Measuring Membership Privacy on Aggregate Location Time-Series [PDF]
While location data is extremely valuable for various applications, disclosing it prompts serious threats to individuals' privacy. To limit such concerns, organizations often provide analysts with aggregate time-series that indicate, e.g., how many ...

Tropical Tree Branch-Leaf Nutrient Scaling Relationships Vary With Sampling Location
Bivariate relationships between plant tissue nutrient concentration have largely been studied across broad environmental scales regardless of their covariation with soil and climate.

Irregular sampling with unknown locations [PDF]
This paper is concerned with finding the locations of an irregularly sampled finite discrete-time band-limited signal. First a geometrical approach is described and is transformed into an optimization problem. Due to the structure of the problem, multiple solutions exist and are shifts of each other.

Information-theoretic analysis of realistic odor plumes: What cues are useful for determining location? [PDF]
Many species rely on olfaction to navigate towards food sources or mates. Olfactory navigation is a challenging task since odor environments are typically turbulent.

Design of general-purpose sampling strategies for geometric shape measurement [PDF]
Quality inspection is a preliminary step for different further analyses (process monitoring, control and optimisation) and requires one to select a measuring strategy, i.e., number and location of measurement points.
