An Efficient Primal-Dual Prox Method for Non-Smooth Optimization [PDF]
, 2013 We study the non-smooth optimization problems in machine learning, where both the loss function and the regularizer are non-smooth functions. Previous studies on efficient empirical loss minimization assume either a smooth loss function or a strongly ...

Flux Analysis in Process Models via Causality
, 2010 We present an approach for flux analysis in process algebra models of biological systems. We perceive flux as the flow of resources in stochastic simulations. We resort to an established correspondence between event structures, a broadly recognised model

The importance of wild meat and freshwater fish for children's nutritional intake in the Congo Basin
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Wild meat and freshwater fish are widely consumed in the Congo Basin, but in some areas, they are at risk of disappearing due to unsustainable hunting and fishing and changes in their habitat. Wild meat is also at risk of being eliminated from local diets due to potential policy changes such as wild meat bans.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Weak phenotypic and genetic associations between resistance to dicamba and 2,4‐D suggest that different nontarget‐site mechanisms contribute to these traits in an Amaranthus tuberculatus population from Illinois. Abstract BACKGROUND Amaranthus tuberculatus (Moq.) Sauer (waterhemp) has emerged as one of several weed species that is resistant to ...

Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.Australian public debates about race have featured intense contests about free speech and identity, including about the federal Racial Discrimination Act (RDA). While these developments may be understood as reflecting the contemporary ascendency of “culture war” politics, they may in fact follow a familiar pattern of political contestation around ...

Impact of obscured data on species distribution models
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The lack of knowledge about geographic distribution and environmental preference can hinder conservation efforts for rare and threatened species. Open‐source databases provide an opportunity to address these knowledge gaps through the geographic information they hold on species worldwide.

Are climate change adaptation strategies working? A call to expedite learning
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Evidence is lacking for what constitutes effective climate change adaptation strategies to successfully conserve and steward ecosystems. Yet we urgently need this information to develop robust adaptation strategies to keep pace with unprecedented change, given our limited resources to do so.

Addressing Model Vulnerability to Distributional Shifts over Image Transformation Sets
, 2019 We are concerned with the vulnerability of computer vision models to distributional shifts. We formulate a combinatorial optimization problem that allows evaluating the regions in the image space where a given model is more vulnerable, in terms of image ...
