Reach For the Arcs: Reconstructing Surfaces from SDFs via Tangent Points
We introduce an algorithm to reconstruct a mesh from discrete samples of a shape's Signed Distance Function (SDF). A simple geometric reinterpretation of the SDF lets us formulate the problem through a point cloud, from which a surface can be extracted wit ...
2024Co-Design Optimisation of Morphing Topology and Control of Winged Drones
Dario Floreano, Valentin Wüest, Fabio Bergonti
The design and control of winged aircraft and drones is an iterative process aimed at identifying a compromise of mission-specific costs and constraints. When agility is required, shape-shifting (morphing) drones represent an efficient solution. However, m ...
2024Electromagnetic time reversal for online partial discharge location in power cables: Influence of interfering reflections from grid components
Marcos Rubinstein, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri
In online single-sided partial discharge (PD) location, the measured PD reflection patterns are affected by the characteristics of all the components of the associated power network. This paper analyses the performance of a PD location method based on elec ...
2024Decentralized learning made easy with DecentralizePy
Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Rafael Pereira Pires, Akash Balasaheb Dhasade, Rishi Sharma, Milos Vujasinovic
Decentralized learning (DL) has gained prominence for its potential benefits in terms of scalability, privacy, and fault tolerance. It consists of many nodes that coordinate without a central server and exchange millions of parameters in the inherently ite ...
2023Multi-agent reinforcement learning with graph convolutional neural networks for optimal bidding strategies of generation units in electricity markets
Finding optimal bidding strategies for generation units in electricity markets would result in higher profit. However, it is a challenging problem due to the system uncertainty which is due to the lack of knowledge of the strategies of other generation uni ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2023Beyond Spectral Gap: The Role of the Topology in Decentralized Learning
Martin Jaggi, Thijs Vogels, Hadrien Hendrikx
In data-parallel optimization of machine learning models, workers collaborate to improve their estimates of the model: more accurate gradients allow them to use larger learning rates and optimize faster. In the decentralized setting, in which workers commu ...
