Vendi information gain for active learning and its application to ecology
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract While monitoring biodiversity through camera traps has become an important endeavour for ecological research, identifying species in the captured image data remains a major bottleneck due to limited labelling resources. Active learning—a machine learning paradigm that selects the most informative data to label and train a predictive model ...

On the asymptotic Bieberbach conjecture
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1982 The set S consists of complex functions f, univalent in the open unit disk, with f(0)=f'(0)-1=0. We use the asymptotic behavior of the positive semidefinite FitzGerald matrix to show that there is an absolute constant N0 such that, for any f(z)=z+?n ...

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.

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015 We propose a Newton-gradient-hybrid optimization method for fluid topology optimization. The method accelerates convergence and reduces computation time. In addition, the fluid-solid boundaries are clearly distinguished.

The Story(line) So Far: A Survey on Storyline Visualization
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Storyline visualizations model narratives as temporal networks, using x‐monotone lines to represent entities and their interactions over time. This technique offers an intuitive way to reveal structural patterns over time, such as character co‐occurrence and narrative flow.

A Splitting Architecture for Exact Reduced Coulomb Friction
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Existing approaches to frictional contact dynamics typically either modify the Coulomb law to improve numerical robustness or solve the exact law in a fully coupled monolithic form. However, in its reduced form, exact Coulomb friction can be written as a cone complementarity problem with an augmented velocity, which reveals a natural split ...

A Quantile Model of Firm Investment
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Are firms risk averse? We propose a dynamic model of firm investment under uncertainty that captures firms' risk attitudes through quantile preferences. The firm maximizes its present value, defined as current profits and investment plus the discounted value of the τ$\tau$‐quantile of its value next period.

Structural Results on the HMLasso
AxiomsHMLasso (Lasso with High Missing Rate) is a useful technique for sparse regression when a high-dimensional design matrix contains a large number of missing data. To solve HMLasso, an appropriate positive semidefinite symmetric matrix must be obtained. In
