Efficient Continual Finite-Sum Minimization

Volkan Cevher, Leello Tadesse Dadi, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis, Ioannis Mavrothalassitis

Given a sequence of functions

f_1,\ldots,f_n

with

f_i:\mathcal{D}\mapsto \mathbb{R}

, finite-sum minimization seeks a point

{x}^\star \in \mathcal{D}

minimizing

\sum_{j=1}^nf_j(x)/n

. In this work, we propose a key twist into the finite-sum minimizat ...

Multiplicity-free Representations of Algebraic Groups

Donna Testerman

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over K. We address the problem of classifying triples (G, H, V ), where H is a proper connected subgroup of G, and V is a finitedimensional ir ...

Chemical characterization of organic aerosols with a focus on biomass burning and mid-infrared spectroscopy

Amir Yazdani

Aerosols play a significant role in the atmosphere through affecting the radiative budget, cloud condensation nuclei activity, and visibility. They also cause adverse health effects leading to premature deaths. A major fraction of aerosols is organic matte ...

Drops: Controlled crystallization of organic crystals and their use as matrix materials for encapsulation of volatiles

Aysu Ceren Okur

Encapsulation techniques open up new possibilities to control the kinetics and location of the release of active ingredients. Despite the progresses achieved to obtain a better control over the dimensions and composition of the capsules, the encapsulation ...

A Majority Lemma for Randomised Query Complexity

Mika Tapani Göös, Gilbert Théodore Maystre

We show that computing the majority of n copies of a boolean function g has randomised query complexity R(Maj∘gⁿ) = Θ(n⋅R ̅_{1/n}(g)). In fact, we show that to obtain a similar result for any composed function f∘gⁿ, it suffices to prove a sufficiently stro ...

Learning music composition with recurrent neural networks

Florian François Colombo

Throughout this thesis, we are interested in modeling music composition. To do so, we study the association of music theory concepts with the learning capabilities of recurrent neural networks. Especially, we explore numerical formalizations of music so th ...

Evaporation of Metals during the Thermal Treatment of Oxide Nanomaterials in Cellulose-Based Matrices

Christian Ludwig

Like conventional material products, waste is the last stage of the life cycle of engineered nanomaterials, which are then incinerated or stabilized before disposal. However, because of their special physical characteristics, the fate of the thermally trea ...

When Is Amplification Necessary for Composition in Randomized Query Complexity?

Mika Tapani Göös

Suppose we have randomized decision trees for an outer function f and an inner function g. The natural approach for obtaining a randomized decision tree for the composed function (f∘ gⁿ)(x¹,…,xⁿ) = f(g(x¹),…,g(xⁿ)) involves amplifying the success probabili ...

A systematic investigation on the bactericidal transient species generated by photo-sensitization of natural organic matter (NOM) during solar and photo Fenton disinfection of surface waters

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis

In this work, the role of dissolved oxygen in the solar and the photo-Fenton-mediated E. coli inactivation process was put under scrutiny. The effect of transient species that were produced in the presence of various natural organic matter isolates (NOM), ...

Efficient geometric integrators for nonadiabatic quantum dynamics. II. The diabatic representation

Jiri Vanicek, Seonghoon Choi, Julien Roulet

Exact nonadiabatic quantum evolution preserves many geometric properties of the molecular Hilbert space. In the first paper of this series ["Paper I," S. Choi and J. Vaníček, J. Chem. Phys. 150, 204112 (2019)], we presented numerical integrators of arbitra ...

Efficient geometric integrators for nonadiabatic quantum dynamics. I. The adiabatic representation

Jiri Vanicek, Seonghoon Choi

Geometric integrators of the Schrödinger equation conserve exactly many invariants of the exact solution. Among these integrators, the split-operator algorithm is explicit and easy to implement but, unfortunately, is restricted to systems whose Hamiltonian ...

Representations and descriptors unifying the study of molecular and bulk systems

Kevin Rossi

Establishing a unified framework for describing the structures of molecular and periodic systems is a long-standing challenge in physics, chemistry, and material science. With the rise of machine learning methods in these fields, there is a growing need fo ...

New Approaches to Artistic Synthesis Relying on Visual Perception

Mahmut Sami Arpa

Artists often take advantage of the limitations of the human visual system to create art that provides new experiences for the observers. Similarly, in this thesis, we explore new computational artistic compositions that create new visual experiences by re ...

Cellular Covers of Local Groups

Jérôme Scherer

We prove that, in the category of groups, the composition of a cellularization and a localization functor need not be idempotent. This provides a negative answer to a question of Emmanuel Dror Farjoun. ...

Microfluidics: A Tool to Control the Size and Composition of Particles

Technical note: Relating functional group measurements to carbon types for improved model-measurement comparisons of organic aerosol composition

Satoshi Takahama, Giulia Ruggeri

Functional group (FG) analysis provides a means by which functionalization in organic aerosol can be attributed to the abundances of its underlying molecular structures. However, performing this attribution requires additional, unobserved details about the ...
