Convergence analysis of option drift rate inverse problem based on degenerate parabolic equation by Miao-miao Song, Zui-cha Deng, Xiang Li, Qiu Cui

“…In this paper, we study the convergence of the inverse drift rate problem of option pricing based on degenerate parabolic equations, aiming to recover the stock price drift rate function by known option market prices. Unlike the classical inverse parabolic equation problem, the article transforms the original problem into an inverse problem with principal coefficients of the degenerate parabolic equation over a bounded region by variable substitution, thus avoiding the error introduced by artificial truncation. …”

Universal Simulation Model of Battery Degradation with Optimization of Parameters by Genetic Algorithm by K. V. Dobrego, I. A. Koznacheev

“…A simple empirical model is presented that does not consider in detail the characteristics of the state of batteries during a separate charge-discharge cycle, and does not include voltaic variables. The model considers the intensity of the current wear of the battery as a function of the state of its charge, temperature, the current of the external circuit and the current of self-discharge, the full charge that has flowed through the battery since the beginning of its operation. …”
