In this paper, we study the cultural geography of the Veneto Region on the basis of a pseudo-diffusion approach to the analysis of the inherent semantic spatial data. We find somewhat surprising results, and, in particular, that Venice, indisputably the Region's cultural hub in terms of...

In this paper, we consider the estimation of the optimum factor combination in a response surface model. Assuming that the response function is quadratic concave and there is a linear cost constraint on the factor combination, we attempt to find the optimum design using the trace optimality...
