Categorized Bandits

We introduce a new stochastic multi-armed bandit setting where arms are grouped inside ``ordered'' categories. The motivating example comes from e-commerce, where a customer typically has a greater appetence for items of a specific well-identified…

Interpolating between Optimal Transport and MMD using Sinkhorn Divergences

Comparing probability distributions is a fundamental problem in data sciences. Simple norms and divergences such as the total variation and the relative entropy only compare densities in a point-wise manner and fail to capture the geometric nature…

Energy-optimal strokes for multi-link microswimmers: Purcell's loops and Taylor's waves reconciled

Abstract Micron-scale swimmers move in the realm of negligible inertia, dominated by viscous drag forces. In this paper, we formulate the leading-order dynamics of a slender multi-link ( N -link) microswimmer assuming small-amplitude undulations…

Novel insight on molecular dynamics trajectories : local equilibrium viewed by kappa-segmentation

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations can produce nowadays huge amount of data using high-throughput CPU/GPU clusters. However, the systematic and routine use of MD simulations for a study of the large molecules of real biological systems is still…

Patch redundancy in images: a statistical testing framework and some applications

In this work we introduce a statistical framework in order to analyze the spatial redundancy in natural images. This notion of spatial redundancy must be defined locally and thus we give some examples of functions (auto-similarity and template…

JPEG Grid Detection based on the Number of DCT Zeros and its Application to Automatic and Localized Forgery Detection

This work proposes a novel method for detecting JPEG compression, as well as its grid origin, based on counting the number of zeros in the DCT of 8 × 8 blocks. When applied locally, the same method can be used to detect grid alignment abnormalities…

Center of pressure characteristics from quiet standing measures to predict the risk of falling in older adults: a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis

Background: Falling is the most common accident of daily living and the second most prevalent cause of accidental death in the world. The complex nature of risk factors associated with falling makes those at risk amongst the elderly population…

Estimating Center of Mass Trajectory in Quiet Standing: a Review

As falls prevalence increases with the aging of the population, early detection of balance degradation is of great importance for efficient prevention and treatment. This work compares a wide range of state-of-the-art methods to estimate the…
