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 ...

Type IV pili mechanochemically regulate virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Alexandre Louis André Persat, Joanne Netter Engel

Bacteria have evolved a wide range of sensing systems to appropriately respond to environmental signals. Here we demonstrate that the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa detects contact with surfaces on short timescales using the mechanical activ ...

Distributionally Robust Logistic Regression

Daniel Kuhn, Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh, Peyman Mohajerin Esfahani

This paper proposes a distributionally robust approach to logistic regression. We use the Wasserstein distance to construct a ball in the space of probability distributions centered at the uniform distribution on the training samples. If the radius of this ...

A Statistical Approach To The Inverse Problem In Magnetoencephalography

Zhigang Yao

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is an imaging technique used to measure the magnetic field outside the human head produced by the electrical activity inside the brain. The MEG inverse problem, identifying the location of the electrical sources from the magnet ...

Molecular Modeling of Membrane Embedded Proteins

Thomas Lemmin

Over the past years, molecular modeling and simulation techniques have had a major impact on experimental life sciences. They are capable of providing accurate insight into microscopic mechanisms, which are usually difficult to investigate experimentally. ...

We study the steady-state probability distribution of diffusion and consensus strategies that employ constant step-sizes to enable continuous adaptation and learning. We show that, in the small step-size regime, the estimation error at each agent approache ...

Inferring the magnetic field vector in the quiet Sun III. Disk variation of the Stokes profiles and isotropism of the magnetic field

Philipp Kobel

Recent investigations of the magnetic field vector properties in the solar internetwork have provided diverging results. While some works found that the internetwork is mostly pervaded by horizontal magnetic fields, other works argued in favor of an isotro ...

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 ...

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 ...

Using an exponential power model for Wyner-Ziv video coding

Thomas Maugey

The Laplacian model is the standard distribution for correlation noise estimation at the turbodecoder in Wyner-Ziv coding schemes. In practice, this hypothesis is not always satisfied and, regularly, the estimated model sensibly differs from the error dist ...
