On maximum volume submatrices and cross approximation for symmetric semidefinite and diagonally dominant matrices

Daniel Kressner, Stefano Massei, Alice Cortinovis

The problem of finding a k x k submatrix of maximum volume of a matrix A is of interest in a variety of applications. For example, it yields a quasi-best low-rank approximation constructed from the rows and columns of A. We show that such a submatrix can a ...

Daylighting simulation for external Venetian blinds based on HDR sky luminance monitoring with matrix algebraic approach

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

An accurate daylighting simulation can potentially improve the quality of pre-planing buildings and regulating daylighting to achieve the goal of green buildings. However, standard sky models can hardly reproduce real skies in real-time for a specific loca ...

ALS Scheme using Extent-based Constraints for the Analysis of Chemical Reaction Systems

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Michael Amrhein

Multivariate curve resolution via alternating least squares (ALS) is used to resolve the concentration profiles C and the pure component spectra E of S species from the multivariate absorbance data A, assuming the bilinear model ...

Nonbinary Associative Memory With Exponential Pattern Retrieval Capacity and Iterative Learning

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi, Amir Hesam Salavati, Krishna Kumar

We consider the problem of neural association for a network of nonbinary neurons. Here, the task is to first memorize a set of patterns using a network of neurons whose states assume values from a finite number of integer levels. Later, the same network sh ...

Online elemental analysis of process gases with ICP-OES: A case study on waste wood combustion

Christian Ludwig, Marco Wellinger

A mobile sampling and measurement system for the analysis of gaseous and liquid samples in the field was developed. An inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES), which is built into a van, was used as detector. The analytical syste ...

Parameterization Models for Pesticide Exposure via Crop Consumption

An approach for estimating human exposure to pesticides via consumption of six important food crops is presented that can be used to extend multimedia models applied in health risk and life cycle impact assessment. We first assessed the variation of model ...

Effective nonmarket strategies: A model of political capabilities

Bastian Wolfgang Schwark

This paper contributes to the growing literature of firms’ nonmarket strategies. We argue that there is, deduced from the resource-based view, a set of nonmarket capabilities, static as well as dynamic, which is the principal determinant for the effectiven ...

Recognition of generalized network matrices

Antoine Musitelli

In this thesis, we deal with binet matrices, an extension of network matrices. The main result of this thesis is the following. A rational matrix A of size n×m can be tested for being binet in time O(n6m). If A is binet, our algorithm outputs a nonsingular ...

Multimedia and food chain modelling of toxics for comparative risk and life cycle impact assessment

Ralph Rosenbaum

The overall goal of this dissertation is to contribute to the development of best available practice in environmental multimedia fate and multipathway exposure modelling for human health and ecosystem impacts, addressing several important aspects. Environm ...
