On the optimal sampling design for the Graph Total Variation decoder: recovering piecewise-constant graph signals from a few vertex measurements

Compressed Sensing teaches us that measurements can be traded for offline computation if the signal being sensed has a simple enough representation. Proper decoders can exactly recover the high-dimensional signal of interest from a lower-dimensional vector ...

Mirrored Langevin Dynamics

Volkan Cevher, Paul Thierry Yves Rolland, Ya-Ping Hsieh, Ali Kavis

We consider the problem of sampling from constrained distributions, which has posed significant challenges to both non-asymptotic analysis and algorithmic design. We propose a unified framework, which is inspired by the classical mirror descent, to derive ...

Tidal Interactions and Mergers in Intermediate-redshift EDisCS Clusters

Pascale Jablonka

We study the fraction of tidal interactions and mergers (TIMs) with well-identified observability timescales (f(TIM)) in group, cluster, and accompanying field galaxies and its dependence on redshift (z), cluster velocity dispersion (sigma), and environmen ...

The Pristine survey - III. Spectroscopic confirmation of an efficient search for extremely metal-poor stars

Pascale Jablonka, Marc Gentile

The Pristine survey is a narrow-band, photometric survey focused around the wavelength region of the Ca II H&K absorption lines, designed to efficiently search for extremely metal-poor stars. In this work, we use the first results of amedium-resolution spe ...

Two-photon imaging through a multimode fiber

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Edgar Emilio Morales Delgado

In this work we demonstrate 3D imaging using two-photon excitation through a 20 cm long multimode optical fiber (MMF) of 350 mu m diameter. The imaging principle is similar to single photon fluorescence through a MMF, except that a focused femtosecond puls ...

Effect of Heat Current on Magnetization Dynamics in Magnetic Insulators and Nanostructures

Francesco Antonio Vetrò

The term "spin caloritronics" defines a novel branch of spintronics that focuses on the interplay between electron spins with heat currents. In the frame of this research area, this thesis is aimed at investigating the effect of a heat current on magnetiza ...

Exploring Variability in Reflood Simulation Results: an Application of Functional Data Analysis

Andreas Pautz, Damar Canggih Wicaksono, Omar Zerkak

In this paper we followed the functional data analysis (FDA) paradigm to summarize the output of computer code simulating a reflood transient. The paradigm stands on the assumption that the data (code output) is generated by a smooth, albeit complex, proce ...

Qualitative link between work of adhesion and thermal conductance of metal/diamond interfaces

Christian Monachon, Ludger Weber, Efthimios Kaxiras, Georg Schusteritsch

We report Time-Domain ThermoReflectance experiments measuring the Thermal Boundary Conductance (TBC) of interfaces between diamond and metal surfaces, based on samples consisting of [111] diamond substrates with hydrogen or with sp2 carbon surface terminat ...

The role of leptin, melanocortin, and neurotrophin system genes on body weight in anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa

Pierre Magistretti, Kai Wang

Objective: Although low weight is a key factor contributing to the high mortality in anorexia nervosa (AN), it is unclear how AN patients sustain low weight compared with bulimia nervosa (BN) patients with similar psychopathology. Studies of genes involved ...

Multi-factorial models of a carbon fibre/epoxy composite subjected to accelerated environmental ageing

Thomas Gmür, Joël Cugnoni, Enrique René Guzman Solares

Among materials being introduced in the aerospace industry, the carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP) have a place of privilege because of their exceptional stiffness-to-mass ratio. However, the polymer-based matrix is vulnerable to damages by environmen ...

The gradient distribution of Ni ions in cation-disordered Li[Ni1/2Mn3/2]O-4 clarified by muon-spin rotation and relaxation (mu SR)

Martin Mansson

Cation-ordered Li[Ni1/2Mn3/2]O-4 with a P4(3)32 space group (CO-LNMO) and "cation-disordered'' (CDO) LNMO are thought to be the state-of-the-art materials for lithium-ion batteries. However, in contrast to CO-LNMO, the crystal structure and electrochemical ...
