A Comparison of optimal measurement-system design with engineering judgement for bridge load testing

Due to conservative approaches in construction design and practice, infrastructure often has hidden reserve capacity. When quantified, this reserve has potential to improve decisions related to asset management. Field measurements, collected through load t ...

Common Information Components Analysis

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Erixhen Sula

Wyner's common information is a measure that quantifies and assesses the commonality between two random variables. Based on this, we introduce a novel two-step procedure to construct features from data, referred to as Common Information Components Analysis ...

Feedback and Common Information: Bounds and Capacity for Gaussian Networks

Erixhen Sula

Network information theory studies the communication of information in a network and considers its fundamental limits. Motivating from the extensive presence of the networks in the daily life, the thesis studies the fundamental limits of particular network ...

Low-Cost Side-Channel Secure Standard 6T-SRAM-Based Memory With a 1% Area and Less Than 5% Latency and Power Overheads

Robert Giterman

Side-channel attacks constitute a concrete threat to IoT systems-on-a-chip (SoCs). Embedded memories implemented with 6T SRAM macrocells often dominate the area and power consumption of these SoCs. Regardless of the computational platform, the side-channel ...

Equilibrium and non-equilibrium furanose selection in the ribose isomerisation network

Paolo De Los Rios, Francesco Piazza, Shiling Liang, Daniel Maria Busiello

The exclusive presence of beta -D-ribofuranose in nucleic acids is still a conundrum in prebiotic chemistry, given that pyranose species are substantially more stable at equilibrium. However, a precise characterisation of the relative furanose/pyranose fra ...

Charge fluctuations from molecular simulations in the constant-potential ensemble

Sara Bonella, Alessandro Coretti

We revisit the statistical mechanics of charge fluctuations in capacitors. In constant-potential classical molecular simulations, the atomic charges of electrode atoms are treated as additional degrees of freedom which evolve in time so as to satisfy the c ...

Nuclear Quantum Effects: Fast and Accurate

Venkat Kapil

Atomistic simulations are a bottom up approach that predict properties of materials by modelling the quantum mechanical behaviour of all electrons and nuclei present in a system. These simulations, however, routinely assume nuclei to be classical particles ...

Mutual Information and Optimality of Approximate Message-Passing in Random Linear Estimation

Nicolas Macris, Mohamad Baker Dia, Jean François Emmanuel Barbier, Florent Gérard Krzakala

We consider the estimation of a signal from the knowledge of its noisy linear random Gaussian projections. A few examples where this problem is relevant are compressed sensing, sparse superposition codes, and code division multiple access. There has been a ...

Adiabatic motion and statistical mechanics via mass-zero constrained dynamics

Sara Bonella, Alessandro Coretti

In recent work [Coretti et al., J. Chem. Phys., 2018, 149, 191102], a new algorithm to solve numerically the dynamics of the shell model for polarization was presented. The approach, broadly applicable to systems involving adiabatically separated dynamical ...

Phase retrieval in high dimensions: Statistical and computational phase transitions

Florent Gérard Krzakala, Lenka Zdeborová, Bruno Loureiro, Bruno Loureiro

We consider the phase retrieval problem of reconstructing a n -dimensional real or complex signal X ⋆ from m (possibly noisy) observations Y μ = | ∑ n i = 1 Φ μ i X ⋆ i / √ n | , for a large class of correlated real and complex random sensing matrices Φ , ...
