We address two fundamental issues in the physics of the quantum Hall effect: a unified description of scaling behavior of conductances in the integral and fractional regimes, and a quasi-particle formulation of the chiral Luttinger Liquids that describe the dynamics of edge excitations in the fractional regime.

We present new insights on the relations between a recently introduced probabilistic formulation of the content-based retrieval problem and standard solutions. New experimental results are presented, providing evidence that probabilistic retrieval has superior performance. Finally, a unified representation for texture and color is introduced.

Noting that quantum measurements are in general incomplete, we develop, starting from a recent entropic formulation of uncertainty, a mazimum uncertainty principle to define the statistical mechanics of microscopic systems. The resulting ensemble entropy coincides with the expression of von Neumann, thus providing a unified, quantum basis for statistical physics of all systems. Examples involvi...

We address the distribution regression problem (DRP): regressing on the (possibly infinite dimensional) domain of probability measures, in the two-stage sampled setup when only samples from the distributions are observable. The DRP formulation offers a unified framework for several important tasks in statistics and machine learning including for example, drug activity prediction, aerosol optica...

We prove sharp convergence rates for a class of domain embedding methods for elliptic boundary value problems. The theory is established for Dirichlet, Neumann, and Robin boundary conditions, and is unified in a new formulation for mixed boundary condition. On the continuous level, the methods for these boundary value problems perform equally well.

The classical problem of self-energy divergence was studied in the framework of Lagrangian formulation of Relativistic Mechanics. The conclusion was made that a revision of mass-energy concept is needed for the development of singularity-free gravitational and electromagnetic field theory. Perspectives of the development of unified field theory are

Object recognition under partial occlusion is an important problem that arises in many remote sensing and surveillance applications. Occlusion is often caused by objects with significant spatial extent, thereby resulting in spatial correlation as to which parts of objects are visible. In this paper, we develop a unified formulation for occluded object recognition using spatially correlated occl...

Las organizaciones contemporáneas enfrentan mercados cada vez más turbulentos y mutables del punto de vista tecnológico, económico y social, necesitando dar respuestas adaptadas para que se mantengan productivas y para sobrevivir a las presiones que esos mercados ahora les ejercen. Los cambios y presiones que emergen del entorno en que las organizaciones se encuentran son cada vez más frecuente...

In this paper we propose an adaptation of the static eikonal equation over weighted graphs of arbitrary structure using a framework of discrete operators. Based on this formulation, we provide explicit solutions for the L1,L2 and L∞ norms. Efficient algorithms to compute the explicit solution of the eikonal equation on graphs are also described. We then present several applications of our metho...
