Impact of Redundancy on Resilience in Distributed Optimization and Learning

Nirupam Gupta, Shuo Liu

This paper considers the problem of resilient distributed optimization and stochastic learning in a server-based architecture. The system comprises a server and multiple agents, where each agent has its own local cost function. The agents collaborate with ...

Thermal Evolution of Dirac Magnons in the Honeycomb Ferromagnet CrBr3

Bruce Normand, Christian Rüegg, Andreas Martin Läuchli Herzig

CrBr3 is an excellent realization of the two-dimensional honeycomb ferromagnet, which offers a bosonic equivalent of graphene with Dirac magnons and topological character. We perform inelastic neutron scattering measurements using state-of-the-art instrume ...

Semi-Discrete Optimal Transport: Hardness, Regularization and Numerical Solution

Daniel Kuhn, Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh, Bahar Taskesen

Semi-discrete optimal transport problems, which evaluate the Wasserstein distance between a discrete and a generic (possibly non-discrete) probability measure, are believed to be computationally hard. Even though such problems are ubiquitous in statistics, ...

Semi-discrete optimal transport: a solution procedure for the unsquared Euclidean distance case

Valentin Hartmann

We consider the problem of finding an optimal transport plan between an absolutely continuous measure and a finitely supported measure of the same total mass when the transport cost is the unsquared Euclidean distance. We may think of this problem as close ...

Coherent actions by homeomorphisms on the real line or an interval

Yash Lodha

We study actions of groups by orientation preserving homeomorphisms on R (or an interval) that are minimal, have solvable germs at +/-infinity and contain a pair of elements of a certain dynamical type. We call such actions coherent. We establish that such ...

Concrete Dam Displacement Prediction Based on an ISODATA-GMM Clustering and Random Coefficient Model

Zhenzhu Meng

Displacement data modelling is of great importance for the safety control of concrete dams. The commonly used artificial intelligence method modelled the displacement data at each monitoring point individually, i.e., the data correlations between the monit ...

Extensive amenability and an application to interval exchanges

Nicolas Monod, Nicolas Matte Bon

Extensive amenability is a property of group actions which has recently been used as a tool to prove amenability of groups. We study this property and prove that it is preserved under a very general construction of semidirect products. As an application, w ...

Orientation invariant and non-parametric Axon Diameter Distribution mapping using PGSE and regularized discrete linear modeling

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Alessandro Daducci, David Paul Roger Romascano, Muhamed Barakovic, Anna Auria Rasclosa

Axon Diameter Distributions (ADDs) change during brain development and are altered in several brain pathologies. Mapping ADDs non-invasively using dMRI could provide a useful biomarker, but existing methods are either parametric, orientation dependent, sur ...

An anomalous metal-rich phosphogypsum: Characterization and classification according to international regulations

Phosphogypsum is the main waste generated by the phosphate fertilizer industry. Despite the high level of pollutants found in phosphogypsum and the proximity of stacks to cities, there are no specific regulations for the management of this waste. This stud ...

Moments And Growth Indices For The Nonlinear Stochastic Heat Equation With Rough Initial Conditions

Robert Dalang, Le Chen

We study the nonlinear stochastic heat equation in the spatial domain R, driven by space-time white noise. A central special case is the parabolic Anderson model. The initial condition is taken to be a measure on R, such as the Dirac delta function, but th ...

Surge Wave Propagation in a Common Tailrace Channel for Two Large Pumped-Storage Plants

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Martin Peter Bieri, Stéphane Christian Olivier Terrier

Sudden starting and stopping of turbines and pumps lead to highly unsteady flow in tailrace channels of hydropower plants (HPP). Submergence of Pelton turbines and air entrainment in pumps due to surge waves must be avoided by technical measures. The exist ...

Three dimensional flow field at confluent fixed-bed open channels

Sebastián Guillén Ludeña

River confluences are known for their marked 3D patterns and, due to the complexity of local flow features and bed morphology, they require particular consideration. Although there are studies on the flow structure in junctions of two streams, amore detail ...

Comparing connectomes across subjects and populations at different scales

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Stephan Morgenthaler, Alessandra Griffa, Elda Fischi Gomez, Patric Hagmann, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

Brain connectivity can be represented by a network that enables the comparison of the different patterns of struc- tural and functional connectivity among individuals. In the literature, two levels ofstatistical analysis have been con- sidered in comparing ...

Moments, Intermittency, and Growth Indices for Nonlinear Stochastic PDE's with Rough Initial Conditions

Le Chen

In this thesis, we study several stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE’s) in the spatial domain R, driven by multiplicative space-time white noise. We are interested in how rough and unbounded initial data affect the random field solution and the ...

Analytical Footprints: Compact Representation of Elementary Singularities in Wavelet Bases

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Thierry Blu

We introduce a family of elementary singularities that are point-Holder alpha-regular. These singularities are self-similar and are the Green functions of fractional derivative operators; i.e., by suitable fractional differentiation, one retrieves a Dirac ...

Convolution Operators And Homomorphisms Of Locally Compact Groups

Let 1 < p < infinity, let G and H be locally compact groups and let c) be a continuous homomorphism of G into H. We prove, if G is amenable, the existence of a linear contraction of the Banach algebra CVp (G) of the p-convolution operators on G into CVp (H ...
