Phys. B 34, L1 (2001), and Vrinceanu, Onofri...

Title: Semi-supervised learning, Abstract: Semi-supervised learning deals with the problem of how, if possible, to take advantage of a huge amount of not classified data, to perform classification, in situations when, typically, the labelled data are few. Even though this is not always possible (it depends on how usefu...

Title: The Cosmic-Ray Neutron Rover - Mobile Surveys of Field Soil Moisture and the Influence of Roads, Abstract: Measurements of root-zone soil moisture across spatial scales of tens to thousands of meters have been a challenge for many decades. The mobile application of Cosmic-Ray Neutron Sensing (CRNS) is a promisin...

Title: Invariance in Constrained Switching, Abstract: We study discrete time linear constrained switching systems with additive disturbances, in which the switching may be on the system matrices, the disturbance sets, the state constraint sets or a combination of the above. In our general setting, a switching sequence ...

Title: On the choice of the low-dimensional domain for global optimization via random embeddings, Abstract: The challenge of taking many variables into account in optimization problems may be overcome under the hypothesis of low effective dimensionality. Then, the search of solutions can be reduced to the random embedd...

Title: Distributed resource allocation through utility design - Part II: applications to submodular, supermodular and set covering problems, Abstract: A fundamental component of the game theoretic approach to distributed control is the design of local utility functions. In Part I of this work we showed how to systemati...

Title: Quasiparticle band structure engineering in van der Waals heterostructures via dielectric screening, Abstract: The idea of combining different two-dimensional (2D) crystals in van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) has led to a new paradigm for band structure engineering with atomic precision. Due to the weak in...

Title: Special Lagrangian submanifolds and cohomogeneity one actions on the complex projective space, Abstract: We construct examples of cohomogeneity one special Lagrangian submanifolds in the cotangent bundle over the complex projective space, whose Calabi-Yau structure was given by Stenzel. For each example, we desc...
