Efficient learning of smooth probability functions from Bernoulli tests with guarantees

Volkan Cevher, Ali Kavis, Paul Thierry Yves Rolland

We study the fundamental problem of learning an unknown, smooth probability function via pointwise Bernoulli tests. We provide a scalable algorithm for efficiently solving this problem with rigorous guarantees. In particular, we prove the convergence rate ...

A sequence-dependent coarse-grain model of B-DNA with explicit description of bases and phosphate groups parametrised from large scale Molecular Dynamics simulations

Alessandro Samuele Patelli

We introduce a sequence-dependent coarse-grain model of double-stranded DNA with an explicit description of both the bases and the phosphate groups as interacting rigid-bodies. The model parameters are trained on extensive, state-of-the-art large scale mol ...

Non-perturbative probability distribution function for cosmological counts in cells

Sergey Sibiryakov, Mikhail Ivanov

We present a non-perturbative calculation of the 1-point probability distribution function (PDF) for the spherically-averaged matter density field. The PDF is represented as a path integral and is evaluated using the saddle-point method. It factorizes into ...

Global turbulence features across marginality and non-local pedestal-core interactions

Olivier Sauter, Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Alberto Bottino, Ben McMillan, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana

Spatially non-local aspects of turbulent transport in tokamak plasmas are examined with global gyrokinetic simulations using the ORB5 code. Inspired by very accurate measurements in the TCV tokamak in L-mode, we initialise plasma profiles with constant log ...

Characterization of a radial cylindrical spring using an electromechanical test bench

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Jonathan André Jean-Marie Chavanne, David Moser

The Center for Artificial Muscles of EPFL in Neuchâtel focuses his research on designing a less invasive cardiac assist device based on a dielectric elastomer actuator. The idea is to place a ring around the aorta and activate it to help failing heart pump ...

Rational Krylov for Stieltjes matrix functions: convergence and pole selection

Stefano Massei

Evaluating the action of a matrix function on a vector, that is

x=f(\mathcal M)v

, is an ubiquitous task in applications. When

\mathcal M

is large, one usually relies on Krylov projection methods. In this paper, we provide effective choices for the pole ...

Particle transport at arbitrary timescales with Poisson-distributed collisions

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Fabian Manke

We develop a model to investigate the time evolution of the mean location and variance of a random walker subject to Poisson-distributed collisions at constant rate. The collisions are instantaneous velocity changes where a new value of velocity is generat ...
