Removing systematics-induced 21-cm foreground residuals by cross-correlating filtered data

Tianyue Chen

Observations of the redshifted 21-cm signal emitted by neutral hydrogen represent a promising probe of large-scale structure in the universe. However, the cosmological 21-cm signal is challenging to observe due to astrophysical foregrounds which are severa ...

Score Matching Enables Causal Discovery of Nonlinear Additive Noise Models

Volkan Cevher, Paul Thierry Yves Rolland

This paper demonstrates how to recover causal graphs from the score of the data distribution in non-linear additive (Gaussian) noise models. Using score matching algorithms as a building block, we show how to design a new generation of scalable causal disc ...

Sparsely Observed Functional Time Series: Theory and Applications

Tomas Rubin

Functional time series is a temporally ordered sequence of not necessarily independent random curves. While the statistical analysis of such data has been traditionally carried out under the assumption of completely observed functional data, it may well ha ...

Improving sound absorption through nonlinear active electroacoustic resonators

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Hervé Lissek, Xinxin Guo

Absorbing airborne noise at frequencies below 300 Hz is a particularly vexing problem due to the absence of natural sound absorbing materials at these frequencies. The prevailing solution for low-frequency sound absorption is the use of passive narrow-band ...

Modeling time-varying brain networks with a self-tuning optimized Kalman filter

David Pascucci, Gijs Plomp

Brain networks are complex dynamical systems in which directed interactions between different areas evolve at the sub-second scale of sensory, cognitive and motor processes. Due to the highly non-stationary nature of neural signals and their unknown noise ...

Convex Optimization-Based Control Design for Parallel Grid-Connected Inverters

Alireza Karimi, Christoph Manuel Kammer

This paper presents a novel frequency-domain approach toward the control design for parallel grid-connected voltage source inverters (VSIs) with LCL output filters. The proposed method allows the controllers of multiple VSIs to be designed in a single step ...

A Non-linear Filter to Detect Atrial Activation from Intracardiac Electrograms

Jean-Marc Vesin, Sasan Yazdani, Andréa Buttu, Etienne Pruvot

Atrial activation (AA) detection during atrial fibrillation (AF) can be considered as a first step in estimating AF characteristics such as the AF cycle length. The detection of AA from intracardiac electrograms (EGM) remains challenging due to the constan ...

Fringe filtering technique based on local signal reconstruction using noise subspace inflation

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

A noise filtering technique is proposed to filter the fringe pattern recorded in the optical measurement set-up. A single fringe pattern carrying the information on the measurand is treated as a data matrix which can either be complex or real valued. In th ...
