Random sampling of bandlimited signals on graphs

Pierre Vandergheynst, Rémi Gribonval, Gilles Puy, Nicolas Tremblay

We study the problem of sampling k-bandlimited signals on graphs. We propose two sampling strategies that consist in selecting a small subset of nodes at random. The first strategy is non-adaptive, i.e., independent of the graph structure, and its performa ...

Revenue and Reserve Prices in a Probabilistic Single Item Auction

Moran Feldman

We investigate the effect of limiting the number of reserve prices on the revenue in a probabilistic single item auction. In the model considered, bidders compete for an impression drawn from a known distribution of possible types. The auction mechanism se ...

Lightning Location Systems and Interstroke Intervals: Effects of Imperfect Detection Efficiency

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Mirjana Stojilovic

Lightning location systems (LLSs) are often used to obtain parameters of lightning flashes. However, the imperfect detection efficiency (DE) of these systems affects the accuracy of the results. In this paper, we focus on the effects of the imperfect DE on ...

FPM SIMULATIONS OF A HIGH SPEED WATER JET VALIDATION WITH CFD AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS

François Avellan, Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh, Christian Vessaz

The present paper reports the development of Finite Particle Method (FPM) in the framework of a high-speed water jet simulation. The FPM kernel is used to improve the consistency of standard SPH for non-uniform particle distribution. The time integration i ...

Metropolis-Hastings sampling of paths

Michel Bierlaire, Gunnar Flötteröd

We consider the previously unsolved problem of sampling paths according to a given distribution from a general network. The problem is difficult because of the combinatorial number of alternatives, which prohibits a complete enumeration of all paths and he ...

Analysing Neuronal Network Architectures

Christian Tomm

The connections cortical neurons forms are different in each individual human or animal. Although there are known and determined large scale connections between areas of the brain that are common across individuals, the local connectivity on smaller scales ...

Metropolis-Hastings sampling of paths

Michel Bierlaire, Gunnar Flötteröd

We consider the previously unsolved problem of sampling cycle-free paths according to a given distribution from a general network. The problem is difficult because of the combinatorial number of alternatives, which prohibits a complete enumeration of all p ...

Compromise Pitman estimators

Nicolas Fournier

In this paper, we investigate the construction of compromise estimators of location and scale, by averaging over several models selected among a specified large set of possible models. The weight given to each distribution is based on the profile likelihoo ...
