In this paper, we firstly establish a family of curvature invariant conditions lying between the well-known 2-nonnegative curvature operator and nonnegative curvature operator along the Ricci flow. These conditions are defined by a set of inequalities involving the first four eigenvalues of the curvature operator, which are named as 3-parameter ${\lambda}$-nonnegative curvature conditions. Then a related rigidity property of manifolds with 3-parameter ${\lambda}$-nonnegative curvature operators is also derived. Based on these, we also obtain a strong maximum principle for the 3-parameter ${\lambda}$-nonnegativity along Ricci flow.

The original Bates-Watts framework applies only to the complete parameter vector. Thus, guidelines developed in that framework can be misleading when the adequacy of the linear approximation is very different for different subsets. The subset curvature measures appear to be reliable indicators of the adequacy of linear approximation for an arbitrary subset of parameters in nonlinear models. Given the specific mean shift outlier model, the standard approaches to obtaining test statistics for outliers are discussed. The accuracy of outlier tests is investigated using subset curvatures.

The measures of leverage in linear regression has been extended to nonlinear regression models. We consider several curvature measures of nonlinearity in an estimation situation. The relationship between measures of leverage and statistical curvature are explored in nonlinear regression models. The circumstances under which the Jacobian leverage reduces to a tangent plane leverage are discussed in connection with the effective residual curvature of the nonlinear model.

In this research, a lot of triaxial test results (CID) are analyzed to study the curvature characteristics of failure envelope of sand and parametric relationship between shear strength and state parameter by Been and Jefferies. In the conventional triaxial tests, correction for the change of sectional area of a sample and for membrane influence is essential especially in order to determine critical state (or steady state) condition more correctly. Based on the test results, a model to express the shear strength of fine sand as a function of density and stress level is presented and curvature characteristics of shear failure envelope and parametric relationship between state parameter and shear strength parameters are evaluated.

An experimental study is made of turbulent shear flows in a nearly two-dimensional 90.deg. curved duct by using the hot-wire anemometer. The Reynolds normal and shear stresses, triple velocity products, integral length scales, Taylor micro length scales and dissipation length scales are measured and analyzed. For a positive shear at the inlet, the afore-mentioned turbulence quantities are all suppressed. However, when the inlet shear flow is negative, they are augmented, i.e., the convex curvature suppresses the turbulence whereas the concave curvature augments it. It is found that the curvature effects are rather sensitive to the triple velocity products than the Reynolds stresses. The evolution of turbulence under the curvature with the different shear conditions is well described by the modified curvature parameter S' and the non-dimensional development time ${\tau}$.'

An L-curve corner detection method is proposed for the determination of the regularization parameter in optical flow estimation. The method locates the positive peak whose curvature difference from the just right-hand negative valley is the maximum in the curvature plot of the L-curve. while the existing curvature-method simply finds the maximum in the plot. Experimental results show that RMSE of the estimated optical flow is greater only by 0.02 pixels-per-frame than the least in the average sense. The proposed method is also compared with an existing curvature-method and the adaptive pruning method, resulting in the optical flow estimation closest to the least RMSE.

Bates and Watts (1981) have discussed the problems of reparameterizing nonlinear models in obtaining accurate linear approximation confidence regions for the parameters. A similar problem exists with computing confidence curves for fitted values or predictions. The statistical behavior of fitted values does not depend on the parameterization. Thus, as long as the intrinsic curvature is small, standard Wald intervals for fitted values are likely to be sufficient. Accuracy of linear approximation for fitted values is investigated using confidence curves.

Direct comparisons are made between curvature-corrected eddy viscosity models and the present experimental data. The results show that the curvature effects can be quantified through a curvature parameter R$\sub$c/ or S$\sub$c/ and a non-equilibrium value of p/$\varepsilon$. The data reveal a significant dependence of the eddy viscosity on the curvature and strain history for a fluid in a stabilizing curvature field, S$\sub$c/>1.0. Especially, experimental result shows that the eddy viscosity coefficient ratio at S$\sub$c/=3 changes from 10 to -10 although shear rate preserved constant. It is therefore suggested that proper curvature modifications, particularly the strain history effect, must be introduced into current eddy viscosity models for their application to turbulent flows subjected to curvature straining field for a non-negligible period of time.

The Fisher information matrix plays a significant role in statistical inference in connection with estimation and properties of variance of estimators. In this paper, the parameter space of the t-distribution using its Fisher's matrix is de ned. The ${\alpha}$-scalar curvatures to parameter space are calculated.
