The increasing interest in using statistical extreme value theory to analyse environmental data is mainly driven by the large impact extreme events can have. A difficulty with spatial data is that most existing inference methods for asymptotically justifie ...
Time series constitute a challenging data type for machine learning algorithms, due to their highly variable lengths and sparse labeling in practice. In this paper, we tackle this challenge by proposing an unsupervised method to learn universal embeddings ...
During the last twenty years, Random matrix theory (RMT) has produced numerous results that allow a better understanding of large random matrices. These advances have enabled interesting applications in the domain of communication. Although this theory can ...
In many signal processing, machine learning and computer vision applications, one often has to deal with high dimensional and big datasets such as images, videos, web content, etc. The data can come in various forms, such as univariate or multivariate time ...
Since the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, the financial market has become more unpredictable than ever before, and it seems set to remain so in the forseeable future. This means an investor faces unprecedented risks, hence the increasing need for robust port ...
Growth-optimal portfolios are guaranteed to accumulate higher wealth than any other investment strategy in the long run. However, they tend to be risky in the short term. For serially uncorrelated markets, similar portfolios with more robust guarantees hav ...
Elliptical distributions are useful for modelling multivariate data, multivariate normal and Student t distributions being two special classes. In this paper, we provide a definition for the elliptical tempered stable (ETS) distribution based on its charac ...
In this study, large-eddy simulation is combined with a turbine model to investigate the influence of atmospheric thermal stability on wind-turbine wakes. The simulation results show that atmospheric stability has a significant effect on the spatial distri ...
Gaussian belief propagation (GaBP) is an iterative algorithm for computing the mean (and variances) of a multivariate Gaussian distribution, or equivalently, the minimum of a multivariate positive definite quadratic function. Sufficient conditions, such as ...
Background. Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) present a high risk of developing psychosis. While clinical and cognitive predictors for the conversion towards a full-blown psychotic disorder are well defined and largely used in practice, neu ...
