Multimodal Prediction Framework for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty Outcomes: Integrating Morphological, Musculoskeletal, Finite Element, and Bayesian Causal Models

This thesis aimed to estimate the effect of demographic and biomechanical preoperative variables on total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) outcomes. To achieve this, various biomechanical variables were calculated using a clinical database comprising normal and ...

Convex Computation of Value-at-risk Bounds for Stochastic Processes

Matteo Raphael Tacchi

This article formulates algorithms to upper-bound the maximum value-at-risk (VaR) of a state function along trajectories of stochastic processes. The VaR is upper bounded by two methods: minimax tail-bounds (Cantelli/Vysochanskij-Petunin) and Expected Shor ...

A positivity robust strategy to study effects of switching treatment

Mats Julius Stensrud

In studies of medical treatments, individuals often experience post-treatment events that predict their future outcomes. In this work, we study how to use initial observations of a recurrent event - a type of post-treatment event - to offer updated treatme ...

A Note on Lenses in Arrangements of Pairwise Intersecting Circles in the Plane

Rom Pinchasi

Let F be a family of n pairwise intersecting circles in the plane. We show that the number of lenses, that is convex digons, in the arrangement induced by F is at most 2n - 2. This bound is tight. Furthermore, if no two circles in F touch, then the geometr ...

Lower Bounds on the Bayesian Risk via Information Measures

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Amedeo Roberto Esposito, Adrien Vandenbroucque

This paper focuses on parameter estimation and introduces a new method for lower bounding the Bayesian risk. The method allows for the use of virtually any information measure, including Rényi's α, φ-divergences, and Sibson's α-Mutual Information. The appr ...

Correlation of powers of Hüsler-Reiss vectors and Brown-Resnick fields, and application to insured wind losses

Erwan Fabrice Koch

H & uuml;sler-Reiss vectors and Brown-Resnick fields are popular models in multivariate and spatial extreme-value theory, respectively, and are widely used in applications. We provide analytical formulas for the correlation between powers of the components ...

Estimation and control under uncertainty with application to power systems

Jean-Sébastien Hubert Brouillon

The transition to sustainable energy demands a fundamental redesign of the electrical grid, especially at the distribution level. With the increasing deployment of distributed energy resources, the development of reliable models, accurate state estimation ...

Exploring Defeasibility in Causal Reasoning

Boi Faltings, Antoine Bosselut, Debjit Paul, Shaobo Cui, Mahammad Ismayilzada, Lazar Milikic

Defeasibility in causal reasoning implies that the causal relationship between cause and effect can be strengthened or weakened. Namely, the causal strength between cause and effect should increase or decrease with the incorporation of strengthening argume ...

Maximum Independent Set: Self-Training through Dynamic Programming

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

This work presents a graph neural network (GNN) framework for solving the maximum independent set (MIS) problem, inspired by dynamic programming (DP). Specifically, given a graph, we propose a DP-like recursive algorithm based on GNNs that firstly construc ...

Quantization for Decentralized Learning Under Subspace Constraints

Ali H. Sayed, Stefan Vlaski, Roula Nassif

In this article, we consider decentralized optimization problems where agents have individual cost functions to minimize subject to subspace constraints that require the minimizers across the network to lie in low-dimensional subspaces. This constrained fo ...

Better Trees for Santa Claus

Etienne Michel François Bamas, Lars Rohwedder

We revisit the problem max-min degree arborescence, which was introduced by Bateni et al. [STOC'09] as a central special case of the general Santa Claus problem, which constitutes a notorious open question in approximation algorithms. In the former problem ...

OASIS: Optimisation-based Activity Scheduling with Integrated Simultaneous choice dimensions

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Janody Pougala

Activity-based models offer the potential of a far deeper understanding of daily mobility behaviour than trip-based models. However, activity-based models used both in research and practice have often relied on applying sequential choice models between sub ...

An equilibrated flux a posteriori error estimator for defeaturing problems

Annalisa Buffa, Rafael Vazquez Hernandez, Ondine Gabrielle Chanon

An a posteriori error estimator based on an equilibrated flux reconstruction is proposed for defeaturing problems in the context of finite element discretizations. Defeaturing consists in the simplification of a geometry by removing features that are consi ...

CRAB: Assessing the Strength of Causal Relationships Between Real-World Events

Karl Aberer, Antoine Bosselut, Syrielle Mathilde Marie Montariol, Debjit Paul, Angeliki Romanou, Léo Jules Laugier

Understanding narratives requires reasoning about the cause-and-effect relationships between events mentioned in the text. While existing foundation models yield impressive results in many NLP tasks requiring reasoning, it is unclear whether they understan ...
