Water contamination is an important environmental concern underlining the need for reliable real-time information on contaminant concentrations in natural waters. Here, a new non-contact UV-Vis spectroscopic approach for monitoring contaminants in water, a ...
We consider the numerical approximation of the stochastic Darcy problem with log-normal permeability field and propose a novel Multi Level Monte Carlo approach with a control variate variance reduction technique on each level. We model the log-permeability ...
To advance Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS)-based molecular structure analysis, corresponding development of the FTMS signal processing methods and instrumentation is required. Here, we demonstrate utility of a least-squares fitting (LSF) method ...
This paper proposes a stability verification method for systems controlled by an early terminated first-order method (e.g., an MPC problem approximately solved by a fixed number of iterations of the fast gradient method). The method is based on the observa ...
The upcoming JPEG XT is under development for High Dynamic Range (HDR) image compression. This standard encodes a Low Dynamic Range (LDR) version of the HDR image generated by a Tone-Mapping Operator (TMO) using the conventional JPEG coding as a base layer ...
We investigate the relation of two fundamental tools in machine learning and signal processing, that is the support vector machine (SVM) for classification, and the Lasso technique used in regression. We show that the resulting optimization problems are eq ...
We introduce a model-based excessive gap technique to analyze first-order primal- dual methods for constrained convex minimization. As a result, we construct new primal-dual methods with optimal convergence rates on the objective residual and the primal fe ...
We describe the data processing pipeline of the Planck Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) data processing centre (DPC) to create and characterize full-sky maps based on the first 15.5 months of operations at 30, 44, and 70 GHz. In particular, we discuss the va ...
We characterize the maximum controlled invariant (MCI) set for discrete- as well as continuous-time nonlinear dynamical systems as the solution of an infinite-dimensional linear programming problem. For systems with polynomial dynamics and compact semialge ...

The problem of successive refinement in distributed source coding and in joint source-channel coding is considered. The emphasis is placed on the case where the sources have to be recovered losslessly in the second stage. In distributed source coding, it i ...
