Multivariate geometric anisotropic Cox processes

Sofia Charlotta Olhede

This paper introduces a new modeling and inference framework for multivariate and anisotropic point processes. Building on recent innovations in multivariate spatial statistics, we propose a new family of multivariate anisotropic random fields, and from th ...

Information Theory in Transmembrane Transport

Solange Marie Flatt

The past decades have seen the advent of information theory in various fields, from quantum physics to cosmology.At an intermediary scale between atomic and cosmological scales are biological systems and in particular the cell, as a constitutive element of ...

The Lang-Trotter conjecture for products of non-CM elliptic curves

Vlad Serban

Inspired by the work of Lang-Trotter on the densities of primes with fixed Frobenius traces for elliptic curves defined over Q and by the subsequent generalization of Cojocaru-Davis-Silverberg-Stange to generic abelian varieties, we study the analogous que ...

SPRINGER2022

Formal verification of real-world software systems remains challenging for a number of reasons, including lack of automation, friction in specifying properties, and limited support for the diverse programming paradigms used in industry. In this thesis we m ...

Subharmonic parametric instability in nearly brimful circular cylinders: a weakly nonlinear analysis

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone, Francesco Viola

In labscale Faraday experiments, meniscus waves respond harmonically to small-amplitude forcing without threshold, hence potentially cloaking the instability onset of parametric waves. Their suppression can be achieved by imposing a contact line pinned at ...

Il demone dell'analogia: Ovvero affinità e divergenze fra il compagno aristotele e noi

Nicola Braghieri

This laconic discourse uses the Aristotelian authority to define the role of the analogical procedure in the government of the architectural composition. Respecting its ambiguous balance between mathematical method and attitude of the imagination, analogy ...

In the Vitruvian tradition, ornaments are classified into two categories: those that belong to the orders, and the others. If the former's relief is merely indicated by Vitruvio and Alberti, the latter is simply ignored, thus opening the way to licentia. ...

Person retrieval largely relies on the appearance features of pedestrians. This task is rather more difficult in surveillance videos due to the limitations of extracting robust appearance features brought by the cross-view and cross-camera data with lower ...

Reverse-Engineering Satire, or "Paper on Computational Humor Accepted despite Making Serious Advances"

Robert West

Humor is an essential human trait. Efforts to understand humor have called out links between humor and the foundations of cognition, as well as the importance of humor in social engagement. As such, it is a promising and important subject of study, with re ...

Moving on: Is Existenzminimum Still Relevant?

Bruno Marchand

In the inter-war period, progressive architects confronted the building of mass housing with an analogy with rational and functional workplaces. At the 2nd CIAM (Congres Internationaux d'Architecture Moderne), held in Frankfurt in 1929, this was tested aga ...
