Seeking the new, learning from the unexpected: Computational models of surprise and novelty in the brain

Human babies have a natural desire to interact with new toys and objects, through which they learn how the world around them works, e.g., that glass shatters when dropped, but a rubber ball does not. When their predictions are proven incorrect, such as whe ...

A systematic review of machine learning classification methodologies for modelling passenger mode choice

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel

Machine Learning (ML) approaches are increasingly being investigated as an alternative to Random Utility Models (RUMs) for modelling passenger mode choice. These approaches have the potential to provide valuable insights into choice modelling research ques ...

Distance Learning In Higher Education: Evidence From A Randomized Experiment

Maria Paula Cacault

Using a randomized experiment in a public Swiss university, we study the impact of online live streaming of lectures on student achievement and attendance. We find that (i) attending lectures via live streaming lowers achievement for low-ability students a ...

Modeling synchronization in globally coupled oscillatory systems using model order reduction

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Niccolo' Discacciati

We construct reduced order models for two classes of globally coupled multi-component oscillatory systems, selected as prototype models that exhibit synchronization. These are the Kuramoto model, considered both in its original formulation and with a suita ...

Low-Rank Tensor Approximation for Chebyshev Interpolation in Parametric Option Pricing

Daniel Kressner, Francesco Statti, Kathrin Beatrice Glau

Treating high dimensionality is one of the main challenges in the development of computational methods for solving problems arising in finance, where tasks such as pricing, calibration, and risk assessment need to be performed accurately and in real-time. ...

Human biases in body measurement estimation

Robert West, Venkata Rama Kiran Garimella

Body measurements, including weight and height, are key indicators of health. Being able to visually assess body measurements reliably is a step towards increased awareness of overweight and obesity and is thus important for public health. Nevertheless it ...

A nonparametric method for producing isolines of bivariate exceedance probabilities

Emeric Rolland Georges Thibaud

We present a method for drawing isolines indicating regions of equal joint exceedance probability for bivariate data. The method relies on bivariate regular variation, a dependence framework widely used for extremes. The method we utilize for characterizin ...

Multi-objective Optimization of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell–Gas Turbine Hybrid Cycle and Uncertainty Analysis

François Maréchal, Shivom Sharma, Emanuela Peduzzi, Ayse Dilan Celebi

Chemical process optimization problems often have multiple and conflicting objectives, such as capital cost, operating cost, production cost, profit, energy consumption and environmental impact. There are several conversion technologies that can convert Sy ...

Game Theory Meets Network Security and Privacy

Jean-Pierre Hubaux

This survey provides a structured and comprehensive overview of research on security and privacy in computer and communication networks that use game-theoretic approaches. We present a selected set of works to highlight the application of game theory in ad ...

Capital Supply Uncertainty, Cash Holdings, and Investment

Semyon Malamud, Erwan Morellec, Julien Hugonnier

We develop a model of investment, financing, and cash management decisions in which investment is lumpy and firms face uncertainty regarding their ability to raise funds in the capital markets. We characterize optimal policies explicitly and show that the ...

MAOA-L carriers are better at making optimal financial decisions under risk

Genes can affect behaviour towards risks through at least two distinct neurocomputational mechanisms: they may affect the value assigned to different risky options, or they may affect the way in which the brain adjudicates between options based on their va ...

Bibliometrics as Weapons of Mass Citation - La bibliométrie comme arme de citation massive

Geoffrey Bodenhausen

The allocation of resources for research is increasingly based on so-called ‘bibliometrics’. Scientists arenow deemed to be successful on the sole condition that their work be abundantly cited. This world-wide trendappears to enjoy support not only by gran ...

Modelling price pressure in financial markets

We present experimental evidence that, unlike traditional assumptions in economic theory, security prices do not respond to pressure from their own excess demand. Instead, prices respond to excess demand of all securities, despite the absence of a direct l ...
