Matrix Convex Sets Without Absolute Extreme Points [PDF]
This article shows the existence of a class of closed bounded matrix convex sets which do not have absolute extreme points. The sets we consider are noncommutative sets, $K_X$, formed by taking matrix convex combinations of a single tuple $X$. In the case that $X$ is a tuple of compact operators with no nontrivial finite dimensional reducing subspaces,

Extreme-Point Symmetric Mode Decomposition Method for Data Analysis [PDF]
An extreme-point symmetric mode decomposition (ESMD) method is proposed to improve the Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT) through the following prospects: (1) The sifting process is implemented by the aid of 1, 2, 3 or more inner interpolating curves, which ...

Extreme points of the set of density matrices with positive partial transpose [PDF]
We present a necessary and sufficient condition for a finite dimensional density matrix to be an extreme point of the convex set of density matrices with positive partial transpose with respect to a subsystem. We also give an algorithm for finding such extreme points and illustrate this by some examples.

Electrocardiogram Signal Denoising Using Extreme-Point Symmetric Mode Decomposition and Nonlocal Means [PDF]
Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals contain a great deal of essential information which can be utilized by physicians for the diagnosis of heart diseases. Unfortunately, ECG signals are inevitably corrupted by noise which will severely affect the accuracy of

The GenePOC Platform, a Rational Solution for Extreme Point-of-Care Testing [PDF]
Extreme point-of-care (POC) testing for infections, as performed (endured) in low-resource settings, developing countries, tropical areas, or in conditions following emergency crises or natural disasters, must be undertaken under environmental, logistic,

Scalable Surface Reconstruction from Point Clouds with Extreme Scale and Density Diversity [PDF]
In this paper we present a scalable approach for robustly computing a 3D surface mesh from multi-scale multi-view stereo point clouds that can handle extreme jumps of point density (in our experiments three orders of magnitude).

Extreme change-point detection [PDF]
We examine rules for predicting whether a point in $\mathbb{R}$ generated from a 50-50 mixture of two different probability distributions came from one distribution or the other, given limited (or no) information on the two distributions, and, as clues ...
