Microsimulation of urban transportation and land use evolution require base year, individual characteristics and disaggregate locations of the households and persons living in the study area. On the other hand, mainly due to privacy reasons, at best the ce ...
Context and activity recognition in complex scenarios is prone to data loss due to disconnections, sensor failure, transmission problems, etc. This generally implies significant changes in the recognition performance. In the case of classifier fusion fault ...
A method for the stochastic simulation of (rain)drop size distributions (DSDs) in space and time using geostatistics is presented. At each pixel, the raindrop size distribution is described by a Gamma distribution with two or three stochastic parameters. T ...
The large variability of the drop size distribution (DSD) in space and time must be taken into account to improve remote sensing of precipitation. The ability to simulate a large number of 2D fields of DSD sharing the same statistical properties provides a ...
This paper explores a connection between randomness extraction and channel (source) coding problems. It is explained how efficient extractors can be used to define efficient coding schemes and reciprocally, a new deterministic extractor based on a polar co ...

In this work we study the problem of key agreement over a public noiseless channel when Alice, Bob and Charlie observe discrete memoryless sources of an unknown distribution. Alice and Bob want to agree on a key K-AB that is protected from Charlie. At the ...

It is now common knowledge that flow uniformity within repeat-elements - as well as among them in stack configuration - is of major importance for the performance and reliability of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). At first, a design optimization of the con ...
This paper addresses the problem of state estimation in the case where the prior distribution of the states is not perfectly known but instead is parameterized by some unknown parameter. Thus in order to support the state estimator with prior information o ...
We report on maximum entropy method study of the experimental atomic and ionic charges of LiBD4 in its low-temperature orthorhombic phase. Synchrotron radiation x-ray powder diffraction data, neutron powder diffraction data, and density functional calculat ...
This paper investigates the use of phoneme class conditional probabilities as features (posterior features) for template-based ASR. Using 75 words and 600 words task-independent and speaker-independent setup on Phonebook database, we investigate the use of ...
