Tangent functional connectomes uncover more unique phenotypic traits

Mingkui Wang, Enrico Amico

Functional connectomes (FCs) containing pairwise estimations of functional couplings between pairs of brain regions are commonly represented by correlation matrices. As symmetric positive definite matrices, FCs can be transformed via tangent space projecti ...

Validation of semi-analytical, semi-empirical covariance matrices for two-point correlation function for early DESI data

Cheng Zhao

We present an extended validation of semi-analytical, semi-empirical covariance matrices for the two-point correlation function (2PCF) on simulated catalogs representative of luminous red galaxies (LRGs) data collected during the initial 2 months of operat ...

Towards a multiscale point cloud structural similarity metric

Touradj Ebrahimi, Davi Nachtigall Lazzarotto

Point clouds are effective data structures for the rep- resentation of three-dimensional media and hence adopted in a wide range of practical applications. In many cases, the portrayed data is expected to be visualized by humans. After acquisition, point c ...

Plane Waves Versus Correlation-Consistent Basis Sets: A Comparison of MP2 Non-Covalent Interaction Energies in the Complete Basis Set Limit

Ursula Röthlisberger, Martin Peter Bircher, Justin Villard

Second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) is the most expedient wave function-based method for considering electron correlation in quantum chemical calculations and, as such, provides a cost-effective framework to assess the effects of basis se ...

Unified theory of atom-centered representations and message-passing machine-learning schemes

Michele Ceriotti, Jigyasa Nigam, Guillaume André Jean Fraux, Sergey Pozdnyakov

Data-driven schemes that associate molecular and crystal structures with their microscopic properties share the need for a concise, effective description of the arrangement of their atomic constituents. Many types of models rely on descriptions of atom-cen ...

Brownian half-plane excursion and critical Liouville quantum gravity

Juhan Aru

In a groundbreaking work, Duplantier, Miller and Sheffield showed that subcritical Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) coupled with Schramm-Loewner evolutions (SLE) can be obtained by gluing together a pair of Brownian motions. In this paper, we study the coun ...

Stochastic distributed learning with gradient quantization and double-variance reduction

Sebastian Urban Stich

We consider distributed optimization over several devices, each sending incremental model updates to a central server. This setting is considered, for instance, in federated learning. Various schemes have been designed to compress the model updates in orde ...

A universal signature in the melting of metallic nanoparticles

Kevin Rossi

Predicting when phase changes occur in nanoparticles is fundamental for designing the next generation of devices suitable for catalysis, biomedicine, optics, chemical sensing and electronic circuits. The estimate of the temperature at which metallic nanopa ...

A Covariance Formula For Topological Events Of Smooth Gaussian Fields

Alejandro Rivera

We derive a covariance formula for the class of 'topological events' of smooth Gaussian fields on manifolds; these are events that depend only on the topology of the level sets of the field, for example, (i) crossing events for level or excursion sets, (ii ...
