Investigating the ball-milled calcined coal gangue on the hydration of limestone blended cement

Lei Xu

Calcined coal gangue (CCG) exhibits promising application potential in limestone-cement binary binders. However, the activity of CCG would possibly be weakened due to the particle agglomeration after calcination. In the present research, we tried to overco ...

Multi-Frequency Tracking via Group-Sparse Optimal Transport

Isabel Haasler

In this letter, we introduce an optimal transport framework for inferring power distributions over both spatial location and temporal frequency. Recently, it has been shown that optimal transport is a powerful tool for estimating spatial spectra that chang ...

Bringing casting to microfabrication: processing and deformation of microcastings

Luciano Borasi

This work extends the range of pathways for the production of metallic microcomponents by downscaling metal casting. This is accomplished by using either of two different molding techniques, namely femtosecond laser micromachining or lithographic silicon m ...

H-1 Detected Relayed Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

David Lyndon Emsley, Pierrick Berruyer, Andrea Bertarello

Recently, it has been shown that methods based on the dynamics of 1 H nuclear hyperpolarization in magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR experiments can be used to determine mesoscale structures in complex materials. However, these methods suffer from low sensiti ...

Monte-Carlo Method for EMF Exposure Distribution Assessment in 5G Base Station

Anja Skrivervik, Tingyong Jiang

This paper proposes a studied case to assess the EMF (electromagnetic field) exposure distribution for a specific deployment scenario. This developed novel approach based on a Monte-Carlo (MC) approach took into account the non-uniform user distribution an ...

Capturing trade-offs between daily scheduling choices

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Janody Pougala

We propose a new modelling approach for daily activity scheduling which integrates the different daily scheduling choice dimensions (activity participation, location, schedule, duration and transportation mode) into a single optimisation problem. The funda ...

Gradient-Based Learning of Discrete Structured Measurement Operators for Signal Recovery

Jonathan Paul Sauder

Countless signal processing applications include the reconstruction of signals from few indirect linear measurements. The design of effective measurement operators is typically constrained by the underlying hardware and physics, posing a challenging and of ...

Byzantine Fault-Tolerant Distributed Machine Learning with Norm-Based Comparative Gradient Elimination

Nirupam Gupta, Shuo Liu

This paper considers the Byzantine fault-tolerance problem in distributed stochastic gradient descent (D-SGD) method - a popular algorithm for distributed multi-agent machine learning. In this problem, each agent samples data points independently from a ce ...

A Dirichlet process mixture model of discrete choice: Comparisons and a case study on preferences for shared automated vehicles

Rico Krüger

This paper i) compares parametric and semi-parametric representations of unobserved heterogeneity in hierarchical Bayesian logit models and ii) applies these methods to infer distributions of willingness to pay for features of shared automated vehicle (SAV ...

Statistical Fatigue Investigation and Failure Prediction of a Healable Composite System

Véronique Michaud, Amaël Maximilien Cohades, Nathan Klaus Hostettler

Fiber reinforced polymers are massively used as an alternative to metals in structural applications. The brittle nature of their matrix, however, makes them more susceptible to crack formation and propagation resulting in costly repair operations and incre ...

Mixing of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo on strongly log-concave distributions 2: Numerical integrators

Oren Rami Mangoubi

We obtain quantitative bounds on the mixing properties of the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm with target distribution in d-dimensional Euclidean space, showing that HMC mixes quickly whenever the target log-distribution is strongly concave and has ...

Computable Bounds on the Exploration Bias

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Ibrahim Issa

Adaptive data analysis is known to introduce bias in reported measurements. Russo and Zou [1] recently introduced an information-theoretic framework to study this problem. Herein, this framework is adopted and new dependence measures are introduced to boun ...

Electrochemical Dynamics of a Single Platinum Nanoparticle Collision Event for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Pekka Eero Peljo, Haiqiang Deng

Chronoamperometry was used to study the dynamics of Pt nanoparticle (NP) collision with an inert ultramicroelectrode via electrocatalytic amplification (ECA) towards hydrogen evolution reaction. First, ECA and dynamic light scattering (DLS) results reveal ...

Unraveling Brittle-Fracture Statistics from Intermittent Patterns Formed During Femtosecond Laser Exposure

Yves Bellouard, Max-Olivier Hongler, Christos Edouardos Athanasiou

Femtosecond-laser-written patterns at the surface of brittle materials may show at random times spontaneous alternations from regular to disordered structures and vice versa. Here, we show that these random transitions carry relevant statistical informatio ...

TiD-Introducing and Benchmarking an Event-Delivery System for Brain-Computer Interfaces

Robert Leeb, Michele Tavella

In this paper, we present and analyze an event distribution system for brain-computer interfaces. Events are commonly used to mark and describe incidents during an experiment and are therefore critical for later data analysis or immediate real-time process ...

Random field-based modeling of size effect on the longitudinal tensile strength of clear timber

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Alireza Farajzadeh Moshtaghin

In the current study, a random field-based size effect model has been proposed for the longitudinal tensile strength of clear timber. Since the failure mode is brittle, the problem is basically an extreme value problem of finding the distribution of minima ...
