Implementing peridynamics within a molecular dynamics code
Peridynamics (PD) is a continuum theory that employs a nonlocal model to describe material properties. In this context, nonlocal means that continuum points separated by a finite ...

Independent factor discriminant analysis
In the general classification context the recourse to the so-called Bayes decision rule requires to estimate the class conditional probability density functions. In this paper we p...

Variational Bayesian functional PCA
A Bayesian approach to analyze the modes of variation in a set of curves is suggested. It is based on a generative model thus allowing for noisy and sparse observations of curves....

Nonparametric Regression as an Example of Model Choice
Nonparametric regression can be considered as a problem of model choice. In this paper we present the results of a simulation study in which several nonparametric regression techn...

Cross-Entropy method: convergence issues for extended implementation
The cross-entropy method (CE) developed by R. Rubinstein is an elegant practical principle for simulating rare events. The method approximates the probability of the rare event by...
