the use of modern surface irrigation technology such as sprinkler irrigation, micro spray irrigation and pressure irrigation system, can improve the utilization rate of water to 95%, better than common ground water saving irrigation mode, more than 1/2 ~ 2/3 of water-saving irrigation mode, therefore, advanced water saving technology is very important. 3.2.4.2 Life water saving China is a country with a large population and scarce water , so we should use water more reasonably and effectively.Tiered water pricing modelThe model is for all types of users in certain period to regulate basic water consumption, in the basic consumption, we collect fees by the basic price standard, when actual consumption beyond basic consumption, the beyond part will introduce penalty factor: the more water exceed, the higher punishment rate will be. For actual consumption is less than basic consumption, the user can get additional incentives, encouraging people to save water .[12] Three ladder water price modelWe assume that urban resident’s basic water consumption is 1q , the first stage water price is 1P , the second stage water price is 2P , by analogy, q P is used to express the water price in stage q , model formula is()()⎪⎪⎩⎪⎪⎨⎧−++−+−+=−)(11211121111m m q q q p q q p q p q q p q p q p p L L L (14) From the equation (14), that in the tiered water pricing system, as more price levers are divided, it will be more able to reflect the city water supply’s public property and public welfare, be much beneficial to motive users to save water . On the other hand, much more price levers will be bound to increase the transaction cost of both the water supplier and the water user . Seeing from practical application effects of the current step water price model , Three ladder water price model much meets the actual functional requirements of urban water supply system in our country, the specific pricing method see Figure 9.Figure 9 Taking three step level water price model, can to some extent, Contain people waste the limited water resources , promote enterprises into taking all kinds of advanced technologies to improve the Comprehensive utilization of water resources, and realize the goal of urban water conservation and limited water resources Sustainable and high-efficiency using and saving. In conclude, it’s an effective and feasible strategy at present.Cost-Benefit Analysis of water-saving society construction1.
