A Method of Moments Estimator for Interacting Particle Systems and their Mean Field Limit

Andrea Zanoni, Grigorios A. Pavliotis

We study the problem of learning unknown parameters in stochastic interacting particle systems with polynomial drift, interaction, and diffusion functions from the path of one single particle in the system. Our estimator is obtained by solving a linear sys ...

Bibliometric Analysis of Model-Based Systems Engineering: Past, Current, and Future

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Yan Yan, Jinzhi Lu

Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is considered an important approach for understanding multidomain fields and is widely used in complex systems such as aerospace. In this article, a detailed survey of MBSE literature was conducted from its commenceme ...

Weakly nonlinear evolution of stochastically driven non-normal systems

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Yves-Marie François Ducimetière

We consider nonlinear dynamical systems driven by stochastic forcing. It has been largely evidenced in the literature that the linear response of non-normal systems (e.g. fluid flows) may exhibit a large variance amplification, even in a linearly stable re ...

Long-term triggered seismicity on the Mosha fault by Damavand volcano, Iran: Implications on the seismic hazard of Tehran metropolis

Seyyedmaalek Momeni

The seismic history of the Mosha fault, the largest and most active fault of Eastern Tehran metropolis, and its relation to the Damavand active volcano, the highest mountain in the Middle East, is investigated. We deduce that the central Mosha, near the Da ...

Misplaced Trust and Distrust: How Not to Engage with Medical Artificial Intelligence

Marcello Ienca

Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a rapidly increasing role in clinical care. Many of these systems, for instance, deep learning-based applications using multilayered Artificial Neural Nets, exhibit epistemic opacity in the sense that they preclude compre ...

Predictive user-based relocation through incentives in one-way car-sharing systems

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Patrick Stefan Adriaan Stokkink

Car-sharing systems are an attractive alternative to private vehicles due to their benefits in terms of mobility and sustainability. However, the distribution of vehicles throughout the network in one-way systems is disturbed due to asymmetry and stochasti ...

Learning the Exciton Properties of Azo-dyes

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Alberto Fabrizio, Sergio Vela Llausi, Ksenia Briling

The ab initio determination of electronic excited state (ES) properties is the cornerstone of theoretical photochemistry. Yet, traditional ES methods become impractical when applied to fairly large molecules, or when used on thousands of systems. Machine l ...

Pushing the Limits of the Donor-Acceptor Copolymer Strategy for Intramolecular Singlet Fission

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Maria Fumanal Quintana

Donor-acceptor (D-A) copolymers have shown great potential for intramolecular singlet fission (iSF). Nonetheless, very few design principles exist for optimizing these systems for iSF, with very little knowledge about how to engineer them for this purpose. ...

Local Vulnerabilities and Global Robustness of Coupled Dynamical Systems on Complex Networks

Melvyn Sandy Tyloo

Coupled dynamical systems are omnipresent in everyday life. In general, interactions between individual elements composing the system are captured by complex networks. The latter greatly impact the way coupled systems are functioning and evolving in time. ...
