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. …”

Regression analysis and artificial neural networks for predicting pine species volume in community forests by Wenceslao Santiago-García

“…The regression approach employed seemingly unrelated nonlinear regression (NSUR) to fit simultaneous additive volume systems using both one- and two-variable models. In this approach, volume was modeled as a function of diameter at breast height (d) alone and as a function of both d and total tree height (h). …”
