Impact of phylogeny on structural contact inference from protein sequence data

Nicola Dietler, Umberto Lupo, Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol

Local and global inference methods have been developed to infer structural contacts from multiple sequence alignments of homologous proteins. They rely on correlations in amino acid usage at contacting sites. Because homologous proteins share a common ance ...

A structured prediction approach for robot imitation learning

Aude Billard, Iason Batzianoulis, Anqing Duan

We propose a structured prediction approach for robot imitation learning from demonstrations. Among various tools for robot imitation learning, supervised learning has been observed to have a prominent role. Structured prediction is a form of supervised le ...

Novel Methods For Detection And Analysis Of Atypical Aspects In Speech

Julian David Fritsch

Atypical aspects in speech concern speech that deviates from what is commonly considered normal or healthy. In this thesis, we propose novel methods for detection and analysis of these aspects, e.g. to monitor the temporary state of a speaker, diseases tha ...

Fundamental Limits in Statistical Learning Problems: Block Models and Neural Networks

Elisabetta Cornacchia

This thesis focuses on two selected learning problems: 1) statistical inference on graphs models, and, 2) gradient descent on neural networks, with the common objective of defining and analysing the measures that characterize the fundamental limits. In th ...

The Sparsity of Cycle Spinning for Wavelet-Based Solutions of Linear Inverse Problems

Michaël Unser, Rahul Parhi

The usual explanation of the efficacy of wavelet-based methods hinges on the sparsity of many real-world objects in the wavelet domain. Yet, standard wavelet-shrinkage techniques for sparse reconstruction are not competitive in practice, one reason being t ...

Lower-bounds on the Bayesian Risk in Estimation Procedures via f–Divergences

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Adrien Vandenbroucque, Amedeo Roberto Esposito

We consider the problem of parameter estimation in a Bayesian setting and propose a general lower-bound that includes part of the family of f-Divergences. The results are then applied to specific settings of interest and compared to other notable results i ...

Towards JPEG AIC part 3: visual quality assessment of high to visually lossless image coding

Touradj Ebrahimi, Evgeniy Upenik, Michela Testolina

Due to the increasing number of pictures captured and stored every day by and on digital devices, lossy image compression has become inevitable to limit the needed storage requirement. As a consequence, these compression methods might introduce some visual ...
