    The aim of this review-style paper is to provide a concise, self-contained and unified presentation of the construction and main properties of Gaussian multiplicative chaos (GMC) measures for log-correlated fields in 2D in the subcritical regime. By considering the case of the 2D Gaussian free field, we review convergence, uniqueness and characterisations of the measures; revisit Kahane's convexity inequalities and existence and scaling of moments; discuss the measurability of the underlying field with respect to the GMC measure and present a KPZ relation for scaling exponents.Comment: 28p, less typos in the 3rd, published version, still no figures, I remain thankful for comment

    Social capital has an important role in achieving the goals of farmer groups. Each member of a farmer group has different social capital, even though the farmer group is in the same area. This research aims to analyze the comparison of social capital of members of the Red Lotus Farmers Group and the White Lotus Farmers Group in Cinandang Village, Dawarblandong District, Mojokerto Regency and to analyze the relationship between social capital and farmer group class. The research method uses quantitative methods. Sampling was carried out using a stratified random sampling approach. The data used is data from interviews with 40 members of the Red Lotus Farmers Group and 27 members of the White Lotus Farmers Group. The analysis technique used is the Mann-Whitney test and the software used is IBM SPSS Statistics 22. Based on the research results, there are differences in the social capital (trust, social norms, networks and participation) of members of the Red Lotus Farmers Group and the White Lotus Farmers Group. The differences between members of the Red Lotus Farmers Group and the White Lotus Group are due to different indicator scores of trust, social norms, networks and participation of farmer group members. The social capital correlation test shows that there is a relationship between social capital and farmer group class

    First passage sets of the 2D continuum Gaussian free field

    We introduce the first passage set (FPS) of constant level −a-a of the two-dimensional continuum Gaussian free field (GFF) on finitely connected domains. Informally, it is the set of points in the domain that can be connected to the boundary by a path on which the GFF does not go below −a-a. It is, thus, the two-dimensional analogue of the first hitting time of −a-a by a one-dimensional Brownian motion. We provide an axiomatic characterization of the FPS, a continuum construction using level lines, and study its properties: it is a fractal set of zero Lebesgue measure and Minkowski dimension 2 that is coupled with the GFF Ω\Phi as a local set AA so that Ω+a\Phi+a restricted to AA is a positive measure. One of the highlights of this paper is identifying this measure as a Minkowski content measure in the non-integer gauge r↩∣log⁡(r)∣1/2r2r \mapsto \vert\log(r)\vert^{1/2}r^{2}, by using Gaussian multiplicative chaos theory.Comment: The first version also contained arXiv:1805.09204, which is now a paper on its own; the third version is an all-around improved version ; 42 pages; 8 figures

    Sample-level CNN Architectures for Music Auto-tagging Using Raw Waveforms

    Full text link
    Recent work has shown that the end-to-end approach using convolutional neural network (CNN) is effective in various types of machine learning tasks. For audio signals, the approach takes raw waveforms as input using an 1-D convolution layer. In this paper, we improve the 1-D CNN architecture for music auto-tagging by adopting building blocks from state-of-the-art image classification models, ResNets and SENets, and adding multi-level feature aggregation to it. We compare different combinations of the modules in building CNN architectures. The results show that they achieve significant improvements over previous state-of-the-art models on the MagnaTagATune dataset and comparable results on Million Song Dataset. Furthermore, we analyze and visualize our model to show how the 1-D CNN operates.Comment: Accepted for publication at ICASSP 201

    Intra-Industry Trade in the Baltic Sea Region

    The purpose of this paper is to analyse economic integration in the Baltic Sea Region as it has emerged from mid-1990s. More importantly, we seek to assess the quality of integration as conferred by the development of intra-industry trade between the two groups of countries in the Baltic Sea region: Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Germany at the Western coast, and Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland at the Eastern coast of the Baltic Sea. The analysis of the change in the quality of the traded goods reveals that the economic intergration in the Baltic Sea Region has so far not led to a vast increase of the competitiveness of industry at the relatively less developed Eastern coast of the Baltic Sea. The equalisation of market prices has predominantly taken place in the trade of raw materials, whereas the Eastern countries continue to trade with deficit in the majority of manufactured goods where the equalisation of unit prices has actually taken place. The above seems to support the results of our previous research, in which we have concluded that the economies of the Baltic States and Poland continue to act as lower value-added parts of the cross-border clusters in the Baltic Sea Region. Consequently, if catching up in living standards with the northern and western neighbours is envisioned, much more systematic investment into education and technology is needed in the Baltic States and Poland.Baltic Sea region, intra-industry trade integration
