We consider a class of branching processes with countably many types which we refer to as Lower Hessenberg branching processes. These are multitype Galton-Watson processes with typeset X = {0, 1, 2,...}, in which individuals of type i may give birth to off ...
We propose two decompositions that help to summarize and describe high-dimensional tail dependence within the framework of regular variation. We use a transformation to define a vector space on the positive orthant and show that transformed-linear operatio ...
Detecting lexical entailment plays a fundamental role in a variety of natural language processing tasks and is key to language understanding. Unsupervised methods still play an important role due to the lack of coverage of lexical databases in some domains ...
Fibre bonds play an essential role in various properties of paper. Much research has focused on their strength, but the determination of the actual contact area also provides a challenge. Many of the research methods rely on optical tools, which are restri ...
We focus on the generalized-interpolation problem. There, one reconstructs continuous-domain signals that honor discrete data constraints. This problem is infinite-dimensional and ill-posed. We make it well-posed by imposing that the solution balances data ...
We present a generic method to construct orthogonal projectors for two-dimensional landmark-based parametric spline curves. We construct vector spaces that define a geometric transformation (e.g., affine, similarity, and scaling) that is applied to a refer ...
Evaluating the action of a matrix function on a vector, that is x=f(M)v, is an ubiquitous task in applications. When M is large, one usually relies on Krylov projection methods. In this paper, we provide effective choices for the pole ...
We consider the nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation in a bounded interval equipped with the Dirichlet boundary condition and the Neumann boundary condition on the right. It is known that there is a set of critical lengths for which the solutions of ...
Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic and let W be a finite-dimensional K-vector space of dimension greater than or equal to 5. In this paper, we give the structure of certain Weyl modules for in the case where , as well as the dimension ...
Delay-And-Sum (DAS), the state-of-art in ultrasound imaging, is known to be sub-optimal, resulting in low resolution and contrast. Most proposed improvements involve ad-hoc re-weighting, or hit computational bottlenecks given real-time requirements. This p ...
