Preconditioners for robust optimal control problems under uncertainty

The discretization of robust quadratic optimal control problems under uncertainty using the finite element method and the stochastic collocation method leads to large saddle-point systems, which are fully coupled across the random realizations. Despite its ...

A Wasserstein-based measure of conditional dependence

Seyed Jalal Etesami, Negar Kiyavash, Kun Zhang

Measuring conditional dependencies among the variables of a network is of great interest to many disciplines. This paper studies some shortcomings of the existing dependency measures in detecting direct causal influences or their lack of ability for group ...

fGOT: Graph Distances Based on Filters and Optimal Transport

Pascal Frossard, Giovanni Chierchia, Hermina Petric Maretic, Mireille El Gheche

Graph comparison deals with identifying similarities and dissimilarities between graphs. A major obstacle is the unknown alignment of graphs, as well as the lack of accurate and inexpensive comparison metrics. In this work we introduce the filter graph dis ...

Considerations on the partial safety factor format for reinforced concrete structures accounting for multiple failure modes

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Qianhui Yu

The increasing usage of nonlinear analyses for the design of reinforced concrete structures and the necessity of codes of practice to provide a consistent safety format for them is one of the challenges that new generations of codes of practice are facing. ...

Self-Structuring Of Cellular And Channel Type In Complex System Dynamics In The Framework Of Scale Relativity Theory

Maria-Alexandra Paun

In the framework of Scale Relativity Theory, by analyzing dynamics of complex system structural units based on multifractal curves, both Schrodinger and Madelung approaches are functional and complementary. The Madelung selected approach involve synchronou ...

A birth-death-migration model for life in astrophysical environments

Claudio Grimaldi

To assess the number of life-bearing worlds in astrophysical environments, it is necessary to take the intertwined processes of abiogenesis (birth), extinction (death), and transfer of life (migration) into account. We construct a mathematical model that i ...

Learning from demonstration using products of experts: Applications to manipulation and task prioritization

Sylvain Calinon, Emmanuel Pignat

Probability distributions are key components of many learning from demonstration (LfD) approaches, with the spaces chosen to represent tasks playing a central role. Although the robot configuration is defined by its joint angles, end-effector poses are oft ...

Quantum conformance test

Marco Genovese, Elena Losero

We introduce a protocol addressing the conformance test problem, which consists in determining whether a process under test conforms to a reference one. We consider a process to be characterized by the set of end products it produces, which is generated ac ...

Product of experts for robot learning from demonstration

Emmanuel Pignat

Adaptability and ease of programming are key features necessary for a wider spread of robotics in factories and everyday assistance. Learning from demonstration (LfD) is an approach to address this problem. It aims to develop algorithms and interfaces such ...

Ergodic Exploration Using Tensor Train: Applications in Insertion Tasks

Sylvain Calinon, Suhan Narayana Shetty

In robotics, ergodic control extends the tracking principle by specifying a probability distribution over an area to cover instead of a trajectory to track. The original problem is formulated as a spectral multiscale coverage problem, typically requiring t ...
