swissALPS: a Dataset for Imbalanced Land Cover Mapping in Alpine Regions
Our dataset consists of very high-resolution aerial images (50cm) and a digital elevation model (50cm) that covers approx. 2300 km2 of land above 2000m altitude in the southwestern part of Switzerland. Our land cover labels focus on alpine land cover that ...
IEEE DataPort2023Construction of sequencing libraries from a ribonucleic acid (rna) using tailing and ligation of cdna (tlc)
The present invention provides a method for preparing a sequencing library from a ribonucleic acid (RNA) sample. ...
2023Functional peaks-over-threshold analysis
Anthony Christopher Davison, Raphaël Gérard Théodore Michel Marie de Deloÿe et Fourcade de Fondeville
Peaks-over-threshold analysis using the generalised Pareto distribution is widely applied in modelling tails of univariate random variables, but much information may be lost when complex extreme events are studied using univariate results. In this paper, w ...
WILEY2022Causal modelling of heavy-tailed variables and confounders with application to river flow
Anthony Christopher Davison, Valérie Chavez
Confounding variables are a recurrent challenge for causal discovery and inference. In many situations, complex causal mechanisms only manifest themselves in extreme events, or take simpler forms in the extremes. Stimulated by data on extreme river flows a ...
SPRINGER2022Multiple testing with test statistics following heavy-tailed distributions
In multiple testing problems where the components come from a mixture model of noise and true effect, we seek to first test for the existence of the non-zero components, and then identify the true alternatives under a fixed significance level . Two ...
EPFL2021Local Emergence of Peregrine Solitons: Experiments and Theory
It has been shown analytically that Peregrine solitons emerge locally from a universal mechanism in the so-called semiclassical limit of the one-dimensional focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation. Experimentally, this limit corresponds to the strongly non ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2021Comparing spatio-temporal networks of intermittent avalanche events: Experiment, model, and empirical data
Relaxational processes in many complex systems often occur in the form of avalanches resulting from internal cascades from across the system scale. Here, we probe the space, time, and magnitude signatures of avalanching behavior using a network of temporal ...
2020Dynamics and clogging of colloidal monolayers magnetically driven through a heterogeneous landscape
We combine experiments and numerical simulations to investigate the emergence of clogging in a system of interacting paramagnetic colloidal particles driven against a disordered landscape of larger obstacles. We consider a single aperture in a landscape of ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2020Partial safety factor format for the resistance of structural concrete considering multiple failure modes
Aurelio Muttoni, Qianhui Yu, Miguel Fernández Ruiz
In this paper, the applicability of the Partial Safety Factor Format (PSFF) of EN1992-1-1:2004 (Eurocode 2 for Concrete Structures) to the reliability verification of structural concrete resistance involving multiple failure modes is investigated. This is ...
