Generalized gamma distribution

Wyner's common information is a measure that quantifies and assesses the commonality between two random variables. Based on this, we introduce a novel two-step procedure to construct features from data, referred to as Common Information Components Analysis ...

Capacity and Data Complexity in Multidimensional Linear Attack

Serge Vaudenay, Jialin Huang

Multidimensional linear attacks are one of the most powerful variants of linear cryptanalytic techniques now. However, there is no knowledge on the key-dependent capacity and data complexity so far. Their values were assumed to be close to the average valu ...

Snow particle characteristics in the saltation layer

Michael Lehning, Benjamin Andreas Walter

Shadowgraphy was employed to study snow saltation in boundary-layer wind tunnel experiments with fresh, naturally deposited snow. The shadowgraphy method allowed for a temporally and spatially high-resolution investigation of snow particle characteristics ...

Stochastic simulation of intermittent DSD fields in time

Alexis Berne, Marc Schleiss, Joël Jaffrain

A method for the stochastic simulation of (rain)drop size distributions (DSDs) in space and time using geostatistics is presented. At each pixel, the raindrop size distribution is described by a Gamma distribution with two or three stochastic parameters. T ...

Statistical analysis of the current-sharing temperature evolution in Nb3Sn cable-in-conduit-conductors for ITER

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Rainer Wesche, Boris Stepanov, Davide Uglietti

During the test of ITER conductors at nominal conditions, a degradation of the current sharing temperature has been observed after electromagnetic cyclic loading. Rather than focusing on the microscopic phenomena at the origin of the degradation, the degra ...

Dynamic fragmentation of a ring: Predictable fragment mass distributions

Jean-François Molinari, Anthony Christopher Davison, Sarah Levy

We employ a finite element framework, coupled to cohesive elements, to model material decohesion of a uniformly expanding ring. Our study focuses on the average fragment mass, the distribution of fragment masses, and the heaviest fragments. The computed fr ...

Geostatistical simulation of 2D fields of raindrop size distributions at the meso-gamma scale

Alexis Berne, Marc Schleiss

The large variability of the drop size distribution (DSD) in space and time must be taken into account to improve remote sensing of precipitation. The ability to simulate a large number of 2D fields of DSD sharing the same statistical properties provides a ...

Overview of edge electrostatic turbulence experiments on TCV

Jonathan Graves, Richard Pitts, Jan Horacek

Experiments on edge turbulence in the TCV tokamak have been performed for the first time at the beginning of 2003. This paper presents an overview of some of the results obtained, concentrating in particular on two areas: universality of density fluctuatio ...
