Voronoi intensity estimators, which are non-parametric estimators for intensity functions of point processes, are both parameter-free and adaptive; the intensity estimate at a given location is given by the reciprocal size of the…

We propose a thermodynamics-based learning strategy for non-equilibrium evolution equations based on Onsager's variational principle, which allows to write such PDEs in terms of two potentials: the free energy and the dissipation potential.…
