Extensions of Peer Prediction Incentive Mechanisms

As large, data-driven artificial intelligence models become ubiquitous, guaranteeing high data quality is imperative for constructing models. Crowdsourcing, community sensing, and data filtering have long been the standard approaches to guaranteeing or imp ...

Multiplicative chaos of the Brownian loop soup

Antoine Pierre François Jego, Titus Lupu

We construct a measure on the thick points of a Brownian loop soup in a bounded domain D

, which is formally obtained by exponentiating the square root of its occupation field. The measure is construct ...

A Functional Perspective on Information Measures

Amedeo Roberto Esposito

Since the birth of Information Theory, researchers have defined and exploited various information measures, as well as endowed them with operational meanings. Some were born as a "solution to a problem", like Shannon's Entropy and Mutual Information. Other ...

Semi-Discrete Optimal Transport: Hardness, Regularization and Numerical Solution

Daniel Kuhn, Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh, Bahar Taskesen

Semi-discrete optimal transport problems, which evaluate the Wasserstein distance between a discrete and a generic (possibly non-discrete) probability measure, are believed to be computationally hard. Even though such problems are ubiquitous in statistics, ...

Examples of normal, not geometrically normal, projective Gorenstein del Pezzo surfaces with at most Du Val singularities

Ursina Schweizer

While over fields of characteristic at least 5, a normal, projective and Gorenstein del Pezzo surface is geometrically normal, this does not hold for characteristic 2 and 3. There is no characterization of all such non-geometrically normal surfaces, but th ...

Chirok: a post-refinement tool to analyse absolute structure

Philip Pattison

Chirok is software for a post-refinement test of the absolute structure. The software allows a user to calculate a distribution of the measure of chirality based on intensity quotients and linked to the Flack parameter. The distribution is fitted by a set ...

First passage sets of the 2D continuum Gaussian free field

Juhan Aru, Titus Lupu

We introduce the first passage set (FPS) of constant level -a of the two-dimensional continuum Gaussian free field (GFF) on finitely connected domains. Informally, it is the set of points in the domain that can be connected to the boundary by a path on whi ...

Intermodal measurements in few-mode fibers with phase- sensitive OTDR

Luc Thévenaz, Zhisheng Yang, Alejandro Dominguez Lopez

We experimentally verify the possibility of measuring the difference in effective refractive index between higher-order-modes using a phase-sensitive OTDR, indicating that it is possible to measure the average difference over long fiber spans. ...

Optical Characterization of an Intra-Arterial Light and Drug Delivery System for Photodynamic Therapy of Atherosclerotic Plaque

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Matthieu Philippe Emmanuel Zellweger, Andreas Pitzschke, Manish Jain, Ying Xiao

Although the versatility of photodynamic therapy (PDT) is well established, the technical aspects of light delivery systems vary significantly depending on the targeted organ. This article describes the optical properties of a light and drug delivery syste ...

Statistical Aspects of Wasserstein Distances

Victor Panaretos, Yoav Zemel

Wasserstein distances are metrics on probability distributions inspired by the problem of optimal mass transportation. Roughly speaking, they measure the minimal effort required to reconfigure the probability mass of one distribution in order to recover th ...
