Studying real-world networks such as social networks or web networks is a challenge. These networks often combine a complex, highly connected structure together with a large size. We propose a new approach for large scale networks that is able to automatic ...
Coupled dynamical systems are omnipresent in everyday life. In general, interactions between
individual elements composing the system are captured by complex networks. The latter
greatly impact the way coupled systems are functioning and evolving in time. ...
The previously reported gel and polymer actuators require external inputs, such as batteries, circuits, electronic circuits, etc., compared with autonomous motions produced by the living organisms. To realize the spontaneous motions, here, we propose to in ...
Clustering is a classic topic in optimization with k-means being one of the most fundamental such problems. In the absence of any restrictions on the input, the best-known algorithm for k-means in Euclidean space with a provable guarantee is a simple local ...
We consider the problem of finding an optimal transport plan between an absolutely continuous measure and a finitely supported measure of the same total mass when the transport cost is the unsquared Euclidean distance. We may think of this problem as close ...
The maximal achievable advantage of a (computationally unbounded) distinguisher to determine whether a source Z is distributed according to distribution P0 or P1, when given access to one sample of Z, is characterized by the statistical distance ...
In this thesis, we developed a research direction that combines the theoretical concepts of complex networks with practical needs and applications in the field of transportation engineering.
As a first objective we analyzed the phenomenon of congestion pr ...
Optical frequency combs have a wide range of applications in science and technology(1). An important development for miniature and integrated comb systems is the formation of dissipative Kerr solitons in coherently pumped high-quality-factor optical micror ...
Maximum-Entropy Distributions offer an attractive family of probability densities suitable for moment closure problems. Yet finding the Lagrange multipliers which parametrize these distributions, turns out to be a computational bottleneck for practical clo ...
