A statistical test for the Zipf's law by deviations from the Heaps' law | We explore a probabilistic model of an artistic text: words of the text are
chosen independently of each other in accordance with a discrete probability
distribution on an infinite dictionary. The words are enumerated 1, 2,
$\ldots$, and the probability of appearing the $i$'th word is asymptotically a
power function.... | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
Weakly Supervised Classification in High Energy Physics | As machine learning algorithms become increasingly sophisticated to exploit
subtle features of the data, they often become more dependent on simulations.
This paper presents a new approach called weakly supervised classification in
which class proportions are the only input into the machine learning algorithm.

Profit Driven Decision Trees for Churn Prediction | Customer retention campaigns increasingly rely on predictive models to detect

Carrier loss mechanisms in textured crystalline Si-based solar cells | A quite general device analysis method that allows the direct evaluation of

The generating function for the Airy point process and a system of coupled Painlevé II equations | For a wide class of Hermitian random matrices, the limit distribution of the

Gradient-based Training of Slow Feature Analysis by Differentiable Approximate Whitening | This paper proposes Power Slow Feature Analysis, a gradient-based method to

Quantum Critical Behavior in the Asymptotic Limit of High Disorder: Entropy Stabilized NiCoCr0.8 Alloys | The behavior of matter near a quantum critical point (QCP) is one of the most

Fast, Autonomous Flight in GPS-Denied and Cluttered Environments | One of the most challenging tasks for a flying robot is to autonomously
navigate between target locations quickly and reliably while avoiding obstacles

Accumulation Bit-Width Scaling For Ultra-Low Precision Training Of Deep Networks | Efforts to reduce the numerical precision of computations in deep learning

The Berkovich realization for rigid analytic motives | We prove that the functor associating to a rigid analytic variety the

Rates of estimation for determinantal point processes | Determinantal point processes (DPPs) have wide-ranging applications in

Negative refraction in Weyl semimetals | We theoretically propose that Weyl semimetals may exhibit negative refraction

Towards Object Life Cycle-Based Variant Generation of Business Process Models | Variability management of process models is a major challenge for

Detection of sub-MeV Dark Matter with Three-Dimensional Dirac Materials | We propose the use of three-dimensional Dirac materials as targets for direct
