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

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 ...

A convex set of robust D—stabilizing controllers using Cauchy's argument principle

Alireza Karimi, Philippe Louis Schuchert

A new approach is presented to obtain a convex set of robust D—stabilizing fixed structure controllers, relying on Cauchy's argument principle. A convex set of D—stabilizing controllers around an initial D—stabilizing controller for a multi-model set is re ...

HyperLogLog: Exponentially Bad in Adversarial Settings

Mathilde Aliénor Raynal

Computing the count of distinct elements in large data sets is a common task but naive approaches are memory-expensive. The HyperLogLog (HLL) algorithm (Flajolet et al., 2007) estimates a data set's cardinality while using significantly less memory than a ...

Positive moments for scattering amplitudes

Riccardo Rattazzi, Francesco Riva, Marc Riembau Saperas, Brando Bellazzini

We find the complete set of conditions satisfied by the forward 2 -> 2 scattering amplitude in unitary and causal theories. These are based on an infinite set of energy dependent quantities (the arcs) which are dispersively expressed as moments of a positi ...

Localization of Electromagnetic Interference Sources Using a Time-Reversal Cavity

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Hamidreza Karami

In this article, we propose and implement a novel technique to locate electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources using the concept of time-reversal (TR) cavity. We show in an intuitive manner that reflections from the surfaces of a cavity can emulate an in ...

Capacitive sensor to monitor the level of drug inside an injector pen

Sylvain Paul Fernand Joly

Diabete is a disease which is spreading faster than ever, impacting now a larger population. Patients suffering from this disease need the injection of insulin to control extracellular sugar levels. Pharmaceutical companies developed injector pens to allow ...

Graph-based regularization of inverse problems in imaging

Mattia Rossi

As of today, the extension of the human visual capabilities to machines remains both a cornerstone and an open challenge in the attempt to develop intelligent systems. On the one hand, the development of more and more sophisticated imaging devices, capable ...

Electromagnetic Time Reversal: Theory, Application to Fault Location in Power Networks and Experimental Validation

Zhaoyang Wang

The time-reversal invariance is readily described and universally embodied in most laws of nature, either in a strict or in a soft sense. Based on this underlying physical principle, time-reversal theory has been theoretically and experimentally studied in ...

A pathwise approach to the extinction of branching processes with countably many types

Sophie Myriam Hautphenne

We consider the extinction events of Galton-Watson processes with countably infinitely many types. In particular, we construct truncated and augmented Galton-Watson processes with finite but increasing sets of types. A pathwise approach is then used to sho ...

Continuity Of Multimarginal Optimal Transport With Repulsive Cost

Maria Carola Colombo, Maria Colombo, Federico Stra

We provide sharp conditions for the finiteness and the continuity of multimarginal optimal transport with repulsive cost, expressed in terms of a suitable concentration property of the measure. To achieve this result, we analyze the Kantorovich potentials ...

Designing Gabor windows using convex optimization

Nathanaël Perraudin

Redundant Gabor frames admit an infinite number of dual frames, yet only the canonical dual Gabor system, constructed from the minimal l(2)-norm dual window, is widely used. This window function however, might lack desirable properties, e. g. good time-fre ...

Exact simulation of max-stable processes

Sebastian Engelke, Clément Dombry

Max-stable processes play an important role as models for spatial extreme events. Their complex structure as the pointwise maximum over an infinite number of random functions makes their simulation difficult. Algorithms based on finite approximations are o ...

Sampling Models in Light Fields

Zhou Xue

What is the actual information contained in light rays filling the 3-D world? Leonardo da Vinci saw the world as an infinite number of radiant pyramids caused by the objects located in it. Nowadays, the radiant pyramid is usually described as a set of ligh ...

A Statistical Approach To The Inverse Problem In Magnetoencephalography

Zhigang Yao

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is an imaging technique used to measure the magnetic field outside the human head produced by the electrical activity inside the brain. The MEG inverse problem, identifying the location of the electrical sources from the magnet ...

Odd linking and bifurcation in gaps: the weakly indefinite case

In this paper, we consider nonlinear Schrodinger equations of the following type: -Delta u(x) + V (x) u(x) -q(x)|u(x)|sigma u(x) =lambda u(x), x is an element of R-N, u is an element of H-1(R-N) \ {0}, where N >= 2 and sigma > 0. We concentrate on situatio ...

On the longitudinal optimal perturbations to inviscid plane shear flow: formal solution and asymptotic approximation

Cristobal Manuel Arratia Martinez

We study the longitudinal linear optimal perturbations (which maximize the energy gain up to a prescribed time T) to inviscid parallel shear flow, which present unbounded energy growth due to the lift-up mechanism. Using the phase invariance with respect t ...

On equalities involving integrals of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function and equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis

Serguei Sekatski

By using the generalized Littlewood theorem about a contour integral involving the logarithm of an analytic function, we show how an infinite number of integral equalities involving integrals of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function and equivalent to ...

On Sphere-Filling Ropes

Henryk Gerlach

What is the longest rope on the unit sphere? Intuition tells us that the answer to this packing problem depends on the rope's thickness. For a countably infinite number of prescribed thickness values we construct and classify all solution curves. The simpl ...

Ordered Sets in the Calculus of Data Structures

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Ruzica Piskac

Our goal is to identify families of relations that are useful for reasoning about software. We describe such families using decidable quantifier-free classes of logical constraints with a rich set of operations. A key challenge is to define such classes of ...

Top-Down vs Bottom-Up Model-Based Methodologies for Distributed Control: A Comparative Experimental Study

Alcherio Martinoli, William Christopher Evans, Grégory Mermoud, Utkarsh Upadhyay

Model-based synthesis of distributed controllers for multi-robot systems is commonly approached in either a top-down or bottom-up fashion. In this paper, we investigate the experimental challenges of both approaches, with a special emphasis on resource-con ...
