Performance and accuracy of cross‐section tracking methods for hydromorphological habitat assessment in wadable rivers with sparse canopy conditions

Giovanni De Cesare, Paolo Perona, Robin Schroff

This article investigates the performance and accuracy of continuous Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) position tracking for hydromorphological surveys, based on a comprehensive river restoration monitoring campaign. The a ...

Optimization Algorithms for Decentralized, Distributed and Collaborative Machine Learning

Anastasiia Koloskova

Distributed learning is the key for enabling training of modern large-scale machine learning models, through parallelising the learning process. Collaborative learning is essential for learning from privacy-sensitive data that is distributed across various ...

Results on Sparse Integer Programming and Geometric Independent Sets

Jana Tabea Cslovjecsek

An integer linear program is a problem of the form max{c^T x : Ax=b, x >= 0, x integer}, where A is in Z^(n x m), b in Z^m, and c in Z^n. Solving an integer linear program is NP-hard in general, but there are several assumptions for which it becomes fixed ...

Expanding computational biochemistry towards complex and non-natural compounds

Anastasia Sveshnikova

In the beginning was the metabolism. The biochemical processes that make life possible transformed the soup of chemicals into the life on Earth we know today. Since then, living organisms have evolved, and life on Earth has become more complex. Living orga ...

Random walks and forbidden minors III: poly(d epsilon(-1))-time partition oracles for minor-free graph classes

Akash Kumar

Consider the family of bounded degree graphs in any minor-closed family (such as planar graphs). Let d be the degree bound and n be the number of vertices of such a graph. Graphs in these classes have hyperfinite decompositions, where, one removes a small ...

Protecting privacy through metadata analysis

Sandra Deepthy Siby

Although encryption hides the content of communications from third parties, metadata, i.e., the information attached to the content (such as the size or timing of communication) can be a rich source of details and context. In this dissertation, we demonstr ...

Comparison of PI and Adaptive Fuzzy Controllers for Position Tracking of Servo System with Variable Loaded BLDC Motor

Hadi Ardiny

In recent years, several industries have widely applied BLDC servomotors for various purposes that they almost need a control system to be accurate and robust. In this paper, we compare an adaptive fuzzy controller and PI controller for BLDC servomotor pos ...

Space-Efficient Representations of Graphs

Jakab Tardos

With the increasing prevalence of massive datasets, it becomes important to design algorithmic techniques for dealing with scenarios where the input to be processed does not fit in the memory of a single machine. Many highly successful approaches have emer ...

Large-scale traffic signal control and multimodal network design

Dimitrios Tsitsokas

Traffic congestion constitutes one of the most frequent, yet challenging, problems to address in the urban space. Caused by the concentration of population, whose mobility needs surpass the serving capacity of urban networks, congestion cannot be resolved ...

Unambiguous DNFs and Alon-Saks-Seymour

Mika Tapani Göös, Siddhartha Jain

We exhibit an unambiguous k-DNF formula that requires CNF width (Omega) over tilde (k(2)), which is optimal up to logarithmic factors. As a consequence, we get a near-optimal solution to the Alon-Saks-Seymour problem in graph theory (posed in 1991), which ...

Vehicle-to-Grid for Reliable Frequency Regulation

Dirk Lauinger

Future low-carbon societies will need to store vast amounts of electricity to stabilize electricity grids and to power electric vehicles. Vehicle-to-grid allows vehicle owners and grid operators to share the costs of electricity storage by making the batte ...

Adaptive majority problems for restricted query graphs and for weighted sets

Doemoetoer Palvoelgyi, Abhishek Methuku, Balázs Keszegh

Suppose that the vertices of a graph G are colored with two colors in an unknown way. The color that occurs on more than half of the vertices is called the majority color (if it exists), and any vertex of this color is called a majority vertex. We study th ...

Atomic subgraphs and the statistical mechanics of networks

Sofia Charlotta Olhede

We develop random graph models where graphs are generated by connecting not only pairs of vertices by edges, but also larger subsets of vertices by copies of small atomic subgraphs of arbitrary topology. This allows for the generation of graphs with extens ...

Privacy and Integrity Preserving Computations with CRISP

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Juan Ramón Troncoso-Pastoriza, Apostolos Pyrgelis, Sylvain Chatel

In the digital era, users share their personal data with service providers to obtain some utility, e.g., access to high-quality services. Yet, the induced information flows raise privacy and integrity concerns. Consequently, cautious users may want to prot ...

Space Efficient Approximation to Maximum Matching Size from Uniform Edge Samples

Slobodan Mitrovic, Mikhail Kapralov, Ashkan Norouzi Fard, Jakab Tardos

Given a source of iid samples of edges of an input graph G with n vertices and m edges, how many samples does one need to compute a constant factor approximation to the maximum matching size in G? Moreover, is it possible to obtain such an estimate in a sm ...

Modeling Network Populations via Graph Distances

Sofia Charlotta Olhede

This article introduces a new class of models for multiple networks. The core idea is to parameterize a distribution on labeled graphs in terms of a Frechet mean graph (which depends on a user-specified choice of metric or graph distance) and a parameter t ...

Simple Realizability of Complete Abstract Topological Graphs Simplified

Jan Kyncl

An abstract topological graph (briefly an AT-graph) is a pair A = (G, X) where G = (V, E) is a graph and X. E2 is a set of pairs of its edges. The AT-graph A is simply realizable if G can be drawn in the plane so that each pair of edges from X crosses exac ...
