A new approach, "$\mathfrak{B}\text{-Function}$ Method", to the analysis of the reconstruction methods, phase space, and exact solutions of the alternative theories of gravity is suggested. The $\mathfrak{B}\text{-function}$ method which is…
Mixed-effects models are widely used to model data with hierarchical grouping structures and high-cardinality categorical predictor variables. However, for high-dimensional crossed random effects, current standard computations relying on…
We consider the convergence of iterative solvers for problems of nonlinear magnetostatics. Using the equivalence to an underlying minimization problem, we can establish global linear convergence of a large class of methods, including the…
In recent years, methods for Bayesian inference have been widely used in many different problems in physics where detection and characterization are necessary. Data analysis in gravitational-wave astronomy is a prime example of such a case.…
Bayesian statistics is a cornerstone of imaging sciences, underpinning many and varied approaches from Markov random fields to score-based denoising diffusion models. In addition to powerful image estimation methods, the Bayesian paradigm…
The Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) method is commonly used for inverting models used to describe geothermal, groundwater, or oil and gas reservoirs. In previous studies LM parameter updates have been made tractable for highly parameterized…
We present a multihistogram reweighting technique for nonequilibrium Markov Chains with discrete energies. The method generalizes the single histogram method of Yin et al. [Phys. Rev. E72, 036122 (2005)], making it possible to calculate the…
We develop the general form of the variational multiscale method in a discontinuous Galerkin framework. Our method is based on the decomposition of the true solution into discontinuous coarse-scale and discontinuous fine-scale parts. The…
The theory of ``Markov-up'' processes is being developed. This is a new class of stochastic processes with ``partial'' markovian features; it could also be called ``one-sided Markov''. Such a behavior may be found in the real world and in…
This is an expository paper on the helicoidal method, a tool designed for proving multiple vector-valued inequalities for operators in harmonic analysis, which is based on stopping times and localizations. As it turns out, the local…
The standard approach for integrating the multidimensional Vlasov equation using grid based, conservative schemes is based on a time splitting approach. Here, we show that although the truncation error is of second order, time splitting can…
This paper introduces methodology for performing Bayesian inference sequentially on a sequence of posteriors on spaces of different dimensions. We show how this may be achieved through the use of sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) samplers (Del…
We propose a Bayesian approach to joint source separation and restoration for astrophysical diffuse sources. We constitute a prior statistical model for the source images by using their gradient maps. We assume a t-distribution for the…
We introduce the notion of induced Maslov cycle, which describes and unifies geometrical and topological invariants of many apparently unrelated problems, from Real Algebraic Geometry to sub-Riemannian Geometry.
We apply random matrix theory to study the impact of measurement uncertainty on dynamic mode decomposition. Specifically, when the measurements follow a normal probability density function, we show how the moments of that density propagate…
We study an induced dynamics in the space of energy of single-spin-flip Monte Carlo algorithm. The method gives an efficient reweighting technique. This dynamics is shown to have relaxation times proportional to the specific heat. Thus, it…
Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are often deemed too computationally intensive to be of any practical use for big data applications, and in particular for inference on datasets containing a large number $n$ of individual data points, also…
In performing a Bayesian analysis of astronomical data, two difficult problems often emerge. First, in estimating the parameters of some model for the data, the resulting posterior distribution may be multimodal or exhibit pronounced…
A common strategy for inference in complex models is the relaxation of a simple model into the more complex target model, for example the prior into the posterior in Bayesian inference. Existing approaches that attempt to generate such…
For several decades now, Bayesian inference techniques have been applied to theories of particle physics, cosmology and astrophysics to obtain the probability density functions of their free parameters. In this study, we review and compare…
