This laconic discourse uses the Aristotelian authority to define the role of the analogical procedure in the government of the architectural composition. Respecting its ambiguous balance between mathematical method and attitude of the imagination, analogy ...
Wasserstein distances are metrics on probability distributions inspired by the problem of optimal mass transportation. Roughly speaking, they measure the minimal effort required to reconfigure the probability mass of one distribution in order to recover th ...
The failure detector approach for solving distributed computing problems has been celebrated for its modularity. This approach allows the construction of algorithms using abstract failure detection mechanisms, defined by axiomatic properties, as building b ...
RDF and SPARQL are established standards for data interchange and querying on the Web. While they have been shown to be useful and applicable in many scenarios, they are not sufficiently adequate for dealing with streams of data and their intrinsic continu ...
We develop a canonical framework for the study of the problem of registration of multiple point processes subjected to warping, known as the problem of separation of amplitude and phase variation. The amplitude variation of a real random function {Y(x) : x ...
Spin Wave Devices (SWDs) are promising beyond-CMOS candidates. Unlike traditional charge-based technologies, SWDs use spin as information carrier that propagates in waves. In this scenario, the logic primitive for computation is the majority gate. T ...
Any finite, separately convex, positively homogeneous function on R2 is convex. This was first established by the first author ["Direct methods in calculus of variations", Springer-Verlag (1989)]. Here we give a new and concise proof of this re ...
We study the relation between various notions of exterior convexity introduced in [S. Bandyopadhyay, B. Dacorogna and S. Sil, J. Eur. Math. Soc. 17 (2015) 1009-1039.] with the classical notions of rank one convexity, quasiconvexity and polyconvexity. To th ...
We propose and study the notions of behaviour type and composition operator making a first step towards the definition of a formal framework for studying behaviour composition in a setting sufficiently general to provide insight into how the component-base ...
The conditional indirect utility of many random utility maximization (RUM) discrete choice models is specified as a sum of an index V depending on observables and an independent random term. In general, the universe of RUM consistent models is much larger, ...
