Generalization of Scaled Deep ResNets in the Mean-Field Regime

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Fanghui Liu

Despite the widespread empirical success of ResNet, the generalization properties of deep ResNet are rarely explored beyond the lazy training regime. In this work, we investigate scaled ResNet in the limit of infinitely deep and wide neural networks, of wh ...

Residual-based attention in physics-informed neural networks

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sokratis Anagnostopoulos

Driven by the need for more efficient and seamless integration of physical models and data, physics -informed neural networks (PINNs) have seen a surge of interest in recent years. However, ensuring the reliability of their convergence and accuracy remains ...

Full-F turbulent simulation in a linear plasma device using a gyro-moment approach

Paolo Ricci, Baptiste Jimmy Frei

Simulations of plasma turbulence in a linear plasma device configuration are presented. These simulations are based on a simplified version of the gyrokinetic (GK) model proposed by Frei et al. [J. Plasma Phys. 86, 905860205 (2020)], where the full-F distr ...

Functional data analysis with rough sample paths?

Victor Panaretos, Neda Mohammadi Jouzdani

Functional data are typically modeled as sample paths of smooth stochastic processes in order to mitigate the fact that they are often observed discretely and noisily, occasionally irregularly and sparsely. The smoothness assumption is imposed to allow for ...

Gyrokinetic simulations of plasma turbulence in a Z-pinch using a moment-based approach and advanced collision operators

Paolo Ricci, Baptiste Jimmy Frei, Antoine Cyril David Hoffmann

The first nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations obtained using a moment approach based on the Hermite-Laguerre decomposition of the distribution function are presented, implementing advanced models for the collision operator. Turbulence in a two-dimensional Z- ...

Localization errors of the stochastic heat equation

David Jean-Michel Candil

In this thesis, we study the stochastic heat equation (SHE) on bounded domains and on the whole Euclidean space

\R^d.

We confirm the intuition that as the bounded domain increases to the whole space, both solutions become arbitrarily close to one another ...

Estimate on the Dimension of the Singular Set of the Supercritical Surface Quasigeostrophic Equation

Maria Carola Colombo, Silja Noëmi Aline Haffter

We consider the SQG equation with dissipation given by a fractional Laplacian of order α

Data-Driven Convergence Prediction of Astrobots Swarms

Denis Gillet, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Matin Macktoobian

Astrobots are robotic artifacts whose swarms are used in astrophysical studies to generate the map of the observable universe. These swarms have to be coordinated with respect to various desired observations. Such coordination\footnote{\z{A coordination sa ...

Is there an analog of Nesterov acceleration for gradient-based MCMC?

Nicolas Henri Bernard Flammarion

We formulate gradient-based Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling as optimization on the space of probability measures, with Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence as the objective functional. We show that an under-damped form of the Langevin algorithm perfor ...

On the nonlinear Dirichlet-Neumann method and preconditioner for Newton's method

Tommaso Vanzan

The Dirichlet-Neumann (DN) method has been extensively studied for linear partial differential equations, while little attention has been devoted to the nonlinear case. In this paper, we analyze the DN method both as a nonlinear iterative method and as a p ...

On the Almost Sure Convergence of Stochastic Gradient Descent in Non-Convex Problems

Volkan Cevher, Ali Kavis, Shaul Nadav Hallak

This paper analyzes the trajectories of stochastic gradient descent (SGD) to help understand the algorithm’s convergence properties in non-convex problems. We first show that the sequence of iterates generated by SGD remains bounded and converges with prob ...

On the asymptotic behavior of the solutions to parabolic variational inequalities

Maria Colombo

We consider various versions of the obstacle and thin-obstacle problems, we interpret them as variational inequalities, with non-smooth constraint, and prove that they satisfy a new constrained Lojasiewicz inequality. The difficulty lies in the fact that, ...

Walkman: A Communication-Efficient Random-Walk Algorithm for Decentralized Optimization

Ali H. Sayed, Kun Yuan

This paper introduces a new algorithm for consensus optimization in a multi-agent network, where all agents collaboratively find a minimizer for the sum of their private functions. All decentralized algorithms rely on communications between adjacent nodes. ...

Convergent momentum-space OPE and bootstrap equations in conformal field theory

Marc Gillioz

General principles of quantum field theory imply that there exists an operator product expansion (OPE) for Wightman functions in Minkowski momentum space that converges for arbitrary kinematics. This convergence is guaranteed to hold in the sense of a dist ...

Hardware/Software Co-Design and Reliability Analysis of Ultra-Low Power Biomedical Devices

Soumya Subhra Basu

Smart health monitoring devices, known as Wireless Body Sensor Nodes (WBSN) are transforming today's health-care landscape, shifting it from traditional hospital-based methods toward more personalized approaches. Their demand is ever-increasing in the mode ...

Avoidance of Convex and Concave Obstacles with Convergence ensured through Contraction

Aude Billard, Lukas Huber

This paper presents a closed-form approach to obstacle avoidance for multiple moving convex and star-shaped concave obstacles. The method takes inspiration in harmonic-potential fields. It inherits the convergence properties of harmonic potentials. We prov ...

Distributed Fault Detection for Interconnected Large-Scale Systems: A Scalable Plug & Play Approach

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate

In this paper, we propose a novel distributed fault detection method to monitor the state of a-possibly large scale-linear system, partitioned into interconnected subsystems. The approach hinges on the definition of a partition-based distributed Luenberger ...

The dynamics of motor learning through the formation of internal models

Camilla Pierella

A medical student learning to perform a laparoscopic procedure or a recently paralyzed user of a powered wheelchair must learn to operate machinery via interfaces that translate their actions into commands for an external device. Since the user’s actions a ...

Sparse Inverse Problems Over Measures: Equivalence Of The Conditional Gradient And Exchange Methods

Armin Eftekhari

We study an optimization program over nonnegative Borel measures that encourages sparsity in its solution. Efficient solvers for this program are in increasing demand, as it arises when learning from data generated by a "continuum-of-subspaces" model, a re ...
