MATHICSE Technical Report : Perturbation analysis for the Darcy problem with log-normal permeability

Fabio Nobile, Francesca Bonizzoni

We study the single-phase flow in a saturated, bounded heterogeneous porous medium. We model the permeability as a log-normal random field. We perform a perturbation analysis, expanding the solution in Taylor series. The series is directly computable in th ...

Comments on: Recent progress on the combinatorial diameter of polytopes and simplicial complexes

Friedrich Eisenbrand

This paper features two main contributions. On the one hand, it gives an impressive survey on the progress on the diameter problem, including the breakthrough of the author with his disproof of the Hirsch conjecture among many other recent results. On the ...

Source/Filter Factorial Hidden Markov Model, with Application to Pitch and Formant Tracking

Jean-Philippe Thiran

Tracking vocal tract formant frequencies (

f_p

) and estimating the fundamental frequency (

f_0

) are two tracking problems that have been tackled in many speech processing works, often independently, with applications to articulatory parameters estimation ...

On-line anomaly detection and resilience in classifier ensembles

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano, Hesam Sagha, Hamidreza Bayati

Detection of anomalies is a broad field of study, which is applied in different areas such as data monitoring, navigation, and pattern recognition. In this paper we propose two measures to detect anomalous behaviors in an ensemble of classifiers by monitor ...

Affine Variance Swap Curve Models

Damir Filipovic

This paper provides a brief overview of the stochastic modeling of variance swap curves. Focus is on affine factor models. We propose a novel drift parametrization which assures that the components of the state process can be matched with any pre-specified ...

Hybridization of wave functions in one-dimensional localization

Dmitri Ivanov

A quantum particle can be localized in a disordered potential, the effect known as Anderson localization. In such a system, correlations of wave functions at very close energies may be described, due to Mott, in terms of a hybridization of localized states ...

Evidence for Alternative Hypotheses

Stephan Morgenthaler, Robert Staudte

Most researchers want evidence for the direction of an effect, not evidence against a point null hypothesis. Such evidence is ideally on a scale that is easily interpretable, with an accompanying standard error. Further, the evidence from identical experim ...

Reliability Analysis of Data Storage Systems

Vinodh Venkatesan

Modern data storage systems are extremely large and consist of several tens or hundreds of nodes. In such systems, node failures are daily events, and safeguarding data from them poses a serious design challenge. The focus of this thesis is on the data rel ...

Cumulant microscopy

Theo Lasser, Claudio Dellagiacoma, Stefan Geissbuehler

The invention describes a method and a microscopy system for imaging and analysing stochastically and independently blinking point-like emitters. A multiple-order cumulants analysis in conjunction with an established blinking model enables the extraction o ...

Fringe demodulation using the two-dimensional phase differencing operator

Pramod Rastogi

The Letter proposes a method for phase estimation from a fringe pattern. The proposed method relies on a parametric approach where the phase is locally approximated as a two-dimensional (2D) polynomial, with the ensuing polynomial coefficients as the respe ...
