Higgsed antisymmetric tensors and topological defects
We find topological defect solutions to the equations of motion of a
generalised Higgs model with antisymmetric tensor fields. These solutions are
direct higher dimensional analogues of the Nielsen-Olesen vortex solution for a
gauge field in four dimensions.Comment: 9 pages, final versio
The Purchase by Railroads of Their Own Obligations
Recent studies from several authors show that it is possible to lower the fuel consumption for heavy trucks by utilizing information about the road topography ahead of the vehicle. The approach in these studies is receding horizon control where horizon length and residual cost are main topics. To approach these topics, fuel equivalents previously introduced based on physical intuition are given a mathematical interpretation in terms of Lagrange multipliers. Measures for the suboptimality, caused by the truncated horizon and the residual cost approximation, are defined and evaluated for different routes and parameters.Original Publication: Erik Hellström, Jan Åslund and Lars Nielsen, Horizon length and fuel equivalents for fuel-optimal look-ahead control, 2010, 6th IFAC Symposium Advances in Automatic Control.

Perspectives on Bayesian Optimization for HCI
In this position paper we discuss optimization in the HCI
domain based on our experiences with Bayesian methods
for modeling and optimization of audio systems, including
challenges related to evaluating, designing, and optimizing
such interfaces. We outline and demonstrate how a
combined Bayesian modeling and optimization approach
provides a flexible framework for integrating various user
and content attributes, while also supporting model-based
optimization of HCI systems. Finally, we discuss current
and future research direction and applications, such as
inferring user needs and optimizing interfaces for
computer assisted teaching
