Dynamic inventory control with limited capital and short‐term financing

For most firms, especially the small‐ and medium‐sized ones, the operational decisions are affected by their internal capital and ability to obtain external capital. However, the majority of the literature on dynamic inventory control ignores the firm's financial status and financing issues. An important question that arises is: what are the optimal inventory and financing policies for firms with limited internal capital and limited access to external capital? In this article, we study a dynamic inventory control problem where a capital‐constrained firm periodically purchases a product from a supplier and sells it to a market with random demands. In each period, the firm can use its own capital and/or borrow a short‐term loan to purchase the product, with the interest rate being nondecreasing in the loan size. The objective is to maximize the firm's expected terminal wealth at the end of the planning horizon. We show that the optimal inventory policy in each period is an equity‐level‐dependent base‐stock policy, where the equity level is the sum of the firm's capital level and the value of its on‐hand inventory evaluated at the purchasing cost; and the structure of the optimal policy can be characterized by four intervals of the equity level. Our results shed light on the dynamic inventory control for firms with limited capital and short‐term financing capabilities.Copyright © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

词网络的新闻事件关联建模

互联网上每天都会报道许多新闻事件,为了挖掘各事件间的关系,提出一种新闻事件关联建模方法。该方法首先利用TF-IEF和相邻词合并策略对事件的相关报道集提取关键词,然后综合多种词共现度量窗口对事件关键词的关联关系建模,构建事件关键词关联网络,最后依据事件间共有关键词的程度建立事件关联模型,从而建立事件关联网络。实验表明该方法能够较准确地提取报道集的关键词,较好地发现事件间的关联关系。

试论军语演变“三律”

军语的产生、发展和变化，始终受到军事规律、词汇规律和术语规律的影响和制约。这三个方面规律的综合作用，对军语的语形、语义和语用的演变，产生着积极或消极的影响。任何一个军语在任何一个方面的演变，都可以从领域、词汇和术语这三个方面的规律中寻觅其基本成因。     

A stochastic air combat logistics decision model for Blue versus Red opposition

Technologically advanced aircraft rely on robust and responsive logistics systems to ensure a high state of operational readiness. This paper fills a critical gap in the literature for combat models by closely relating effectiveness of the logistics system to determinants of success in combat. We present a stochastic diffusion model of an aerial battle between Blue and Red forces. The number of aircraft of Blue forces aloft and ready to be aloft on combat missions is limited by the maximum number of assigned aircraft, the reliability of aircraft subsystems, and the logistic system's ability to repair and replenish those subsystems. Our parsimonious model can illustrate important trade‐offs between logistics decision variables and operational success.     

基于比较语言的军民融合式装备维修保障风险评估

针对地方维修商参与部队装备维修保障给军方带来诸多风险的问题，系统分析了军民融合式装备维修保障存在的风险因素，提出了一种基于比较语言表达的风险评估模型。将比较语言表达式转换为犹豫模糊语言术语集（HFLTS），并计算出由梯形模糊隶属函数表示的 HFLTS 的模糊包络，最后应用双基点法进行维修商的选择决策。通过实例验证了模型的有效性。     

信源数动态变化的一种稳健超定盲分离算法

针对大多数现有盲分离算法都假定信源数已知,分析了信源数未知且动态变化时的超定盲分离(接收天线数多于信源数)算法,通过奇异值分解在线估计信源个数,并修正自适应神经网络的维数。文章在经典Cichocki-Unbenauen算法中加入动量项,设置可变步长,使分离性能得到较大的改进,同时避免训练陷入局部最小。与文献[1]新提出的ANA算法相比,仿真结果证明本文算法具有更快的收敛速度和更小的稳态误差。     

潜射巡航导弹现在点攻击捕获概率计算

由于潜艇探测设备所获得的目标方位和距离信息存在误差,造成目标初始位置在一定的区域内存在散布情况,分析了潜射导弹在攻击水面舰艇时目标的散布情况,给出了目标散布区域的表示方法,根据巡航导弹搜捕目标的原理,给出导弹捕获散布目标的概率计算模型,并进一步探讨导弹齐射对散布目标的捕获情况,可为海战中导弹攻击方式的选择和导弹优化使用提供辅助决策.

Amphetamines,Cognitive Enhancement and their Implications for Medical Military Ethics

ABSTRACT

The growing area of military bio-technologies, especially the use of cogniceuticals, raises several ethical concerns for military physicians. These include the role of military physicians in prescribing amphetamines whose long-term effects are largely unknown, and the possible undermining of the ethic of “do no harm,” since amphetamines may diminish a soldier’s moral responsibility. Below, we outline some important questions relating to the ethics of amphetamines and medical military physicians.
