Beyond Spectral Gap: The Role of the Topology in Decentralized Learning

Martin Jaggi, Thijs Vogels, Hadrien Hendrikx

In data-parallel optimization of machine learning models, workers collaborate to improve their estimates of the model: more accurate gradients allow them to use larger learning rates and optimize faster. In the decentralized setting, in which workers commu ...

Multi-agent reinforcement learning with graph convolutional neural networks for optimal bidding strategies of generation units in electricity markets

Olga Fink

Finding optimal bidding strategies for generation units in electricity markets would result in higher profit. However, it is a challenging problem due to the system uncertainty which is due to the lack of knowledge of the strategies of other generation uni ...

D-Cliques: Compensating for Data Heterogeneity with Topology in Decentralized Federated Learning

Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Erick Lavoie

The convergence speed of machine learning models trained with Federated Learning is significantly affected by non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) data partitions, even more so in a fully decentralized setting without a central server. In ...

Interaction of lightning-generated electromagnetic fields with overhead and underground cables

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Carlo Alberto Nucci

In this chapter, we discussed the TL theory and its application to the problem of lightning electromagnetic field coupling to transmission lines. After a short discussion on the underlying assumptions of the TL theory, we described seemingly different but ...

A Modular Multilevel Converter with a Clamping Switch for Quasi-Three-Level Operation

Jakub Kucka

The required module capacitances of modular multilevel converters can be significantly reduced in comparison to conventional operation modes when quasi-two-level operation is applied. Unfortunately, the output voltage distortion becomes similar to those of ...

Entanglement Entropy from Nonequilibrium Work

Jonathan D'Emidio

The Renyi entanglement entropy in quantum many-body systems can be viewed as the difference in free energy between partition functions with different trace topologies. We introduce an external field lambda that controls the partition function topology, all ...

Convergences of Regularized Algorithms and Stochastic Gradient Methods with Random Projections

Volkan Cevher, Junhong Lin

We study the least-squares regression problem over a Hilbert space, covering nonparametric regression over a reproducing kernel Hilbert space as a special case. We rst investigate regularized algorithms adapted to a projection operator on a closed subspace ...

Experimental studies of the equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium electronic structure of non-symmorphic topological materials

Gianmarco Gatti

Symmetry and topology are fundamental properties of nature. Mathematics provides us with a general framework to understand these concepts. On one side, symmetry describes the invariance properties of an object for specific transformations. On the other sid ...

Percolation and Internet Science

Emanuele Massaro

Percolation, in its most general interpretation, refers to the “flow” of something (a physical agent, data or information) in a network, possibly accompanied by some nonlinear dynamical processes on the network nodes (sometimes denoted reaction–diffusion s ...

Robust optimization of power grid with distributed generation and improved reliability

Amarasinghage Tharindu Dasun Perera, Zhengchao Wang

Uncertainties of demand, generation and component outage can lead to black-outs in the grid. This study proposes an optimization algorithm (based on Benders Decomposition (BD)) to optimize a Power Transmission System (PTS) that is robust to aforementioned ...

Learning Approach to Delineation of Curvilinear Structures in 2D and 3D Images

Agata Justyna Mosinska

Detection of curvilinear structures has long been of interest due to its wide range of applications. Large amounts of imaging data could be readily used in many fields, but it is practically not possible to analyze them manually. Hence, the need for automa ...
