Most often, virtual acoustic rendering employs real-time updated room acoustic simulations to accomplish auralization for a variable listener perspective. As an alternative, we propose and test a technique to interpolate room impulse responses, specifically Ambisonic room impulse responses (ARIRs) available at a grid of spatially distributed receiver perspectives, measured or simulated in a desired acoustic environment. In particular, we extrapolate a triplet of neighboring ARIRs to the variable listener perspective, preceding their linear interpolation. The extrapolation is achieved by decomposing each ARIR into localized sound events and re-assigning their direction, time, and level to what could be observed at the listener perspective, with as much temporal, directional, and perspective context as possible. We propose to undertake this decomposition in two levels: Peaks in the early ARIRs are decomposed into jointly localized sound events, based on time differences of arrival observed in either an ARIR triplet, or all ARIRs observing the direct sound. Sound events that could not be jointly localized are treated as residuals whose less precise localization utilizes direction-of-arrival detection and the estimated time of arrival. For the interpolated rendering, suitable parameter settings are found by evaluating the proposed method in a listening experiment, using both measured and simulated ARIR data sets, under static and time-varying conditions.

We consider the low-rank alternating directions implicit (ADI) iteration for approximately solving large-scale algebraic Sylvester equations. Inside every iteration step of this iterative process a pair of linear systems of equations has to be solved. We investigate the situation when those inner linear systems are solved inexactly by an iterative methods such as, for example, preconditioned Krylov subspace methods. The main contribution of this work are thresholds for the required accuracies regarding the inner linear systems which dictate when the employed inner Krylov subspace methods can be safely terminated. The goal is to save computational effort by solving the inner linear system as inaccurate as possible without endangering the functionality of the low-rank Sylvester-ADI method. Ideally, the inexact ADI method mimics the convergence behaviour of the more expensive exact ADI method, where the linear systems are solved directly. Alongside the theoretical results, also strategies for an actual practical implementation of the stopping criteria are developed. Numerical experiments confirm the effectiveness of the proposed strategies.

We present a demonstration of image classification using an echo-state network (ESN) relying on a single simulated spintronic nanostructure known as the vortex-based spin-torque oscillator (STVO) delayed in time. We employ an ultrafast data-driven simulation framework called the data-driven Thiele equation approach (DD-TEA) to simulate the STVO dynamics. This allows us to avoid the challenges associated with repeated experimental manipulation of such a nanostructured system. We showcase the versatility of our solution by successfully applying it to solve classification challenges with the MNIST, EMNIST-letters and Fashion MNIST datasets. Through our simulations, we determine that within a large ESN the results obtained using the STVO dynamics as an activation function are comparable to the ones obtained with other conventional nonlinear activation functions like the reLU and the sigmoid. While achieving state-of-the-art accuracy levels on the MNIST dataset, our model's performance on EMNIST-letters and Fashion MNIST is lower due to the relative simplicity of the system architecture and the increased complexity of the tasks. We expect that the DD-TEA framework will enable the exploration of deeper architectures, ultimately leading to improved classification accuracy.

This paper considers a crowdsourced delivery (CSD) system that effectively utilizes the existing trips to fulfill parcel delivery as a matching problem between CSD drivers and delivery tasks. This matching problem has two major challenges. First, it is a large-scale combinatorial optimization problem that is hard to solve in a reasonable computational time. Second, the evaluation of the objective function for socially optimal matching contains the utility of drivers for performing the tasks, which is generally unobservable private information. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a hierarchical distribution mechanism of CSD tasks that decomposes the matching problem into the task partition (master problem) and individual task-driver matching within smaller groups of drivers (sub-problems). We incorporate an auction mechanism with truth-telling and efficiency into the sub-problems so that the drivers' perceived utilities are revealed through their bids. Furthermore, we formulate the master problem as a fluid model based on continuously approximated decision variables. By exploiting the random utility framework, we analytically represent the objective function of the problem using continuous variables, without explicitly knowing the drivers' utilities. The numerical experiment shows that the proposed approach solved large-scale matching problems at least 100 times faster than a naive LP solver and approximated the original objective value with errors of less than 1%.

Multistate Markov models are a canonical parametric approach for data modeling of observed or latent stochastic processes supported on a finite state space. Continuous-time Markov processes describe data that are observed irregularly over time, as is often the case in longitudinal medical data, for example. Assuming that a continuous-time Markov process is time-homogeneous, a closed-form likelihood function can be derived from the Kolmogorov forward equations -- a system of differential equations with a well-known matrix-exponential solution. Unfortunately, however, the forward equations do not admit an analytical solution for continuous-time, time-inhomogeneous Markov processes, and so researchers and practitioners often make the simplifying assumption that the process is piecewise time-homogeneous. In this paper, we provide intuitions and illustrations of the potential biases for parameter estimation that may ensue in the more realistic scenario that the piecewise-homogeneous assumption is violated, and we advocate for a solution for likelihood computation in a truly time-inhomogeneous fashion. Particular focus is afforded to the context of multistate Markov models that allow for state label misclassifications, which applies more broadly to hidden Markov models (HMMs), and Bayesian computations bypass the necessity for computationally demanding numerical gradient approximations for obtaining maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs). Supplemental materials are available online.

Many asymptotically minimax procedures for function estimation often rely on somewhat arbitrary and restrictive assumptions such as isotropy or spatial homogeneity. This work enhances the theoretical understanding of Bayesian additive regression trees under substantially relaxed smoothness assumptions. We provide a comprehensive study of asymptotic optimality and posterior contraction of Bayesian forests when the regression function has anisotropic smoothness that possibly varies over the function domain. The regression function can also be possibly discontinuous. We introduce a new class of sparse {\em piecewise heterogeneous anisotropic} H\"{o}lder functions and derive their minimax lower bound of estimation in high-dimensional scenarios under the $L_2$-loss. We then find that the Bayesian tree priors, coupled with a Dirichlet subset selection prior for sparse estimation in high-dimensional scenarios, adapt to unknown heterogeneous smoothness, discontinuity, and sparsity. These results show that Bayesian forests are uniquely suited for more general estimation problems that would render other default machine learning tools, such as Gaussian processes, suboptimal. Our numerical study shows that Bayesian forests often outperform other competitors such as random forests and deep neural networks, which are believed to work well for discontinuous or complicated smooth functions. Beyond nonparametric regression, we also examined posterior contraction of Bayesian forests for density estimation and binary classification using the technique developed in this study.

Multi-way data extend two-way matrices into higher-dimensional tensors, often explored through dimensional reduction techniques. In this paper, we study the Parallel Factor Analysis (PARAFAC) model for handling multi-way data, representing it more compactly through a concise set of loading matrices and scores. We assume that the data may be incomplete and could contain both rowwise and cellwise outliers, signifying cases that deviate from the majority and outlying cells dispersed throughout the data array. To address these challenges, we present a novel algorithm designed to robustly estimate both loadings and scores. Additionally, we introduce an enhanced outlier map to distinguish various patterns of outlying behavior. Through simulations and the analysis of fluorescence Excitation-Emission Matrix (EEM) data, we demonstrate the robustness of our approach. Our results underscore the effectiveness of diagnostic tools in identifying and interpreting unusual patterns within the data.

Simulation-based digital twins must provide accurate, robust and reliable digital representations of their physical counterparts. Quantifying the uncertainty in their predictions plays, therefore, a key role in making better-informed decisions that impact the actual system. The update of the simulation model based on data must be then carefully implemented. When applied to complex standing structures such as bridges, discrepancies between the computational model and the real system appear as model bias, which hinders the trustworthiness of the digital twin and increases its uncertainty. Classical Bayesian updating approaches aiming to infer the model parameters often fail at compensating for such model bias, leading to overconfident and unreliable predictions. In this paper, two alternative model bias identification approaches are evaluated in the context of their applicability to digital twins of bridges. A modularized version of Kennedy and O'Hagan's approach and another one based on Orthogonal Gaussian Processes are compared with the classical Bayesian inference framework in a set of representative benchmarks. Additionally, two novel extensions are proposed for such models: the inclusion of noise-aware kernels and the introduction of additional variables not present in the computational model through the bias term. The integration of such approaches in the digital twin corrects the predictions, quantifies their uncertainty, estimates noise from unknown physical sources of error and provides further insight into the system by including additional pre-existing information without modifying the computational model.

In the field of medical imaging, the scarcity of large-scale datasets due to privacy restrictions stands as a significant barrier to develop large models for medical. To address this issue, we introduce SynFundus-1M, a high-quality synthetic dataset with over 1 million retinal fundus images and extensive disease and pathologies annotations, which is generated by a Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model. The SynFundus-Generator and SynFundus-1M achieve superior Frechet Inception Distance (FID) scores compared to existing methods on main-stream public real datasets. Furthermore, the ophthalmologists evaluation validate the difficulty in discerning these synthetic images from real ones, confirming the SynFundus-1M's authenticity. Through extensive experiments, we demonstrate that both CNN and ViT can benifit from SynFundus-1M by pretraining or training directly. Compared to datasets like ImageNet or EyePACS, models train on SynFundus-1M not only achieve better performance but also faster convergence on various downstream tasks.

Active feedback control in magnetic confinement fusion devices is desirable to mitigate plasma instabilities and enable robust operation. Optical high-speed cameras provide a powerful, non-invasive diagnostic and can be suitable for these applications. In this study, we process fast camera data, at rates exceeding 100kfps, on $\textit{in situ}$ Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) hardware to track magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) mode evolution and generate control signals in real-time. Our system utilizes a convolutional neural network (CNN) model which predicts the $n$=1 MHD mode amplitude and phase using camera images with better accuracy than other tested non-deep-learning-based methods. By implementing this model directly within the standard FPGA readout hardware of the high-speed camera diagnostic, our mode tracking system achieves a total trigger-to-output latency of 17.6$\mu$s and a throughput of up to 120kfps. This study at the High Beta Tokamak-Extended Pulse (HBT-EP) experiment demonstrates an FPGA-based high-speed camera data acquisition and processing system, enabling application in real-time machine-learning-based tokamak diagnostic and control as well as potential applications in other scientific domains.
