Non-contact femtosecond laser-based methods for investigating glass mechanics at small scales

Christos Edouardos Athanasiou

With the progress made in miniaturizing systems over the last decades, understanding materialsâ behavior at small scales has become a necessity. In this context, glass behavior has remained largely unknown, partly for technological reasons and partly due ...

Recommender Systems for Healthy Behavior Change

Onur Yürüten

Sedentary lifestyles and bad eating habits influence the onset of many serious health problems. Healthy behavior change is an arduous task, and requires a careful planning. In this thesis, we propose that behavior recommenders can help their users achieve ...

Point-based Path Prediction from Polar Histograms

Alexandre Massoud Alahi

We address the problem of modeling complex target behavior using a stochastic model that integrates object dynamics, statistics gathered from the environment and semantic knowledge about the scene. The method exploits prior knowledge to build point-wise po ...

Just One More: Modeling Binge Watching Behavior

William Trouleau

Easy accessibility can often lead to over-consumption, as seen in food and alcohol habits. On video on-demand (VOD) services, this has recently been referred to as binge watching, where potentially entire seasons of TV shows are consumed in a single viewin ...

Uncovering Latent Behaviors in Ant Colonies

Patrick Thiran, Matthias Grossglauser, Laurent Keller, Mohamed Kafsi, Raphaël Braunschweig

Many biological systems exhibit collective behaviors that strengthen their adaptability to their environment, compared to more solitary species. Describing these behaviors is challenging yet necessary in order to understand these biological systems. We pro ...

Reliability and Validity of Nonverbal Thin Slices in Social Interactions

Laurent Son Nguyen, Denise Frauendorfer

Four studies investigated the reliability and validity of thin slices of nonverbal behavior from social interactions including (a) how well individual slices of a given behavior predict other slices in the same interaction; (b) how well a slice of a given ...

Improving Fatigue Evaluations of Structures Using In-Service Behavior Measurement Data

Ian Smith, James-Alexandre Goulet, Romain Pasquier, Claire Acevedo

Conservative models and code practices are usually employed for fatigue-damage predictions of existing structures. Direct in-service behavior measurements are able to provide more accurate estimations of remaining-fatigue-life predictions. However, these e ...

On the selection of the most appropriate MPC problem formulation for buildings

Colin Neil Jones, Milan Korda

Model Predictive Control (MPC) for buildings has gained a lot of attention recently. It has been shown that MPC can achieve significant energy savings in the range between 15-30 % compared to a conventional control strategy, e.g., to a rule-based controlle ...

A mechatronic platform for behavioral analysis on nonhuman primates

Massimo Vespignani

In this work we present a new mechatronic platform for measuring behavior of nonhuman primates, allowing high reprogrammability and providing several possibilities of interactions. The platform is the result of a multidisciplinary design process, which has ...
