We obtain local weak limits in probability for Collapsed Branching Processes (CBP), which are directed random networks obtained by collapsing random-sized families of individuals in a general continuous-time branching process. The local…
Sufferers of heart failure disease have a life expectancy of one year and heart transplantation is usually the only guarantee of survival beyond this period. The number of donor hearts available currently is less than 3,000 per annum…
In the combinatorial semi-bandit (CSB) problem, a player selects an action from a combinatorial action set and observes feedback from the base arms included in the action. While CSB is widely applicable to combinatorial optimization…
Laser-based surgical ablation relies heavily on surgeon involvement, restricting precision to the limits of human error. The interaction between laser and tissue is governed by various laser parameters that control the laser irradiance on…
Compliance is a strong requirement for human-robot interactions. Soft-robots provide an opportunity to cover the lack of compliance in conventional actuation mechanisms, however, the control of them is very challenging given their intrinsic…
