ChoiceRank: Identifying Preferences from Node Traffic in Networks

Understanding how users navigate in a network is of high interest in many applications. We consider a setting where only aggregate node-level traffic is observed and tackle the task of learning edge transition probabilities. We cast it as a preference lear ...

Equivalent electricity storage capacity of domestic thermostatically controlled loads

Fabrizio Sossan

A method to quantify the equivalent storage capacity inherent the operation of thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) is developed. Equivalent storage capacity is defined as the amount of power and electricity consumption which can be deferred or anticip ...

Accounting for material parameters scattering in rolled zinc formability

Roland Logé

This paper focuses on the importance of taking into account scattering of material parameters (zinc in this example) to perform sheet metal forming simulations. The approach described in this paper is efficiently pragmatic to consider as inputs the materia ...

DEEP NEURAL NETWORK BASED POSTERIORS FOR TEXT-DEPENDENT SPEAKER VERIFICATION

Petr Motlicek, Subhadeep Dey

The i-vector and Joint Factor Analysis (JFA) systems for text- dependent speaker verification use sufficient statistics computed from a speech utterance to estimate speaker models. These statis- tics average the acoustic information over the utterance ther ...

Statistical methods for comparing brain connectomes at different scales

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Stephan Morgenthaler, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

Physiological Brain connectivity and spontaneous interaction between regions of interest of the brain can be represented by a matrix (full or sparse) or equivalently by a complex network called connectome. This representation of brain connectivity is adopt ...

In vivo evaluation of a novel 'diastole-patching' algorithm for the estimation of pulse transit time: advancing the precision in pulse wave velocity measurement

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Orestis Vardoulis

Carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the gold standard for the assessment of aortic stiffness. It is calculated by the ratio of pulse transit time (PTT) between two arterial sites and the distance between them. The precision of PTT estimation de ...

Sparsity-Driven Statistical Inference for Inverse Problems

Ulugbek Kamilov

This thesis addresses statistical inference for the resolution of inverse problems. Our work is motivated by the recent trend whereby classical linear methods are being replaced by nonlinear alternatives that rely on the sparsity of naturally occurring sig ...

Calibration of optical tweezers with non-spherical probes via high-resolution detection of Brownian motion

László Forró, Richard Gaal, Flavio Maurizio Mor, Sylvia Jeney

Optical tweezers are commonly used and powerful tools to perform force measurements on the piconewton scale and to detect nanometer-scaled displacements. However, the precision of these instruments relies to a great extent on the accuracy of the calibratio ...
