Structure of multicorrelation sequences with integer part polynomial iterates along primes

Let T be a measure-preserving Zℓ-action on the probability space (X,B,μ), let q1,…,qm:R→Rℓ be vector polynomials, and let f0,…,fm∈L∞⁡(X). For any ϵ>0 and multicorrelation sequences of the form α⁡(n)=∫Xf0⋅T⌊q1⁡(n)⌋⁢f1⋯T⌊qm⁡(n)⌋⁢fmd⁢μ we show that there exis ...

Modeling and Inferring Attention between Humans or for Human-Robot Interactions

Rémy Alain Siegfried

More and more intelligent systems have to interact with humans. In order to communicate efficiently, these systems need to perceive and understand us. A key factor of communication is the people's visual focus of attention (VFOA), which is useful to estima ...

Long-lasting feature integration

In the classic model of vision, processing is local, feedforward and hierarchical. The first stages of the visual system are retinotopic, i.e., neighboring points in the outside world are mapped onto neighboring photoreceptors of the retina and this is pre ...

Tighter thermodynamic bound on the speed limit in systems with unidirectional transitions

Daniel Maria Busiello, Deepak Gupta

We consider a general discrete state-space system with both unidirectional and bidirectional links. In contrast to bidirectional links, there is no reverse transition along the unidirectional links Herein, we first compute the statistical length and the th ...

Investigating prospective memory via eye tracking: No evidence for a monitoring deficit in older adults

Michael Herzog, Marc Michael Lauffs

Prospective memory (PM) refers to remembering to perform intended actions in the future. Older adults in particular have been shown to be negatively affected by PM tasks that require a high amount of attentional resources (i.e., nonfocal tasks). This age-r ...

Optimistic Distributionally Robust Optimization for Nonparametric Likelihood Approximation

Daniel Kuhn, Viet Anh Nguyen, Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh, Wolfram Wiesemann

The likelihood function is a fundamental component in Bayesian statistics. However, evaluating the likelihood of an observation is computationally intractable in many applications. In this paper, we propose a non-parametric approximation of the likelihood ...

A simple method to obtain visual attention data in head mounted virtual reality

Touradj Ebrahimi, Evgeniy Upenik

Automatic prediction of salient regions in images is a well developed topic in the field of computer vision. Yet, virtual reality omnidirectional visual content brings new challenges to this topic, due to a different representation of visual information an ...

The effects of spatial attention on temporal integration

Michael Herzog, Marc Michael Lauffs

Feature fusion reflects temporal integration. Previous studies mostly employed foveal presentations with no attention manipulation. In this study we examined the effects of sustained spatial attention on temporal integration using feature-fusion with perip ...

Reliability based fatigue assessment of existing motorway bridge

Alain Nussbaumer, Luca D'Angelo

This paper provides an original framework for the fatigue reliability analysis of a road bridge; the framework is applied to the Venoge bridge, a composite steel concrete bridge within the A1 Swiss highway. Two critical details are selected by inspection: ...
