Riparian vegetation dynamics in Alpine rivers are to a large extent driven by the timing and magnitude of floods which inundate the floodplain, transport sediment, erode the river bed, and create and destroy suitable germination sites. Here we present a st ...
Two-component mixture distributions with one component a point mass and the other a continuous density may be used as priors for Bayesian inference when sparse representation of an underlying signal is required. We show how saddlepoint approximation in suc ...
In this thesis, we focus on Impulse Radio (IR) Ultra-WideBand (UWB) ranging and positioning techniques under indoor propagation environments. IR-UWB, a new carrierless communication scheme using impulses, is a candidate technology for future communication, ...
Molecular noise, which arises from the randomness of the discrete events in the cell, significantly influences fundamental biological processes. Discrete-state continuous-time stochastic models (CTMC) can be used to describe such effects, but the calculati ...
In this paper, we compare two methods to model the formation of choice sets in the context of discrete choice models. The first method is the probabilistic approach proposed by Manski in 1977, who models the choice probability as the joint probability of s ...
We describe a set of probability distributions, dubbed compressible priors, whose independent and identically distributed (iid) realizations result in p-compressible signals. A signal x in R^N is called p-compressible with magnitude R if its sorted coeffic ...
Dempster-Shafer data fusion can enhance travel time estimation for motorists and traffic managers. In this paper, travel time data from inductive loop road sensors and toll collection stations are merged through Dempster-Shafer inference to generate an imp ...
Events occurring in a city, such as car accidents, attacks on the security or activities locations are channelled in the urban network. The goal of this report is to provide a GIS tool able to compute densities and diversities in a network space rather tha ...
In this paper, we compare two methods to model the formation of choice sets in the context of discrete choice models. The first method is the probabilistic approach proposed by Manski (1977), who models the choice probability as the joint probability of se ...
We present ail on-the-fly abstraction technique for infinite-state continuous-time Markov chains. We consider Markov chains that are specified by a finite set of transition classes. Such models naturally represent biochemical reactions and therefore play a ...
