From Polarizability to Effective Permittivity of Time-Varying Materials

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Theodoros Koutserimpas, Mohammad Sajjad Mirmoosa

In this talk, we describe excitation of time-varying dipolar particles (time-modulated meta-atoms) by external time-varying fields from a nonstationary and causal perspective. For a time-harmonic excitation, we introduce a complex-valued function, called t ...

Selection Bias in News Coverage: Learning it, Fighting it

Karl Aberer, Jérémie Rappaz

News entities must select and filter the coverage they broadcast through their respective channels since the set of world events is too large to be treated exhaustively. The subjective nature of this filtering induces biases due to, among other things, res ...
