Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) are crucial for our understanding of Quantum Field Theory (QFT). Because of their powerful symmetry properties, they play the role of signposts in the space of QFTs. Any method that gives us information about their structure ...
Tropical coral reefs are hotspots of marine productivity, owing to the association of reef-building corals with endosymbiotic algae and metabolically diverse bacterial communities. However, the functional importance of fungi, well-known for their contribut ...
The alkali-silica reaction (ASR), also known as concrete cancer, is one of the most prevalent causes of concrete degradation. In this chemical reaction, amorphous silica in the aggregates reacts with alkalis in the pore solution. By absorbing water, hydrop ...
I did not use WeChat as my main method or main source of materials, but I realized that during my fieldwork in China, I did use WeChat very often to help me collect data, and I see the potential of using WeChat as an increasingly important method for furth ...
This paper summarizes a methodology developed at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne for the neutronic modeling of the CROCUS experimental reactor and proposes solutions to the challenges one may face while modeling a research reactor with a complex g ...
Cette conférence vous amènera à (re)découvrir les multiples facettes de notre exposition à la lumière du jour, à travers l'angle de la recherche. De ses bienfaits physioloiques à la complexité de maîtriser l'éclairage naturel pour assurer notre confort, l' ...
We consider the problem of sampling from a density of the form p(x) ? exp(-f (x) - g(x)), where f : Rd-+ R is a smooth function and g : R-d-+ R is a convex and Lipschitz function. We propose a new algorithm based on the Metropolis-Hastings framework. Under ...
This work is concerned with approximating matrix functions for banded matrices, hierarchically semiseparable matrices, and related structures. We develop a new divide-and-conquer method based on (rational) Krylov subspace methods for performing low-rank up ...
La pièce urbaine considérée se situe au centre de la ville de Bâle et se distingue de son contexte par son échelle, son utilisation et sa conception architecturale. Elle est un collage d’éléments représentatifs de son histoire. Ce projet ambitionne de crée ...
This work develops new algorithms with rigorous efficiency guarantees for infinite horizon imitation learning (IL) with linear function approximation without restrictive coherence assumptions. We begin with the minimax formulation of the problem and then o ...
