Simulations and measurements often result in scalar fields with uncertainty due to errors or output sensitivity estimates. Methods for analyzing topological features of such fields usually are not capable of handling all aspects of the data. They either are not deterministic due to using Monte Carlo approaches, approximate the data with confidence intervals, or miss out on incorporating importa...

Coreference analysis, also known as record linkage or identity uncertainty, is a difficult and important problem in natural language processing, databases, citation matching and many other tasks. This paper introduces several discriminative, conditional-probability models for coreference analysis, all examples of undirected graphical models. Unlike many historical approaches to coreference, the...

Hydrogenation of free-standing silicene, the two-dimensional allotrope of silicon, is investigated in detail using first-principles methods and compared with the adsorption of H atoms on graphene. Similarly to graphene, chemisorption of a single H atom on silicene induces the formation of a semilocalized state around the adatom, a sharp peak in the density of states at the Fermi level which act...

Abstract. We present the results of deep, high velocity resolution (∼1.6 kms−1) Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT) HI 21cm observations of extremely faint (MB > −12.5) dwarf irregular galaxies. We find that all of our sample galaxies show systematic large scale velocity gradients, unlike earlier studies which found chaotic velocity fields for such faint galaxies. For some of the sample gala...
