Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Numerical Laplace transform and inverse Laplace transform is a challenging task in queueing theory and others probability models. A double transformation approach is used to find stable, accurate, and computationally efficient methods for performing the numerical Laplace and inverse Laplace transform. To validate and improve the inversion solution obtained, direct Laplace transforms are taken of the numerically inverted transforms to compare with the original function. Algorithms provide increasing accuracy as precision level increases. The most promising methods were applied to computational probability models, when there are no closed-form solutions of the Laplace transform inversion. The computational efficiency compared to precision levels is demonstrated for different service models in M/G/1 queuing systems.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
