Dual Approaches to Express the Generalized Degree of Polarimetric Purity

The degree of polarimetric purity is an invariant dimensionless quantity that characterizes the closeness of a polarization state of a wave to a pure state and is related to the Von Neumann entropy. The polarimetric purity of a plane wave characterized by the second-order statistics (i.e., the covariance matrix) is uniquely described by the degree of polarization. However, the 2D formalism is only applicable when the wave propagation direction is fixed. This assumption is typical in optical and radar polarimetric measurements. Therefore, one must consider all the components to describe the general state of wave polarization. Starting from Samson and Barakat, several different concepts have been proposed in the literature to describe the 3D degree of polarization. We discuss two new ways of achieving such description: by the Coefficient of Variation and by a Direct Sum Decomposition.

A note on complex-hyperbolic Kleinian groups

Let $Γ$ be a discrete group of isometries acting on the complex hyperbolic $n$-space $\mathbb{H}^n_\mathbb{C}$. In this note, we prove that if $Γ$ is convex-cocompact, torsion-free, and the critical exponent $δ(Γ)$ is strictly lesser than $2$, then the complex manifold $\mathbb{H}^n_\mathbb{C}/Γ$ is Stein. We also discuss several related conjectures.

Ping-pong in Hadamard manifolds

In this paper, we prove a quantitative version of the Tits alternative for negatively pinched manifolds $X$. Precisely, we prove that a nonelementary discrete isometry subgroup of $\mathrm{Isom}(X)$ generated by two non-elliptic isometries $g$, $f$ contains a free subgroup of rank $2$ generated by isometries $f^N , h$ of uniformly bounded word length. Furthermore, we show that this free subgroup is convex-cocompact when $f$ is hyperbolic.

Spherical metrics with conical singularities on 2-spheres

Suppose that $θ_1,θ_2,\dots,θ_n$ are positive numbers and $n\ge 3$. Does there exist a sphere with a spherical metric with $n$ conical singularities of angles $2πθ_1,2πθ_2,\dots,2πθ_n$? A sufficient condition was obtained by Gabriele Mondello and Dmitri Panov (arXiv:1505.01994). We show that it is also necessary when we assume that $θ_1,θ_2,\dots,θ_n \not\in \mathbb{N}$.

SolarisNet: A Deep Regression Network for Solar Radiation Prediction

Effective utilization of photovoltaic (PV) plants requires weather variability robust global solar radiation (GSR) forecasting models. Random weather turbulence phenomena coupled with assumptions of clear sky model as suggested by Hottel pose significant challenges to parametric & non-parametric models in GSR conversion rate estimation. Also, a decent GSR estimate requires costly high-tech radiometer and expert dependent instrument handling and measurements, which are subjective. As such, a computer aided monitoring (CAM) system to evaluate PV plant operation feasibility by employing smart grid past data analytics and deep learning is developed. Our algorithm, SolarisNet is a 6-layer deep neural network trained on data collected at two weather stations located near Kalyani metrological site, West Bengal, India. The daily GSR prediction performance using SolarisNet outperforms the existing state of art and its efficacy in inferring past GSR data insights to comprehend daily and seasonal GSR variability along with its competence for short term forecasting is discussed.

Diagnosing Heterogeneous Dynamics for CT Scan Images of Human Brain in Wavelet and MFDFA domain

CT scan images of human brain of a particular patient in different cross sections are taken, on which wavelet transform and multi-fractal analysis are applied. The vertical and horizontal unfolding of images are done before analyzing these images. A systematic investigation of de-noised CT scan images of human brain in different cross-sections are carried out through wavelet normalized energy and wavelet semi-log plots, which clearly points out the mismatch between results of vertical and horizontal unfolding. The mismatch of results confirms the heterogeneity in spatial domain. Using the multi-fractal de-trended fluctuation analysis (MFDFA), the mismatch between the values of Hurst exponent and width of singularity spectrum by vertical and horizontal unfolding confirms the same.
