We discuss general notions of metrics and of Finsler structures which we call weak metrics and weak Finsler structures. Any convex domain carries a canonical weak Finsler structure, which we call its tautological weak Finsler structure. We compute distance ...
On-line measurements from first-order instruments such as spectrometers may be compromised by instrumental, process and operational drifts that are not seen during off-line calibration. This can render the calibration model unsuitable for prediction of key ...
In lentic water bodies, such as lakes, the water temperature near the surface typically increases during the day, and decreases during the night as a consequence of the diurnal radiative forcing (solar and infrared radiation). These temperature variations ...
Motivated by financial applications, we study convex analysis for modules over the ordered ring L0 of random variables. We establish a module analogue of locally convex vector spaces, namely locally L0-convex modules. In this context, we prove hyperplane s ...
We describe a new method for phoneme sequence recognition given a speech utterance. In contrast to HMM-based approaches, our method uses a kernel-based discriminative training procedure in which the learning process is tailored to the goal of minimizing th ...
We propose a method for generating all possible rules of multidimension Boolean cellular automata (CA). Based on an original encoding method and the programming of graphical processor units (GPU), this method allows us to visualize the CA information flow ...
We describe a new method for phoneme sequence recognition given a speech utterance, which is not based on the HMM. In contrast to HMM-based approaches, our method uses a discriminative kernel-based training procedure in which the learning process is tailor ...
This paper provides some useful results for convex risk measures. In fact, we consider convex functions on a locally convex vector space E which are monotone with respect to the preference relation implied by some convex cone and invariant with respect to ...
Given a collection F of subsets of Rn, consider the operator \mboxhullF associating to a set X⊂Rn the intersection of all elements of F containing X. The aim of this note is the study of the operator $\mbox{h ...
Set agreement, where processors decisions constitute a set of outputs, is notoriously harder to analyze than consensus where the decisions are restricted to a single output. This is because the topological questions that underly set agreement are not about ...
