Following the release of crude oil from the Macondo well in 2010, a wide range of weathering processes acted on the spilled oil. A recent study revealed that samples from this spill were oxidized into oxygenated hydrocarbons (OxHC) comprising more than 50% ...
Increased physical activity is positively associated with better health in community-dwelling older persons. It is unclear whether physical activity also influences success of inpatient rehabilitation. For the assessment of physical activity in inpatient r ...
The matrix completion problem consists of finding or approximating a low-rank matrix based on a few samples of this matrix. We propose a new algorithm for matrix completion that minimizes the least-square distance on the sampling set over the Riemannian ma ...
Motivated by the numerical treatment of parametric and stochastic PDEs, we analyze the least-squares method for polynomial approximation of multivariate func- tions based on random sampling according to a given probability measure. Recent work has shown th ...
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 ...
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 ...
We evaluated a laser-based noncontacting method to measure the elastic anisotropy of horizontal shale cores. Whereas conventional transducer data contained an ambiguity between phase and group velocity measurements, small laser source and receiver footprin ...
The advent of statistical parametric speech synthesis has paved new ways to a unified framework for hidden Markov model (HMM) based text to speech synthesis (TTS) and automatic speech recognition (ASR). The techniques and advancements made in the field of ...
Diffusion adaptation techniques based on the least-mean-squares criterion have been proposed for distributed detection of a signal in Gaussian-distributed noise, forgoing the need for a fusion center. However, least-mean-squares solutions are generally non ...
Endophenotypes (i.e. stable and heritable markers of the illness) are one of the promising tools to understand the pathological mechanisms underlying schizophrenia. We recently showed that deficits in visual backward masking (VBM) meet the criteria for an ...
