Si vous utilisez l'application Markpage pour créer un mini-site web, j'ai changé l'affichage par défaut sur mobile (inspiré par l'application ePoc de l'INRIA).
Au lieu de scroller en bas pour voir les sous-sections suivantes, l'affichage se fait pas Š pas et la navigation se fait par un mouvement de swipe ou des boutons de navigation.
Si vous voulez désactiver ce mode d'affichage, il suffit de mettre `swipe: false` dans l'en-tête yaml.

Improved Evolutionary Algorithms for Submodular Maximization with Cost Constraints
We present an evolutionary algorithm evo-SMC for the problem of Submodular Maximization under Cost constraints (SMC). Our algorithm achieves $1/2$-approximation with a high probability $1-1/n$ within $\mathcal{O}(n^2K_β)$ iterations, where $K_β$ denotes the maximum size of a feasible solution set with cost constraint $β$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the best approximation guarantee offered by evolutionary algorithms for this problem. We further refine evo-SMC, and develop {\sc st-e…

Probing More Deeply in an All-Sky Search for Continuous Gravitational Waves in the LIGO O3 Data Set
We report results from an all-sky search of the LIGO data from the third LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA run (O3) for continuous gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars in the frequency band [30, 150] Hz and spindown range of $[-1 \times 10^{-8}, +1 \times 10^{-9}]$ Hz/s. This search builds upon a previous analysis of the first half of the O3 data using the same PowerFlux pipeline. We search more deeply here by using the full O3 data and by using loose coherence in the initial stage with fully coheren…

As President Joe Biden pushes House Republicans to pass needed aid, he wants voters to understand that nearly two-thirds — or nearly $40 billion — of the money for Ukraine would actually go to U.S. factories spread out across the country including plants in Lima, Ohio and Scranton, Pennsylvania as well as Mesquite Texas

Ukraine aid will be spent on American manufacturing, Biden says
As President Joe Biden pushes House Republicans to pass needed aid for Ukraine, he wants voters to understand that nearly two-thirds would actually be going to U.S. factories, like a munitions plant set to open this summer in a gleaming new industrial park in suburban Dallas. Administration officials combed through the foreign aid in the $95 billion bipartisan supplemental funding bill passed by the Senate. Of the $61 billion for Ukraine, nearly $40 billion would go to U.S. factories that make …

Oops, put a known letter back where it didn't belong, don't really think I would have gotten it in 2 anyway, but that blew any chance, although it did give it to me in 3.
OK, I'm astonished my 1st guess got it down to 2. That says that if I had spent more time I had a damn good chance at a 2 for this wordle. Oh well, c'est la vie!

Who Said What? An Automated Approach to Analyzing Speech in Preschool Classrooms
Young children spend substantial portions of their waking hours in noisy preschool classrooms. In these environments, children's vocal interactions with teachers are critical contributors to their language outcomes, but manually transcribing these interactions is prohibitive. Using audio from child- and teacher-worn recorders, we propose an automated framework that uses open source software both to classify speakers (ALICE) and to transcribe their utterances (Whisper). We compare results from o…

Parameterized Complexity of Submodular Minimization under Uncertainty
This paper studies the computational complexity of a robust variant of a two-stage submodular minimization problem that we call Robust Submodular Minimizer. In this problem, we are given $k$ submodular functions $f_1,\dots,f_k$ over a set family $2^V$, which represent $k$ possible scenarios in the future when we will need to find an optimal solution for one of these scenarios, i.e., a minimizer for one of the functions. The present task is to find a set $X \subseteq V$ that is close to some opt…
