Double Quasi-Poisson Algebras are Pre-Calabi-Yau

In this article, we prove that double quasi-Poisson algebras, which are noncommutative analogues of quasi-Poisson manifolds, naturally give rise to pre-Calabi-Yau algebras. This extends one of the main results in [11], where a correspondence between certai ...

Timing is Everything

Karen Adam

In this thesis, timing is everything. In the first part, we mean this literally, as we tackle systems that encode information using timing alone. In the second part, we adopt the standard, metaphoric interpretation of this saying and show the importance of ...

CauseOccam: Learning Interpretable Abstract Representations in Reinforcement Learning Environments via Model Sparsity

Sergei Volodin

"I choose this restaurant because they have vegan sandwiches" could be a typical explanation we would expect from a human. However, current Reinforcement Learning (RL) techniques are not able to provide such explanations, when trained on raw pixels. RL alg ...

Zero-one laws for eventually always hitting points in in rapidly mixing systems

Florian Karl Richter

In this work we study the set of eventually always hitting points in shrinking target systems. These are points whose long orbit segments eventually hit the corresponding shrinking targets for all future times. We focus our attention on systems where trans ...

Efficient learning of smooth probability functions from Bernoulli tests with guarantees.

Volkan Cevher, Paul Thierry Yves Rolland, Ali Kavis

We study the fundamental problem of learning an unknown, smooth probability function via pointwise Bernoulli tests. We provide a scalable algorithm for efficiently solving this problem with rigorous guarantees. In particular, we prove the convergence rate ...

Influence of density of large stems on the blocking probability at spillways

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Paloma Furlan

Dam safety is strongly linked to the probability of occurrence of large floods. Floods can transport large wood (LW) into reservoirs and towards water release structures as spillways. Due to blocking and clogging, LW may significantly influence the dischar ...

On Risk Reduction in Kelly Betting Using the Conservative Expected Value

Daniel Kuhn, Napat Rujeerapaiboon

The celebrated Kelly betting strategy guarantees, with probability one, higher long-run wealth than any other causal investment strategy. However, on the way to its long-term supremacy, this strategy has a notable downfall: it typically displays high varia ...

Interference Channels with Bursty Traffic and Delayed Feedback

Suhas Diggavi, I-Hsiang Wang

In this paper we study interference management in wireless networks with bursty user traffic. In each time slot, whether a user is on or off for transmission is governed by its own Bernoulli random state. At each transmitter, the states of activities of ot ...

Variance Stabilizing the Difference of Two Binomial Proportions

Stephan Morgenthaler, Robert Staudte

The article studies estimation of Delta = p(1) - p(2), the difference of two proportions p(1) and p(2), based on two independent Binomial experiments of size n(1) and n(2). The usual estimator, the difference between the two sample proportions, is variance ...
