Correlation between Electrochemical Relaxations and Morphologies of Conducting Polymer Dendrites by Antoine Baron, Enrique H. Balaguera, Sébastien Pecqueur

“…Correlations are established between dispersive capacitances of dendritic morphologies and growth duration, independently from exogenous physical variables: distance, evaporation or aging. Deviation of the anomalous capacitance from the conventional Debye dielectric relaxation can be programmed, as the growth controls the dispersion coefficient of the dendrite's constant-phase elements relaxation. …”

A Semantic Generalization of Shannon’s Information Theory and Applications by Chenguang Lu

“…The improvements in machine learning methods involve multi-label learning and classification, maximum mutual information classification, mixture models, and solving latent variables. Furthermore, insights from statistical physics are discussed: Shannon information is similar to free energy; semantic information to free energy in local equilibrium systems; and information efficiency to the efficiency of free energy in performing work. …”

DC algorithm for estimation of sparse Gaussian graphical models. by Tomokaze Shiratori, Yuichi Takano

“…Specifically, we convert the cardinality constraint into an equivalent constraint based on the largest-K norm, and reformulate the resultant constrained optimization problem into an unconstrained penalty form with a DC (difference of convex functions) representation. To solve this problem efficiently, we design a DC algorithm in which the graphical lasso algorithm is repeatedly executed to solve convex optimization subproblems. …”

Time-varying MVAR algorithms for directed connectivity analysis: Critical comparison in simulations and benchmark EEG data. by Mattia F Pagnotta, Gijs Plomp

“…Results from numerical simulations and from benchmark EEG recordings showed that: i) across a broad range of model orders all algorithms correctly reproduced patterns of interactions; ii) signal downsampling degraded connectivity estimation accuracy for most algorithms, although in some cases downsampling was shown to reduce variability in the estimates by lowering the number of parameters in the model; iii) single-trial modeling followed by averaging showed optimal performance with larger adaptation coefficients than previously suggested, and showed slower adaptation speeds than multi-trial modeling. …”
