Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

On minimax optimization problems [PDF]
, 1982 We give a short proof that in a convex minimax optimization problem in k dimensions there exist a subset of k + 1 functions such that a solution to the minimax problem with those k + 1 functions is a solution to the minimax problem with all functions. We

Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 33, Issue 2, August 2026.ABSTRACT The Flexible and Interactive Tradeoff Elicitation (FITradeoff) method is a Multi‐Attribute Decision‐Making (MADM) approach designed to capture the preferences of a Decision Maker (DM) while minimising cognitive effort. To reduce the frequency of interactions and optimise the preference elicitation process, this paper introduces an innovative ...

Miners' Reward Elasticity and Stability of Competing Proof‐of‐Work Cryptocurrencies
International Economic Review, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 957-976, August 2026.ABSTRACT Proof‐of‐Work cryptocurrencies employ miners to sustain the system through algorithmic reward adjustments. We develop a stochastic model of the multicurrency mining and identify conditions for stable transaction speeds. Bitcoin's algorithm requires hash supply elasticity <$<$1 for stability, while ASERT remains stable for any elasticity and ...

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Automated detection and classification of marine mammal vocalizations is critical for conservation and management efforts but is hindered by limited annotated datasets and the acoustic complexity of real‐world marine environments. Data augmentation has proven to be an effective strategy to address this limitation by increasing dataset ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 3, June 2026.Abstract Atmosphere‐ocean‐land coupled forecasting systems, despite their comprehensiveness, face substantial challenges in the “predictability desert” at subseasonal to seasonal (S2S) timescales, particularly for precipitation—a variable crucial for socioeconomic activities yet of stunning spatiotemporal variance. Post‐processing methods developed for

On Noncooperative Games, Minimax Theorems and Equilibrium Problems [PDF]
In this chapter we give an overview on the theory of noncooperative games. In the first part we consider in detail for zero-sum (and constant-sum) noncooperative games under which necessary and sufficient conditions on the payoff function and different ...

Bayesian Decision Thresholds for Bushfire Warnings: Calibration and Robustness for Rare‐Event Risk
Australian &New Zealand Journal of Statistics, Volume 68, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Current bushfire warning systems communicate the probability of a warning given danger, but residents require the probability of danger given a warning. This misalignment, combined with the extreme rarity of catastrophic fires, often leads to the dangerous ‘wait and see’ behaviour.
