Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Sequential Topic Models for Mining Recurrent Activities and their Relationships

Jagannadan Varadarajan

In this thesis, we address the analysis of activities from long term data logs with an emphasis on video recordings. Starting from simple words from video, we progressively build methods to infer higher level scene semantics. The main strategies used to ac ...

Geostatistics of extremes

Anthony Christopher Davison

We describe a prototype approach to flexible modelling for maxima observed at sites in a spatial domain, based on fitting of max-stable processes derived from underlying Gaussian random fields. The models we propose have generalised extreme-value marginal ...

Interacting populations in heterogeneous environments

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

To optimally manage a metapopulation, managers and conservation biologists can favor a type of habitat spatial distribution (e.g. aggregated or random). However, the spatial distribution that provides the highest habitat occupancy remains ambiguous and num ...

Multi-resource allocation in stochastic project scheduling

Daniel Kuhn, Wolfram Wiesemann

We propose a resource allocation model for project scheduling. Our model accommodates multiple resources and decision-dependent activity durations inspired by microeconomic theory. First, we elaborate a deterministic problem formulation. In a second stage, ...

Message-Passing De-Quantization with Applications to Compressed Sensing

Ulugbek Kamilov

Estimation of a vector from quantized linear measurements is a common problem for which simple linear techniques are suboptimal—sometimes greatly so. This paper develops message-passing de-quantization (MPDQ) algorithms for minimum mean-squared error estim ...

Experimental investigation of the low-temperature features of a random Heisenberg spin chain

Joël Mesot, Krunoslav Prsa

Low-dimensional spin systems, consisting of arrays of spins arranged in chains or ladders, have been investigated intensively in recent years using both exactly solvable theoretical models as well as a variety of experimental techniques. In case of random ...

The Bounded Confidence Model Of Opinion Dynamics

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Javier Gomez Serrano

The bounded confidence model of opinion dynamics, introduced by Deffuant et al, is a stochastic model for the evolution of continuous-valued opinions within a finite group of peers. We prove that, as time goes to infinity, the opinions evolve globally into ...

Ron was wrong, Whit is right

Arjen Lenstra, Joppe Willem Bos, Thorsten Kleinjung, Maxime Augier, Christophe Wachter

We performed a sanity check of public keys collected on the web. Our main goal was to test the validity of the assumption that different random choices are made each time keys are generated. We found that the vast majority of public keys work as intended. ...

Convergence Analysis For Spectral Approximation To A Scalar Transport Equation With A Random Wave Speed

This paper is concerned with the initial-boundary value problems of scalar transport equations with uncertain transport velocities. It was demonstrated in our earlier works that regularity of the exact solutions in the random spaces (or the parametric spac ...

Modern Portfolio Theory Revisited

David Sébastien Morton de Lachapelle

In the first place the behavior of (online) traders on markets is analyzed and modeled, and it is shown that the average investor behaves as a mean-variance optimizer in finance. Within this description, transaction costs play a key role in explaining obse ...
