In this article, I focus on digital scientific archives which are made up of the leftovers of science, such as drafts, obsolete instruments, photographs, documentation, etc. The artifacts exhibited in such collections were neither meant to be representatio ...
Architectural competitions have a long tradition in Switzerland that is usually cited as one of the European countries with the largest numbers of competition procedures per year, along with Germany and some Northern countries – Finland, Denmark and Sweden ...
Within the current context of globalisation, trasnationalism has acquired importance as a social phenomenon and an object of study, since it shows the value that the diasporas' own decentralized mechanisms have in promoting development in the countries of ...
In this paper, we consider the problem of sequentially optimizing a black-box function f based on noisy samples and bandit feedback. We assume that f is smooth in the sense of having a bounded norm in some reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS), yield ...
The group testing problem consists of determining a sparse subset of a set of items that are ``defective'' based on a set of possibly noisy tests, and arises in areas such as medical testing, fault detection, communication protocols, pattern matching, and ...
We show that smooth, radially symmetric wave maps U from R2+1 to a compact target manifold N, where ∂rU and ∂tU have compact support for any fixed time, scatter. The result will follow from the work of Christodoulou ...
In this paper, we study the information-theoretic limits of community detection in the symmetric two-community stochastic block model, with intra-community and inter-community edge probabilities na and nb respectively. We consider the ...
We study the semilinear wave equation ∂t2ψ−Δψ=∣ψ∣p−1ψ for p>3 with radial data in three spatial dimensions. There exists an explicit solution which blows up at t=T>0 given by $\displaystyl ...
A novel noise reduction method and corresponding technique are presented for improving turbulence measurements with acoustic Doppler velocimeters (ADVs) commonly used in field studies of coastal and nearshore regions, rivers, lakes, and estuaries. This bif ...
