Distributed Computing on Distributed Memory
2018
Distributed computation is formalized in several description languages for computation, as e.g. Unified Modeling Language (UML), Specification and Description Language (SDL), and Concurrent Abstract State Machines (CASM). All these languages focus on the distribution of computation, which is somewhat the same as concurrent computation. In addition, there is also the aspect of distribution of state, which is often neglected. Distribution of state is most commonly represented by communication between active agents. This paper argues that it is desirable to abstract from the communication and to consider abstract distributed state. This includes semantic handling of conflict resolution, e.g. i…
Intent Detection System Based on Word Embeddings
2018
Intent detection is one of the main tasks of a dialogue system. In this paper we present our intent detection system that is based on FastText word embeddings and neural network classifier. We find a significant improvement in the FastText sentence vectorization. The results show that our intent detection system provides state-of-the-art results on three English datasets outperforming many popular services.
Convolutional Neural Networks for the Identification of Regions of Interest in PET Scans: A Study of Representation Learning for Diagnosing Alzheimer…
2017
When diagnosing patients suffering from dementia based on imaging data like PET scans, the identification of suitable predictive regions of interest (ROIs) is of great importance. We present a case study of 3-D Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for the detection of ROIs in this context, just using voxel data, without any knowledge given a priori. Our results on data from the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) suggest that the predictive performance of the method is on par with that of state-of-the-art methods, with the additional benefit of potential insights into affected brain regions.
The Ground State Electronic Energy of Benzene.
2020
We report on the findings of a blind challenge devoted to determining the frozen-core, full configuration interaction (FCI) ground state energy of the benzene molecule in a standard correlation-consistent basis set of double-$\zeta$ quality. As a broad international endeavour, our suite of wave function-based correlation methods collectively represents a diverse view of the high-accuracy repertoire offered by modern electronic structure theory. In our assessment, the evaluated high-level methods are all found to qualitatively agree on a final correlation energy, with most methods yielding an estimate of the FCI value around $-863$ m$E_{\text{H}}$. However, we find the root-mean-square devia…
A Function Algebra Providing New Mergelyan Type Theorems in Several Complex Variables
2019
For compact sets $K\subset \mathbb C^{d}$, we introduce a subalgebra $A_{D}(K)$ of $A(K)$, which allows us to obtain Mergelyan type theorems for products of planar compact sets as well as for graphs of functions.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), antisociality and delinquent behavior over the lifespan
2020
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is closely linked to the development of conduct problems during socialization in early life and to an increased risk for antisocial activities and delinquency over the lifespan. The interaction between ADHD and common comorbid disorders like substance use disorders as well as changing environmental conditions could mediate the course of antisocial and delinquent behavior with increasing age. However, this complex interaction is only partially understood so far. This review presents current knowledge about the association of ADHD with antisociality and the development of delinquent behavior. Thereby, the relationships between ADHD, conduct diso…
Some remarks on unconditionally convergent multipliers
2017
We present some results concerning the representation of unconditionally convergent multipliers, including a reformulation of a conjecture of Balazs and Stoeva.
Mond's conjecture for maps between curves
2017
A theorem by D. Mond shows that if f:(C,0)→C2,0 is finite and has has degree one onto its image (Y, 0), then the Ae-codimension is less than or equal to the image Milnor number μI(f), with equality if and only if (Y, 0) is weighted homogeneous. Here we generalize this result to the case of a map germ f:(X,0)→C2,0, where (X, 0) is a plane curve singularity.
On Severi Type Inequalities for Irregular Surfaces
2017
Let X be a minimal surface of general type and maximal Albanese dimension with irregularity q ≥ 2. We show that K2 X ≥ 4χ(OX) + 4(q − 2) if K2 X < 9 2 χ(OX), and also obtain the characterization of the equality. As a consequence, we prove a conjecture of Manetti on the geography of irregular surfaces if K2 X ≥ 36(q−2) or χ(OX) ≥ 8(q−2), and we also prove a conjecture that the surfaces of general type and maximal Albanese dimension with K2 X = 4χ(OX) are exactly the resolution of double covers of abelian surfaces branched over ample divisors with at worst simple singularities.
From Wigner-Yanase-Dyson conjecture to Carlen-Frank-Lieb conjecture
2020
Abstract In this paper we study the joint convexity/concavity of the trace functions Ψ p , q , s ( A , B ) = Tr ( B q 2 K ⁎ A p K B q 2 ) s , p , q , s ∈ R , where A and B are positive definite matrices and K is any fixed invertible matrix. We will give full range of ( p , q , s ) ∈ R 3 for Ψ p , q , s to be jointly convex/concave for all K. As a consequence, we confirm a conjecture of Carlen, Frank and Lieb. In particular, we confirm a weaker conjecture of Audenaert and Datta and obtain the full range of ( α , z ) for α-z Renyi relative entropies to be monotone under completely positive trace preserving maps. We also give simpler proofs of many known results, including the concavity of Ψ p…
