A method to estimate from multivariate measurements the dependences within a network of coupled dynamical systems is proposed. The method is non-parametric and resorts to a statistics of the eigen-spectrums of the time series partial correlation matrices. ...
This work is dedicated to the study of models of quantum chaos. It is clear that one cannot define chaos in quantum mechanics the same way it is defined in classical dynamics. The classical definition of chaos relies upon the ideas of sensitive dependence ...
We show that the finite-length scaling parameters for irregular LDPC codes when used over the binary erasure channel can be computed without resorting to ``covariance evolution''. We provide simple expressions that can be evaluated using solely the degree ...
Allowing for variations in behaviour across respondents is one of the most fundamental principles in discrete choice modelling, given that the assumption of a purely homogeneous population cannot in general be seen to be valid. Two approaches have classica ...
The Karhunen–Loève transform (KLT) is a key ele- ment of many signal processing and communication tasks. Many recent applications involve distributed signal processing, where it is not generally possible to apply the KLT to the entire signal; rather, the K ...
Modellers are increasingly relying on the use of continuous random coefficients models, such as Mixed Logit, for the representation of variations in tastes across individuals. In this paper, we provide an in-depth comparison of the performance of the Mixed ...
A proposal function determines the random particle support of a particle filter. When this support is distributed close to the true target density, filter's estimation performance increases for a given number of particles. In this paper, a proposal strateg ...
The kurtosis of a signal is a quantitative measure of how `peaky' it is. In this paper we consider two scenarios of communication over fading channels with kurtosis constraints: in the first, we analyze a non-coherent Rayleigh fading channel where the inpu ...

The idea that snow avalanches might behave as granular flows, and thus be described as Coulomb fluid flows, came up very early in the scientific study of avalanches, but it is not until recently that field evidence has been provided that demonstrates the r ...
