TIC-TAC: A Framework for Improved Covariance Estimation in Deep Heteroscedastic Regression

Mathieu Salzmann, Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Megh Hiren Shukla

Deep heteroscedastic regression involves jointly optimizing the mean and covariance of the predicted distribution using the negative log-likelihood. However, recent works show that this may result in sub-optimal convergence due to the challenges associated ...

Global Soil Hydraulic Properties dataset based on legacy site observations and robust parameterization

Sara Bonetti, Dani Or

The representation of land surface processes in hydrological and climatic models critically depends on the soil water characteristics curve (SWCC) that defines the plant availability and water storage in the vadose zone. Despite the availability of SWCC da ...

Microstructural evolution and mechanical property development with nickel addition in low-carbon weld butt joints

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Gaojun Mao, Rui Cao

Four metal powder flux-cored wires with added nickel (Ni) were designed to systematically investigate how Ni influences the microstructure and toughness in low-carbon bainitic weld metals (WMs). The microstructure was safely predicted by utilizing reasonab ...

Guastavino design of the 1909 thin brick dome of the Cathedral of St John the Divine.

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet

In 1909, Rafael Guastavino Jr. designed the 93-foot-wide dome of the Cathedral of St John the Divine, Harlem, NY. As the thinnest brick shell in the world, the dome is also a clear example of construction efficiency and material optimization. This paper re ...

ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINTS AND LIFESTYLE ARCHETYPES: EXPLORING DIMENSIONS OF CONSUMPTION AND THE TRANSFORMATION NEEDED TO ACHIEVE URBAN SUSTAINABILITY

To achieve ecological sustainability, significant and absolute reductions are needed in demand on nature’s services to yield resources and assimilate wastes. Estimates range from a factor of five to ten. This translates to an 80% to 90% reduction in energy ...

Great Balls of Fire: A probabilistic approach to quantify the hazard related to ballistics – A case study at La Fossa volcano, Vulcano Island, Italy

Pierino Lestuzzi

We present a probabilistic approach to quantify the hazard posed by volcanic ballistic projectiles (VBP) and their potential impact on the built environment. A model named Great Balls of Fire (GBF) is introduced to describe ballistic trajectories of VBPs a ...

Subfossil peatland trees as proxies for Holocene palaeohydrology and palaeoclimate

Luca Bragazza

Due to the scarcity of reliable and highly resolved moisture proxies covering much of the Holocene, there has been increased interest in the study of living and subfossil peatland trees sensitive to gradual and extreme changes in hydrology, precipitation, ...

The Urban Diffusion of Local Direct Democracy between Switzerland and the United States

Thomas Charles Marie Pierre Favre-Bulle

In this chapter I expose how direct democracy instruments based on the ballot (referendum, popular initiative, recall), as opposed to assembly based direct democracy, have developed in Switzerland and have been adopted by more than 20 US states as an answe ...
