A new coefficient of correlation

czbiohub/pyxi 23 Sep 2019

Is it possible to define a coefficient of correlation which is (a) as simple as the classical coefficients like Pearson's correlation or Spearman's correlation, and yet (b) consistently estimates some simple and interpretable measure of the degree of dependence between the variables, which is 0 if and only if the variables are independent and 1 if and only if one is a measurable function of the other, and (c) has a simple asymptotic theory under the hypothesis of independence, like the classical coefficients?

Initial Guesses for Sequences of Linear Systems in a GPU-Accelerated Incompressible Flow Solver

paranumal/libparanumal 23 Sep 2020

We consider several methods for generating initial guesses when iteratively solving sequences of linear systems, showing that they can be implemented efficiently in GPU-accelerated PDE solvers, specifically solvers for incompressible flow.

The Synchrosqueezing algorithm for time-varying spectral analysis: robustness properties and new paleoclimate applications

overlordgolddragon/ssqueezepy 29 Apr 2011

We analyze the stability properties of the Synchrosqueezing transform, a time-frequency signal analysis method that can identify and extract oscillatory components with time-varying frequency and amplitude.

Computing in Operations Research using Julia

jump-dev/jump.jl 5 Dec 2013

The state of numerical computing is currently characterized by a divide between highly efficient yet typically cumbersome low-level languages such as C, C++, and Fortran and highly expressive yet typically slow high-level languages such as Python and MATLAB.

Householder QR Factorization with Randomization for Column Pivoting (HQRRP). FLAME Working Note #78

rileyjmurray/hqrrp 8 Dec 2015

A fundamental problem when adding column pivoting to the Householder QR factorization is that only about half of the computation can be cast in terms of high performing matrix-matrix multiplications, which greatly limits the benefits that can be derived from so-called blocking of algorithms.
