Variance of operators and derivations [PDF]
The variance of a bounded linear operator $a$ on a Hilbert space $H$ at a unit vector $h$ is defined by $D_h(a)=\|ah\|^2-||^2$. We show that two operators $a$ and $b$ have the same variance at all vectors $h\in H$ if and only if there exist scalars ...

Regularizing by the Variance of the Activations' Sample-Variances
Normalization techniques play an important role in supporting efficient and often more effective training of deep neural networks. While conventional methods explicitly normalize the activations, we suggest to add a loss term instead. This new loss term encourages the variance of the activations to be stable and not vary from one random mini-batch to ...

Gini estimation under infinite variance [PDF]
We study the problems related to the estimation of the Gini index in presence of a fat-tailed data generating process, i.e. one in the stable distribution class with finite mean but infinite variance (i.e. with tail index $\alpha\in(1,2)$). We show that,

Amplitude variation in calibrated audiometer systems in Clinical Simulations
Manual pure tone audiometry is considered to be the gold standard for the assessment of hearing thresholds and has been in consistent use for a long period of time.

HEDGING (CO)VARIANCE RISK WITH VARIANCE SWAPS [PDF]
In this paper, we quantify the impact on the representative agent's welfare of the presence of derivative products spanning covariance risk. In an asset allocation framework with stochastic (co)variances, we allow the agent to invest not only in the stocks but also in the associated variance swaps.

Contrast Adaptation in Face Perception Revealed Through EEG and Behavior
Exposure to a face can produce biases in the perception of subsequent faces. Typically, these face aftereffects are studied by adapting to an individual face or category (e.g., faces of a given gender) and can result in renormalization of perceptions ...

Watermark Embedding Scheme with Variance of Chromatic Components
This paper contains the idea of inserting a watermark with the variance of color components of the image. The color image is converted into CIE color space.

Variance Theses in Ontology and Metaethics [PDF]
The chapter illustrates conceptual engineering by bringing up a number of issues in metaontology and metaethics. A prominent debate in metaontology relates to whether some existence concept is metaphysically privileged.

Quality of life and associated factors in Swiss trans people: a cross-sectional study
BackgroundExperiences of stressful life events during transition may have a negative impact on quality of life (QoL) in trans persons. Little attention has been paid to this population in Switzerland, resulting in sparse data on their QoL and associated ...
