Clustering and Informative Path Planning for 3D Gas Distribution Mapping: Algorithms and Performance Evaluation

Alcherio Martinoli, Chiara Ercolani, Lixuan Tang, Ankita Arun Humne

Chemical gas dispersion can represent a severe threat to human and animal lives, as well as to the environment. Constructing a map of the distribution of gas in a fast and reliable manner is critical to ensure accurate monitoring of at-risk facilities and ...

Exploring quantum perceptron and quantum neural network structures with a teacher-student scheme

Near-term quantum devices can be used to build quantum machine learning models, such as quantum kernel methods and quantum neural networks (QNN), to perform classification tasks. There have been many proposals on how to use variational quantum circuits as ...

Generalization of an Encoder-Decoder LSTM model for flood prediction in ungauged catchments

Olga Fink, Yi Zhang, Peter Molnar, Silvan Ragettli

Flood prediction in ungauged catchments is usually conducted by hydrological models that are parameterized based on nearby and similar gauged catchments. As an alternative to this process-based modelling, deep learning (DL) models have demonstrated their a ...

Dynamic Probabilistic Pruning: A General Framework for Hardware-Constrained Pruning at Different Granularities

Alexandre Schmid, Lizeth Gonzalez Carabarin

Unstructured neural network pruning algorithms have achieved impressive compression ratios. However, the resulting-typically irregular-sparse matrices hamper efficient hardware implementations, leading to additional memory usage and complex control logic t ...

Continual Test-Time Domain Adaptation

Olga Fink, Qin Wang

Test-time domain adaptation aims to adapt a source pretrained model to a target domain without using any source data. Existing works mainly consider the case where the target domain is static. However, real-world machine perception systems are running in n ...

A statistical approach for the automatic identification of the start of the chain of events leading to the disruptions at JET

Alessandro Pau

This paper reports an algorithm to automatically identify the chain of events leading to a disruption, evaluating the so-called reference warning time. This time separates the plasma current flat-top of each disrupted discharge into two parts: a non-disrup ...

Self-training Improves Pre-training for Few-shot Learning in Task-oriented Dialog Systems

Boi Faltings, Fei Mi, Lingjing Kong, Fengyu Cai, Wanhao Zhou

As the labeling cost for different modules in task-oriented dialog (ToD) systems is expensive, a major challenge is to train different modules with the least amount of labeled data. Recently, large-scale pre-trained language models, have shown promising re ...

Target cell-type specificity of a cortico-amygdala long range synaptic connection

Ayah Khubieh

An important function of the brain is to analyze sensory information, and to modulate animal behaviour according to previous experience. During processes of emotional learning, sensory percepts with a reinforcing quality, also called unconditioned stimuli ...

EEG Spatiotemporal Patterns Underlying Self-other Voice Discrimination

Olaf Blanke, Pavo Orepic, Sixto Luis Alcoba Banqueri, Giannina Rita Iannotti, Thomas Koenig

There is growing evidence showing that the representation of the human “self” recruits special systems across different functions and modalities. Compared to self-face and self-body representations, few studies have investigated neural underpinnings specif ...

Structure-property maps with Kernel principal covariates regression

Michele Ceriotti, Guillaume André Jean Fraux, Benjamin Aaron Helfrecht

Data analyses based on linear methods constitute the simplest, most robust, and transparent approaches to the automatic processing of large amounts of data for building supervised or unsupervised machine learning models. Principal covariates regression (PC ...

Mapping urban underground potential in Dakar, Senegal: From the analytic hierarchy process to self-organizing maps

Michael Robert Doyle

This article presents a mapping method that seeks to provide urban planning with a diagnostic overview of the underground resources of an urban area. Resource potentials (for buildable space, groundwater or geomaterial extraction and geothermal energy) ten ...

Interpolatory Rational Model Order Reduction of Parametric Problems Lacking Uniform Inf-Sup Stability

Davide Pradovera

We present a technique for the approximation of a class of Hilbert space--valued maps which arise within the framework of model order reduction (MOR) for parametric partial differential equations, whose solution map has a meromorphic structure. Our MOR str ...

Learning Feature Maps of the Koopman Operator: A Subspace Viewpoint

Colin Neil Jones, Yingzhao Lian

The Koopman operator was recently shown to be a useful method for nonlinear system identification and controller design. However, the scalability of current data-driven approaches is limited by the selection of feature maps. In this paper, we present a new ...

A machine learning approach based on generative topographic mapping for disruption prevention and avoidance at JET

Alessandro Pau

The need for predictive capabilities greater than 95% with very limited false alarms are demanding requirements for reliable disruption prediction systems in tokamaks such as JET or, in the near future, ITER. The prediction of an upcoming disruption must b ...
