MAGIC observations of the February 2014 flare of 1ES 1011+496 and ensuing constraint of the EBL density

Context. During February-March 2014, the MAGIC telescopes observed the high-frequency peaked BL Lac 1ES 1011 + 496 (z = 0.212) in flaring state at very-high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV). The flux reached a level of more than ten times higher than any previous ...

Seasonality in cholera dynamics: A rainfall-driven model explains the wide range of patterns in endemic areas

Enrico Bertuzzo, Theo Baracchini

Seasonal patterns in cholera dynamics exhibit pronounced variability across geographical regions, showing single or multiple peaks at different times of the year. Although multiple hypotheses related to local climate variables have been proposed, an unders ...

Proximity Operators for Phase Retrieval

Michaël Unser, Frédéric Courbin, Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez

We present a new formulation of a family of proximity operators that generalize the projector step for phase retrieval. These proximity operators for noisy intensity measurements can replace the classical "noise-free" projection in any projection-based alg ...

An Information Gain Formulation for Active Volumetric 3D Reconstruction

Davide Scaramuzza

We consider the problem of next-best view selection for volumetric reconstruction of an object by a mobile robot equipped with a camera. Based on a probabilistic volumetric map that is built in real time, the robot can quantify the expected information gai ...

Score Calibration in Face Recognition

Sébastien Marcel

This paper presents an evaluation of verification and calibration performance of a face recognition system based on inter-session variability modeling. As an extension to the calibration through linear transformation of scores, categorical calibration is i ...

Accurate Directional Inference for Vector Parameters in Linear Exponential Families

Anthony Christopher Davison

We consider inference on a vector-valued parameter of interest in a linear exponential family, in the presence of a finite-dimensional nuisance parameter. Based on higher-order asymptotic theory for likelihood, we propose a directional test whose p-value i ...

Efficient inference for spatial extreme value processes associated to log-Gaussian random functions

Jonathan A. Tawn, Jennifer Lynne Wadsworth

Max-stable processes arise as the only possible nontrivial limits for maxima of affinely normalized identically distributed stochastic processes, and thus form an important class of models for the extreme values of spatial processes. Until recently, infere ...

Recommending software upgrades with Mojave

Willy Zwaenepoel, Ricardo Bianchini, Olivier Crameri

Software upgrades are frequent. Unfortunately, many of the upgrades either fail or misbehave. We argue that many of these failures can be avoided for users of the new version of the software by exploiting the characteristics of the upgrade and feedback fro ...

LLR-based Successive Cancellation List Decoding of Polar Codes

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming

We present an LLR-based implementation of the successive cancellation list (SCL) decoder. To this end, we associate each decoding path with a metric which (i) is a monotone function of the path’s likelihood and (ii) can be computed efﬁciently from the chan ...
