This paper investigates entropic matroids, that is, matroids whose rank function is given as the Shannon entropy of random variables. In particular, we consider p-entropic matroids, for which the random variables each have support of cardinality p. We draw ...
Christopher Wren imagined and designed a weather-clock which could register the traces of multiple meteorological instruments (barometer, thermometer, rain gauge, hygrometer etc.). Wren presented his machine on different occasions, under different forms: v ...
Slow acquisition has been one of the historical problems in dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI), but the rise of compressed sensing (CS) has brought numerous algorithms that successfully achieve high acceleration rates. While CS proposes random sampl ...
Statistical methods for inference on spatial extremes of large datasets are yet to be developed. Motivated by standard dimension reduction techniques used in spatial statistics, we propose an approach based on empirical basis functions to explore and model ...
Photoactivation ('uncaging') is a powerful approach for releasing bioactive small molecules in living cells. Current uncaging methods are limited by the random distribution of caged molecules within cells. We have developed a mitochondria-specific photoact ...
The history of giant viruses began in 2003 with the identification of Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus. Since then, giant viruses of amoeba enlightened an unknown part of the viral world, and every discovery and characterization of a new giant virus modifi ...
Risk assessment of dam's running status is an important part of dam management. A data-driven method based on monitored displacement data has been applied in risk assessment, owing to its easy operation and real-time analysis. However, previous data-driven ...
We study properties of arithmetic sets coming from multiplicative number theory and obtain applications in the theory of uniform distribution and ergodic theory. Our main theorem is a generalization of Kátai's orthogonality cri ...
We derive sharp probability bounds on the tails of a product of symmetric non-negative random variables using only information about their first two moments. If the covariance matrix of the random variables is known exactly, these bounds can be computed nu ...
