Efficient Data Valuation Approximation in Federated Learning: A Sampling-based Approach
Federated learning paradigm to utilize datasets across multiple data providers. In FL, cross-silo data providers often hesitate to share their high-quality dataset unless their data value can be fairly assessed. Shapley value (SV) has been advocated as the standard metric for data...
Emergent topological phases and coexistence of gapless and spectral-localized Floquet quantum spin Hall states via electron-phonon interaction
Dans ce travail, a thorough exploration has been carried out to unravel the role of electron-phonon interaction (EPI) in a Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang (BHZ) quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulator subjected to a time-periodic step drive. It is observed that upon inclusion of the EPI,...
An Intersection Product for the Polytope Algebra
We introduce a new multiplication for the polytope algebra, defined via the intersection of polytopes. After establishing the foundational properties of this intersection product, we investigate finite-dimensional subalgebras that arise naturally from this construction. These subalgebras can be regarded as volumetric analogues...
Transition mechanisms in hypersonic wind-tunnel nozzles: a methodological approach using global linear stability analysis
Base-flow computations and stability analyses are performed for a hypersonic wind tunnel nozzle at a Mach number of 6. Isothermal and adiabatic wall boundary conditions are investigated, and moderate stagnation conditions are used to provide representative scenarios to study the transition in...
Outer regions of galaxy clusters as a new probe to test modifications to gravity
We apply the caustic technique to samples of galaxy clusters stacked in redshift space to estimate the gravitational potential in the cluster’s outer region and test modifications to the standard theory of gravity. We separate 122 galaxy clusters from the HeCS-SZ, HeCS-redMapper,...
Wafer-Scale Characterization of Al/AlxOy/Al Josephson Junctions at Room Temperature
Josephson junctions (JJs) are the key element of many devices operating at cryogenic temperatures. Development of time-efficient wafer-scale JJ characterization for process optimization and control of JJ fabrication is essential. Such statistical characterization has to rely on room temperature techniques since cryogenic...
Moving mountains: grazing agents drive terracette formation on steep hillslopes
Terracettes, striking, step-like landforms that stripe steep, vegetated hillslopes, have puzzled scientists for more than a century. Competing hypotheses invoke either slow mass-wasting or the relentless trampling of grazing animals, yet no mechanistic model has linked hoof-scale behavior to landscape-scale form. Here...
Evaluating Meta-Regression Techniques: A Simulation Study on Heterogeneity in Location and Time
Dans ce document, we conduct a simulation study to evaluate conventional meta-regression approaches (study-level random, fixed, and mixed effects) against seven methodology specifications new to meta-regressions that control joint heterogeneity in location and time (including a new one that we introduce). Nous...
Decidability Problems for Micro-Stipula
Micro-Stipula is a stateful calculus in which clauses can be activated either through interactions with the external environment or by the evaluation of time expressions. Despite the apparent simplicity of its syntax and operational model, the combination of state evolution, time reasoning,...
Electronic Paddlewheels Impact the Dynamics of Superionic Conduction in AgI
Solid-state ion conductors hold promise as next generation battery materials. To realize their full potential, an understanding of atomic-scale ion conduction mechanisms is needed, including ionic and electronic degrees of freedom. Molecular simulations can create such an understanding, cependant, including a description...
