Altruism, reciprocity, and tokens to reward forwarding data: Is that fair?

Verónica del Carmen Estrada Galiñanes, Arman Babaei

Decentralized storage networks offer services with intriguing possibilities to reduce inequalities in an extremely centralized market. Fair distribution of rewards, however, is still a persistent problem in the current generation of decentralized applicati ...

Quantifying the effects of rainfall temporal variability on landscape evolution processes

Sara Bonetti, Taiqi Lian

Rainfall characteristics such as intensity, duration, and frequency are key determinants of the hydro-geomorphological response of a catchment. The presence of non-linear and threshold effects makes the relationship between rainfall variability and geomorp ...

Predicting exposure concentrations of chemicals with a wide range of volatility and hydrophobicity in different multi-well plate set-ups

Kristin Schirmer, Julita Maria Stadnicka-Michalak

Quantification of chemical toxicity in small-scale bioassays is challenging owing to small volumes used and extensive analytical resource needs. Yet, relying on nominal concentrations for effect determination maybe erroneous because loss processes can sign ...

Affine Combination of Diffusion Strategies Over Networks

Ali H. Sayed, Jie Chen

Diffusion adaptation is a powerful strategy for distributed estimation and learning over networks. Motivated by the concept of combining adaptive filters, this work proposes a combination framework that aggregates the operation of multiple diffusion strate ...

Concrete Dam Displacement Prediction Based on an ISODATA-GMM Clustering and Random Coefficient Model

Zhenzhu Meng, Yating Hu, Chenfei Shao

Displacement data modelling is of great importance for the safety control of concrete dams. The commonly used artificial intelligence method modelled the displacement data at each monitoring point individually, i.e., the data correlations between the monit ...

Assessing spatial temporal patterns of ecosystem services in Switzerland

Jérôme Chenal, Martí Bosch Padrós, Rémi Jaligot

Despite the importance of understanding the historical dynamics of ecosystem services (ES), littleresearch has focused on a historical, spatially explicit, assessment of ES supply. This research is aimed at understanding the spatial patterns and potential ...

The Pass-through of Bank Capital Requirements to Corporate Lending Spreads

Luisa Lambertini, Abhik Mukherjee, Robert Bichsel

This paper studies the impact of higher bank capital requirements on corporate lending spreads. We conduct an empirical analysis using granular bank- and loan-level data for Switzerland. Overall, we nd a positive relationship between capital ratios, actual ...

Inequality in genetic cancer risk suggests bad genes rather than bad luck

Mats Julius Stensrud

Heritability is often estimated by decomposing the variance of a trait into genetic and other factors. Interpreting such variance decompositions, however, is not straightforward. In particular, there is an ongoing debate on the importance of genetic factor ...

Mobile Riverbed Scour Downstream of a Piano Key Weir

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Stefan Jüstrich

In parallel to their most frequent application as an auxiliary dam spillway, piano key weirs (PKWs) are also installed on low-head barrages in combination with run-off-the-river power plants. Their efficient rating curve, advantageous behavior under driftw ...

A Multi Level Monte Carlo Method with Control Variate for elliptic PDEs with log-normal coefficients

Fabio Nobile, Francesco Tesei

We consider the numerical approximation of the stochastic Darcy problem with log-normal permeability field and propose a novel Multi Level Monte Carlo (MLMC) approach with a control variate variance reduction technique on each level. We model the log-perme ...
