Floating bridges and various methods for determining their long-term extreme response due to wave loading

This project presents the theoretical background for calculating the long-term extreme response of pontoon-style floating bridges. Research into surrogate models for the long-term extreme response is given special attention, and various simulations of the ...

On quantifying the quality of acoustic models in hybrid DNN-HMM ASR

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Pranay Dighe

We propose an information theoretic framework for quantitative assessment of acoustic models used in hidden Markov model (HMM) based automatic speech recognition (ASR). The HMM backend expects that (i) the acoustic model yields accurate state conditional e ...

Partial safety factor format for the resistance of structural concrete considering multiple failure modes

Aurelio Muttoni, Qianhui Yu, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

In this paper, the applicability of the Partial Safety Factor Format (PSFF) of EN1992-1-1:2004 (Eurocode 2 for Concrete Structures) to the reliability verification of structural concrete resistance involving multiple failure modes is investigated. This is ...

Scalable Stochastic Optimization: Scenario Reduction with Guarantees

Kilian Schindler

Stochastic optimization is a popular modeling paradigm for decision-making under uncertainty and has a wide spectrum of applications in management science, economics and engineering. However, the stochastic optimization models one faces in practice are int ...

Context Mover's Distance & Barycenters: Optimal Transport of Contexts for Building Representations

Martin Jaggi, Aymeric Daphnis Kévin Dieuleveut, Sidak Pal Singh, Andreas Hug

We present a framework for building unsupervised representations of entities and their compositions, where each entity is viewed as a probability distribution rather than a vector embedding. In particular, this distribution is supported over the contexts w ...

Robust Generalization via f−Mutual Information

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Amedeo Roberto Esposito, Ibrahim Issa

Given two probability measures P and Q and an event E, we provide bounds on P(E) in terms of Q(E) and f-divergences. In particular, the bounds are instantiated when the measures considered are a joint distribution and the corresponding product of marginals ...

Serge Vaudenay

The maximal achievable advantage of a (computationally unbounded) distinguisher to determine whether a source

Z

is distributed according to distribution

P_0

or

P_1

, when given access to one sample of

Z

Distributional Robustness in Mechanism Design

Cagil Kocyigit

Mechanism design theory examines the design of allocation mechanisms or incentive systems involving multiple rational but self-interested agents and plays a central role in many societally important problems in economics. In mechanism design problems, agen ...

Characterization of myelodysplastic syndromes progressing to acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Filipe Amândio Brandão Sanches Vong Martins

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of diseases, with a variable probability of transformation into acute leukemia, which is, in the vast majority of cases, of myeloid lineage. Nevertheless, rare cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia ...

Adiabatic motion and statistical mechanics via mass-zero constrained dynamics

Sara Bonella, Alessandro Coretti

In recent work [Coretti et al., J. Chem. Phys., 2018, 149, 191102], a new algorithm to solve numerically the dynamics of the shell model for polarization was presented. The approach, broadly applicable to systems involving adiabatically separated dynamical ...
