Perfect imaging without negative refraction
Perfect imaging has been believed to rely on negative refraction, but here we show that an ordinary positively-refracting optical medium may form perfect images as well. In particular, we establish a mathematical proof that Maxwell's fish eye in two-dimensional integrated optics makes a perfect instrument with a resolu...

Laplacian Support Vector Machines Trained in the Primal
In the last few years, due to the growing ubiquity of unlabeled data, much effort has been spent by the machine learning community to develop better understanding and improve the quality of classifiers exploiting unlabeled data. Following the manifold regularization approach, Laplacian Support Vector Machines (LapSVMs)...

Photospheric high-frequency acoustic power excess in sunspot umbra: signature of magneto-acoustic modes

The magneto-acoustic perturbations are observed as acoustic power enhancement in the sunspot umbra at high-frequency bands in the velocity component perpendicular to the magn...

On large deviations of additive functions
We prove that if two additive functions (from a certain class) take large values with roughly the same probability then they must be identical. The Kac-Kubilius model suggests that the distribution of values of a given additive function can be modeled by a sum of random variables. We show that the model is accurate (in...

An analysis of adiabatic perturbations of a perfect fluid is performed to first-order about a general FLRW background using the 1+3 covariant and gauge-invariant formalism. The analog of the Mukhanov-Sasaki variable and the canonical variables needed to quantise respectively the scalar and tensor perturbations in a gen...

Quasi-Proportional Mechanisms: Prior-free Revenue Maximization

We study a generalization of the Remote Point Problem to groups: we replace $F^n$ by $G^n$ for an arbitrary fixed group $G$. When $G...

The atmospheric charged kaon/pion ratio using seasonal variation methods
Observed since the 1950's, the seasonal effect on underground muons is a well studied phenomenon. The interaction height of incident cosmic rays changes as the temperature of the atmosphere changes, which affects the production height of mesons (mostly pions and kaons). The decay of these mesons produces muons that can...

A path algorithm for the Fused Lasso Signal Approximator
The Lasso is a very well known penalized regression model, which adds an $L_{1}$ penalty with parameter $\lambda_{1}$ on the coefficients to the squared error loss function. The Fused Lasso extends this model by also putting an $L_{1}$ penalty with parameter $\lambda_{2}$ on the difference of neighboring coefficients, ...

Regularization Techniques for Learning with Matrices
There is growing body of learning problems for which it is natural to organize the parameters into matrix, so as to appropriately regularize the parameters under some matrix norm (in order to impose some more sophisticated prior knowledge).

We report the results of a search for 12.2-GHz methanol maser emission, targeted towards 113 known 6.7-GHz methanol masers associated with 1.2-mm dust continuum emission. Observations were carried out with the Australia Telescope National Facility (ATNF) Parkes 64-m radio telescope in the period 2008 June 20 - 25. We d...

The universal galaxy cluster pressure profile from a representative sample of nearby systems (REXCESS) and the Y_SZ-M_500 relation
(abridged) We investigate the regularity of cluster pressure profiles with REXCESS, a representative sample of 33 local clusters observed with XMM-Newton. The sample spans a mass range of 10^14 M_sun <M_500<10^15 M_sun. We derive an average profile from observations scaled by mass and z according to the standard self-s...

These weak-classifiers produce a boolean response based on presence or absence in the tested image of a ?keypoint? (a kind of SURF interest point) with a descriptor sufficiently similar (...

Extracting bulk properties of self-assembling systems from small simulations
For systems that self assemble into finite-sized objects, it is sometimes convenient to compute the thermodynamics for a small system where a single assembly can form. However, we show that in the canonical ensemble the use of small systems can lead to significant finite-size effects due to the suppression of concentra...

The removal of a significant foreground contamination using newly acquired Stromgren photometry has resulted in a reduced velocity dispersion. Using t...
