In this project, we will deepen our knowledge about style transfer by implementing one ourselves. First, we will have a look at the architecture and training process of the system. Afterwards, we will explain the loss functions that were used and talk about the datasets and preprocessing steps. We will then evaluate the results our system yields an...
A communication scheme based on interaction-free measurements is proposed here, that is applicable for long-haul communications. It is shown that the scheme allows the transmitter to transfer real information at the receiver end in a finite amount of time, which is independent of their distance of separation. Now, as the distance of separation incr...

Social policy in Mexico has focused on identifying and supporting households in extreme poverty. Yet, the country has a significant number of households just above the poverty line who are not eligible, by definition, for antipoverty programmes and are at risk of falling into poverty in the event of adverse shocks without appropriate social safety nets. This study uses cross-section and longitudinal data to understand better the profile of those ‘vulnerable’ households, their risk exposure, and the extent to which they are covered by public transfers and insurance mechanisms. The analysis shows that until 2010 most social programmes, including the few with productive components, barely covered the vulnerable. The study calls for public policies to pay attention to the vulnerable and find a policy mix on the continuum between targeted interventions and universal insurance schemes to serve this income group.
