Revisiting the Generality of the Rank-based Human Mobility Model

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Darshan Santani

Location-based social networks, in addition to revealing users' online social network, also informs users' actual movements in the offline physical world. Due to this, they have recently been used in large-scale mobility and urban studies. In this paper, u ...

Mapping extreme snowfalls in the French Alps using max-stable processes

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume

The evaluation of extreme snowfalls is an important challenge for hazard management in mountainous regions. In this paper, the extreme snowfall data acquired from 40 meteorological stations in the French Alps since 1966 are analyzed using spatial extreme s ...

Scaling body size fluctuations

Andrea Rinaldo, Andrea Giometto, Francesco Carrara, Amos Maritan, Florian Altermatt

The size of an organism matters for its metabolic, growth, mortality, and other vital rates. Scale-free community size spectra (i.e., size distributions regardless of species) are routinely observed in natural ecosystems and are the product of intra- and i ...

Measurement of Tc distribution in NbSn CICC

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Ciro Calzolaio

Knowledge of the actual Nb3Sn filaments' thermal strain, epsilon(th), in a cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) is essential to predict the CICC performance in operation starting from the strand scaling laws for the critical current density J(c)(B, T, epsilon ...

Are there "dragon-kings" events (i.e. genuine outliers) among extreme avalanches?

Christophe Ancey

Predicting the occurrence and spatial extent of extreme avalanches is a longstanding issue. Using field data pooled from various sites within the same mountain range, authors showed that the avalanche size distribution can be described using either an extr ...

On Optimal Two Sample Homogeneity Tests for Finite Alphabets

Jayakrishnan Unnikrishnan

Suppose we are given two independent strings of data from a known finite alphabet. We are interested in testing the null hypothesis that both the strings were drawn from the same distribution, assuming that the samples within each string are mutually indep ...

Evidence for Alternative Hypotheses

Stephan Morgenthaler, Robert Staudte

Most researchers want evidence for the direction of an effect, not evidence against a point null hypothesis. Such evidence is ideally on a scale that is easily interpretable, with an accompanying standard error. Further, the evidence from identical experim ...

Extreme rainfall in West Africa: A regional modeling

Juliette Ferial Blanchet, Adnan Ali

In a world of increasing exposure of populations to natural hazards, the mapping of extreme rainfall remains a key subject of study. Such maps are required for both flood risk management and civil engineering structure design, the challenge being to take i ...

A ratiometric fluorescence sensor for caffeine

Kay Severin, Albert Ruggi, Nicolas Luisier, Nicolas David Gaeng, Laurane Favre

The dye disodium 3,4:3’,4’-bibenzo[b]thiophene-2,2’-disulfonate can be used as molecular probe for the fluorimetric detection of caffeine in aqueous solution. The fluorescence response is attributed to non-covalent interactions of caffeine with the dye in ...

Compromise Pitman estimators

Nicolas Fournier

In this paper, we investigate the construction of compromise estimators of location and scale, by averaging over several models selected among a specified large set of possible models. The weight given to each distribution is based on the profile likelihoo ...
