Comparison of Machine Learning-Based Methods for Narrowband Blind Adaptive Beamforming by Shonkwiler, Lara

“…Traditional blind source separation methods such as CMA, SOBI, JADE, and FastICA tend to be highly effective at beamforming datasets with moderate to large sample supports, but they do not perform well when they only have access to a limited number of data samples. They also bear the disadvantage that the appropriate algorithm must be selected based on the properties of the expected signal. …”

Soft law, hard stakes? State commitment to non-binding international instruments and the case of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples by Villeneuve, L

“…In this thesis, incorporating insights from public international law into rationalist IR approaches, I argue that soft law instruments can have important effects over time and bring substantial costs for states to bear. This is particularly the case for soft law instruments ‘hardening’ through domestic law, treaties or customary international law, increasing the sovereignty and implementation costs attached to commitment. …”
