Network inference, the task of reconstructing interactions in a complex system from experimental observables, is a central yet extremely challenging problem in systems biology. While much progress has been made in the last two decades,…
Decomposing a deep neural network's learned representations into interpretable features could greatly enhance its safety and reliability. To better understand features, we adopt a geometric perspective, viewing them as a learned coordinate…
This article examines the queueing performance of communication systems that transmit encoded data over unreliable channels. A fading formulation suitable for wireless environments is considered where errors are caused by a discrete channel…
For composite nonsmooth optimization problems, Forward-Backward algorithm achieves model identification (e.g. support identification for the Lasso) after a finite number of iterations, provided the objective function is regular enough.…
Closed queuing networks with finite capacity buffers and skip-over policies are fundamental models in the performance evaluation of computer and communication systems. This technical report presents the details of computational algorithms…
Demand functions for goods are generally cyclical in nature with characteristics such as trend or stochasticity. Most existing demand forecasting techniques in literature are designed to manage and forecast this type of demand functions.…
Jackson queuing networks have a lot of practical applications, mainly in services and technologic devices. For the first case, an example are the healthcare networks and, for the second, the computation and telecommunications networks.…
An overview of the recursive equations based models and their applications in simulation based analysis and optimization of queueing systems is given. These models provide a variety of systems with a convenient and unified representation in…
Functional equations (FE) arise quite naturally in the analysis of stochastic systems of different kinds : queueing and telecommunication networks, random walks, enumeration of planar lattice walks, etc. Frequently, the object is to…
Interacting networks are different in nature to single networks. The study of queuing processes on interacting networks is underdeveloped. It presents new mathematical challenges and is of importance to applications. This area of operations…
Network systems have become a ubiquitous modeling tool in many areas of science where nodes in a graph represent distributed processes and edges between nodes represent a form of dynamic coupling. When a network topology is already known…
We develop randomized modifications of Markov chains and apply these modifications to the routing chains of customers in Jacksonian stochastic networks. The aim of our investigations is to find new rerouting schemes for non standard Jackson…
Linear time-invariant systems are very popular models in system theory and applications. A fundamental problem in system identification that remains rather unaddressed in extant literature is to leverage commonalities amongst related linear…
The problem of high-dimensional and large-scale representation of visual data is addressed from an unsupervised learning perspective. The emphasis is put on discrete representations, where the description length can be measured in bits and…
Networks are models representing relationships between entities. Often these relationships are explicitly given, or we must learn a representation which generalizes and predicts observed behavior in underlying individual data (e.g.…
We give a recursive construction of the stationary distribution of multi-type asymmetric simple exclusion processes on a finite ring or on the infinite line $Z$. The construction can be interpreted in terms of "multi-line diagrams" or…
This paper gives a method for computing distributions associated with patterns in the state sequence of a hidden Markov model, conditional on observing all or part of the observation sequence. Probabilities are computed for very general…
This paper proposes methods for identification of large-scale networked systems with guarantees that the resulting model will be contracting -- a strong form of nonlinear stability -- and/or monotone, i.e. order relations between states are…
Higher-order networks are efficient representations of sequential data. Unlike the classic first-order network approach, they capture indirect dependencies between items composing the input sequences by the use of \textit{memory-nodes}. We…
A many-server queue operating under the earliest deadline first discipline, where the distributions of service time and deadline are generic, is studied at the law of large numbers scale. Fluid model equations, formulated in terms of the…
