Do chance encounters between heterogeneous cells shape the outcome of tuberculosis infections?

John McKinney, Ophélie Rutschmann, Chiara Toniolo

The sum of all of the interactions between single bacteria and host cells determines if an infection is cleared, controlled, or progresses at the whole host-organism level. These individual interactions have independent trajectories defined by diverse and ...

MATHICSE Technical Report: A posteriori error estimation for the stochastic collocation finite element approximation of the heat equation with random coefficients

Fabio Nobile, Eva Vidlicková

In this work we present a residual based a posteriori error estimation for a heat equation with a random forcing term and a random diffusion coefficient which is assumed to depend affinely on a finite number of independent random variables. The problem is ...

Stochastic approximation methods for PDE constrained optimal control problems with uncertain parameters

Matthieu Claude Martin

This thesis work focuses on optimal control of partial differential equations (PDEs) with uncertain parameters, treated as a random variables. In particular, we assume that the random parameters are not observable and look for a deterministic control which ...

Entropic Matroids and Their Representation

Emmanuel Abbé

This paper investigates entropic matroids, that is, matroids whose rank function is given as the Shannon entropy of random variables. In particular, we consider p-entropic matroids, for which the random variables each have support of cardinality p. We draw ...

A Data-Driven Approach Based on Multivariate Copulas for Quantitative Risk Assessment of Concrete Dam

Zhenzhu Meng, Yating Hu, Chenfei Shao

Risk assessment of dam's running status is an important part of dam management. A data-driven method based on monitored displacement data has been applied in risk assessment, owing to its easy operation and real-time analysis. However, previous data-driven ...

Shedding Light on the Basis Set Dependence of the Minnesota Functionals: Differences Between Plane Waves, Slater Functions, and Gaussians

Ursula Röthlisberger, Martin Peter Bircher, Pablo Lopez Tarifa

The Minnesota family of exchange-correlation (xc) functionals are among the most popular, accurate, and abundantly used functionals available to date. However, their use in plane-wave based first-principles MD has been limited by their sparse availability. ...

Chebyshev Inequalities for Products of Random Variables

Daniel Kuhn, Napat Rujeerapaiboon, Wolfram Wiesemann

We derive sharp probability bounds on the tails of a product of symmetric non-negative random variables using only information about their first two moments. If the covariance matrix of the random variables is known exactly, these bounds can be computed nu ...

High Dimensional Bayesian Optimization via Additive Models with Overlapping Groups

Volkan Cevher, Paul Thierry Yves Rolland, Jonathan Mark Scarlett, Ilija Bogunovic

Bayesian optimization (BO) is a popular technique for sequential black-box function optimization, with applications including parameter tuning, robotics, environmental monitoring, and more. One of the most important challenges in BO is the development of a ...

A Posteriori Error Estimation for the Stochastic Collocation Finite Element Method

Fabio Nobile, Diane Sylvie Guignard

In this work, we consider an elliptic partial differential equation (PDE) with a random coefficient solved with the stochastic collocation finite element method (SC-FEM). The random diffusion coefficient is assumed to depend in an affine way on independent ...
