The mechanical behavior of cellular matter in two dimensions can be inferred from geometric information near its energetic ground state. Here it is shown that the much larger set of all metastable state energies is universally described by a systematic exp ...
xtreme value analysis is concerned with the modelling of extreme events such as floods and heatwaves, which can have large impacts. Statistical modelling can be useful to better assess risks even if, due to scarcity of measurements, there is inherently ver ...
To confront the numerical results of Gamma(diff)with the analytical results from section 2.3, we originally considered the theoretical prediction for the diffusion rate given by eq. (2.17), which we re-wrote in eq. (4.25). ...
In this thesis, I aim to contribute to the research towards improving the sustainability of habitat life in streams affected by anthropogenic activities. With the growing trend of altering natural water regimes due to hydropower operations, irrigation, and ...
We report the results of a search for the decay B-0 -> X(3872) (-> J/psi pi(+)pi(-))gamma. The analysis is performed on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711 fb(-1) and containing 772 x 10(6)B (B) over bar pairs, collected with the ...
We consider the problem of trajectory planning in an environment comprised of a set of obstacles with uncertain locations. While previous approaches model the uncertainties with a prescribed Gaussian distribution, we consider the realistic case in which th ...
Max-stable random fields are very appropriate for the statistical modelling of spatial extremes. Hence, integrals of functions of max-stable random fields over a given region can play a key role in the assessment of the risk of natural disasters, meaning t ...
In this paper, we develop a stochastic-gradient learning algorithm for situations involving streaming data that arise from an underlying clustered structure. In such settings, the variance of gradient noise can be decomposed into the in-cluster variance si ...
In this paper, we study the third Painleve equation with parameters gamma = 0, alpha delta not equal 0. The Puiseux series formally satisfying this equation (after a certain change of variables) asymptotically approximate of Gevrey order one solutions to t ...
This work studies the robustness certification problem of neural network models, which aims to find certified adversary-free regions as large as possible around data points. In contrast to the existing approaches that seek regions bounded uniformly along a ...
