Diffusion gradient boosting for networked learning

Using duality arguments from optimization theory, this work develops an effective distributed gradient boosting strategy for inference and classification by networked clusters of learners. By sharing local dual variables with their immediate neighbors thro ...

Exact Diffusion for Distributed Optimization and Learning---Part II: Convergence Analysis

Ali H. Sayed, Bicheng Ying, Kun Yuan

Part I of this work developed the exact diffusion algorithm to remove the bias that is characteristic of distributed solutions for deterministic optimization problems. The algorithm was shown to be applicable to a larger set of combination policies than ea ...

Exact diffusion strategy for optimization by networked agents

Ali H. Sayed, Bicheng Ying, Kun Yuan

This work develops a distributed optimization algorithm with guaranteed exact convergence for a broad class of left-stochastic combination policies. The resulting exact diffusion strategy is shown to have a wider stability range and superior convergence pe ...

Learning Externally Modulated Dynamical Systems

Aude Billard, Nicolas Sommer, Klas Jonas Alfred Kronander

Dynamical Systems (DS) are often used to represent motion, with the advantage of being easy to learn from demonstrations. We present a method to modulate DS depending on an external signal, extending our previous work on Locally Modulated DS (LMDS, Kronand ...

Characterization of Contour Mode Resonators

Andrea Lozzi

In this report, the in uence of several geometric parameters on the performance of aluminum nitride (AlN) contour mode resonators (CMR) is investigated at dierent frequencies (182 MHz, 460 MHz and 570 MHz). Main in uence is the anchor width (Wa) and the an ...

Community Building with Co-located Social Media: A Field Experiment with Syrian Refugees

Denis Gillet, Adrian Christian Holzer

While co-located social media previously has been employed to enhance interaction in community building activities in previous work, its range of effects have not been quantitatively described. In this study, we introduce a co-located social media app call ...

Caradoc: a pragmatic approach to PDF parsing and validation

PDF has become a de facto standard for exchanging electronic documents, for visualization as well as for printing. However, it has also become a common delivery channel for malware, and previous work has highlighted features that lead to security issues. I ...

Variable Duration Movement Encoding with Minimal Intervention Control

Sylvain Calinon

Programming by Demonstration (PbD) offers a user-friendly way of skill transfer from human to robot. Typically, demonstration data do not contain the control inputs required to reproduce the demonstrated skill. These control commands can be obtained from a ...

Intégration des critères de durabilité dans le processus de conception des constructions temporaires à vocation événementielle

Loïc Vivien Fumeaux

Sustainability is a constant search for balance between the needs and the means implemented, which implies meeting the needs present without compromising those of generations to come. Later generations will indeed imperative to consider. So that their scop ...

High mobility over the life course: evidence from a longitudinal study in Europe

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Gil Viry

Commuting and travelling extensively for job reasons both helps and challenges people to balance competing demands of work and personal life. People do not have equal resources and possibilities to benefit from high mobility. Globalisation, labour flexibil ...
