In this paper we present a scalable and exact solution for probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA). PLDA is a probabilistic model that has been shown to provide state-of-the-art performance for both face and speaker recognition. However, it has o ...
Even though it oversimplifies reality, the dam-break problem for frictionless fluids provides predictions relevant to various manmade and natural dam-break floods. The exact solution can also be used to test numerical schemes. However, as far as we are awa ...
This paper is concerned with the initial-boundary value problems of scalar transport equations with uncertain transport velocities. It was demonstrated in our earlier works that regularity of the exact solutions in the random spaces (or the parametric spac ...
We consider an eigenvalue problem for a certain type of quasi-linear second-order differential equation on the interval (0, infinity). Using an appropriate version of the mountain pass theorem, we establish the existence of a positive solution in H-0(1)(0, ...
The finite cell method (FCM) belongs to the class of immersed boundary methods, and combines the fictitious domain approach with high-order approximation, adaptive integration and weak imposition of unfitted Dirichlet boundary conditions. Its main idea con ...
A general continuum theory for particle size segregation and diffusive remixing in polydisperse granular avalanches is formulated using mixture theory. Comparisons are drawn to existing segregation theories for bi-disperse mixtures and the case of a ternar ...
In a recent publication, Haestier [J. Appl. Cryst. (2009), 42, 798-809] has proposed a method to take care of the unit-cell-parameter uncertainties in the calculation of geometric quantities such as interatomic distances and bond angles by modifying the un ...
In this work we propose and analyze a weighted reduced basis method to solve elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) with random input data. The PDEs are first transformed into a weighted parametric elliptic problem depending on a finite number of p ...
Line broadening, which can arise from inhomogeneities or homogeneous relaxation effects that lead to finite lifetimes of quantum states, is the Achilles' heel of many forms of spectroscopy. We show that line broadening may be considerably reduced by exploi ...
