Quantile Regression for Longitudinal Functional Data with Application to Feed Intake of Lactating Sows

This article focuses on the study of lactating sows, where the main interest is the influence of temperature, measured throughout the day, on the lower quantiles of the daily feed intake. We outline a model framework and estimation methodology for quantile ...

Iterative removal of sources to model the turbulent electromotive force

Salim Bennouna, Abhijit Bhausaheb Bendre

We describe a novel method to compute the components of dynamo tensors from direct magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations. Our method relies upon an extension and generalization of the standard H & ouml;gbom CLEAN algorithm widely used in radio astronomy to ...

A machine-learning algorithm correctly classifies cortical evoked potentials from both visual stimulation and electrical stimulation of the optic nerve

Diego Ghezzi, Eleonora Borda, Vivien Gaillet, Elodie Geneviève Zollinger

Objective. Optic nerve's intraneural stimulation is an emerging neuroprosthetic approach to provide artificial vision to totally blind patients. An open question is the possibility to evoke individual non-overlapping phosphenes via selective intraneural op ...

Asymptotic learning curves of kernel methods: empirical data versus teacher-student paradigm

Matthieu Wyart, Mario Geiger, Stefano Spigler

How many training data are needed to learn a supervised task? It is often observed that the generalization error decreases as n(-beta) where n is the number of training examples and beta is an exponent that depends on both data and algorithm. In this work ...

Fatigue analysis of unanchored steel liquid storage tank shell-to-base connections during earthquake induced uplift

Alain Nussbaumer, Gary Scott Prinz, Gustavo Cortes

During severe seismic events the base of unanchored steel liquid-storage tanks can uplift, causing large inelastic rotation demands at the shell-to-base connections. With repeated cycles of uplift, these shell-to-base connections are susceptible to low-cyc ...
