Minima Maxima
… in crafting spaces that, while spartan and minimal, allows for variation and individuality to arise. In the context of an urban intervention, architecture can unite the city and the people by offering space for the city and creating an active community for its occupants. This thesis uses a …

Dislocation structures in materials using grand-canonical minima hopping energy minimization
… is presented known as the Grand-Canonical Minima Hopping (GCMH) method, which provides an efficient and adaptive energy landscape exploration for predicting the lowest energy configuration or defect structures present in a given system. Leading to the details of this new procedure, three …

Revisiting Generalization for Deep Learning: PAC-Bayes, Flat Minima, and Generative Models
… learning. By formalizing the notion of flat minima using PAC-Bayes generalization bounds, we obtain nonvacuous generalization bounds for stochastic classifiers based on SGD solutions. Despite strong empirical performance in many settings, SGD rapidly overfits in others. By combining …

Random search conformational analysis of piperazine and piperadine analogs of GBR12909 : implicit aqueous solvation effects
… energy surface (PES) of GBR12909 analogs. Local minima on the PES's were found by the Random Search algorithm using the Sybyl molecular modeling package from Tripos, Inc., and an implicit solvent model. Two force-field/charge models were employed in the analysis: the Tripos force field with …
