We consider a family of multivariate trace inequalities recently derived by Sutter, Berta, and Tomamichel. These inequalities generalize the Golden-Thompson inequality and Lieb’s triple matrix inequality to an arbitrary number of matrices in a way that fea ...
Knapsack problems give a simple framework for decision making. A classical example is the min-knapsack problem (MinKnap): choose a subset of items with minimum total cost, whose total profit is above a given threshold. While this model successfully general ...
An integer linear program is a problem of the form max{c^T x : Ax=b, x >= 0, x integer}, where A is in Z^(n x m), b in Z^m, and c in Z^n.Solving an integer linear program is NP-hard in general, but there are several assumptions for which it becomes fixed p ...
Various unsupervised learning algorithms including GMM, Birch, Mean- Shift, K-means and DBSCAN were used to cluster the image and depth sensor data. However, it was not possible to fit the clusters on each objects quite separately in as much as data are too ...
Additive manufacturing is becoming one of the key methods for reproducing repair sections in remanufacturing processes. The major advantage of using additive processes is to minimize production time and waste. However, the surface quality and shape accurac ...
Background The surgical treatment of liver tumours relies on precise localization of the lesions and detailed knowledge of the patient-specific vascular and biliary anatomy. Detailed three-dimensional (3D) anatomical information facilitates complete tumour ...
The main topic of this thesis is the study of the non-linear stochastic wave equation in spatial dimension greater than 3 driven by spatially homogeneous Gaussian noise that is white in time. We are interested in questions of existence and uniqueness of so ...
Recommender systems based on user feedback rank items by aggregating users' ratings in order to select those that are ranked highest. Ratings are usually aggregated using a weighted arithmetic mean. However, the mean is quite sensitive to outliers and bias ...
We here describe the result of simulations of 15 generic neutron instruments for the long-pulsed European Spallation Source. All instruments have been simulated for 20 different settings of the source time structure, corresponding to pulse lengths between ...
This paper introduces an approach to wavelet packet best basis searches using the generalized Renyi entropy. The approach extends on work by Coifman and Wickerhauser who showed how Shannon entropy can be used as an additive cost function in the wavelet pac ...
