Generalized Additive Models (GAM) are a widely popular class of regression models to forecast electricity demand, due to their high accuracy, flexibility and interpretability. However, the residuals of the fitted GAM are typically heteroscedastic and lepto ...
Soil moisture is crucial to water-cycle as it affects infiltration, runoff and land-atmosphere interactions. In dry soils the role of water vapor fluxes becomes essential and causes a tight coupling between soil moisture dynamics and heat transfer, which m ...
Query optimizers depend heavily on statistics representing column distributions to create efficient query plans. In many cases, though, statistics are outdated or non-existent, and the process of refreshing statistics is very expensive, especially for ad-h ...
Dimensional metrology applications require performing measurements of profile and form/shape of parts at a nanometer-level of accuracy. Therefore, the metrological characteristics of a miniature optical micro-probe based on a Michelson interferometer are e ...
When using Newton iterations to solve nonlinear parametrized PDEs in the context of Reduced Basis (RB)methods, the assembling of the RB arrays in the online stage depends in principle on the high-fidelityapproximation. This task is even more challenging wh ...
The design themes focus on the renovation, reuse and re-utilization of old and valuable buildings, now in disuse, and the rethinking of public places to be integrated into the urban context, now partly in ruins and without an active identity to enhance the ...
In many practical applications the state of field soils is monitored by recording the evolution of temperature and soil moisture at discrete depths. We theoretically investigate the systematic errors that arise when mass and energy balances are computed di ...
Query optimizers depend heavily on statistics representing column distributions to create efficient query plans. In many cases, though, statistics are outdated or non-existent, and the process of refreshing statistics is very expensive, especially for ad-h ...
The embedded model is used in finite elements to account for the influence of the reinforcement in concrete. This report describes the embedded model, its concept and equations. Details are also given as to the constitutive relations of concrete and steel. ...
An adaptive reduced basis finite element heterogeneous multiscale method (RB-FE-HMM) is proposed for elliptic problems with multiple scales. The multiscale method is based on the RB-FE-HMM introduced in [A. Abdulle, Y. Bai, Reduced basis finite element het ...
