A Continuized View on Nesterov Acceleration

Nicolas Henri Bernard Flammarion, Raphaël Jean Berthier

We introduce the "continuized" Nesterov acceleration, a close variant of Nesterov acceleration whose variables are indexed by a continuous time parameter. The two variables continuously mix following a linear ordinary differential equation and take gradien ...

A Unified Formulation of Gaussian Versus Sparse Stochastic Processes-Part I: Continuous-Domain Theory

Michaël Unser, Pouya Dehghani Tafti

We introduce a general distributional framework that results in a unifying description and characterization of a rich variety of continuous-time stochastic processes. The cornerstone of our approach is an innovation model that is driven by some generalized ...

On the Connection between the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman and the Fokker-Planck Control Frameworks

Fabio Nobile

In the framework of stochastic processes, the connection between the dynamic programming scheme given by the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation and a recently proposed control approach based on the Fokker-Planck equation is discussed. Under appropriate assum ...

The Stationary Behaviour of Fluid Limits of Reversible Processes is Concentrated on Stationary Points

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

Assume that a stochastic process can be approximated, when some scale parameter gets large, by a fluid limit (also called mean field limit", or hydrodynamic limit"). A common practice, often called the ``fixed point approximation" consists in approxima ...

The Analog Formulation of Sparsity Implies Infinite Divisibility and Rules Out Bernoulli-Gaussian Priors

Michaël Unser, Arash Amini, Ulugbek Kamilov

Motivated by the analog nature of real-world signals, we investigate continuous-time random processes. For this purpose, we consider the stochastic processes that can be whitened by linear transformations and we show that the distribution of their samples ...

Interactions with window openings by office occupants

Darren Robinson, Frédéric Haldi

Based on almost seven years of continuous measurements, we have analysed in detail the influence of occupancy patterns, indoor temperature and outdoor climate parameters (temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity and rainfall) on window open ...
