Development and validation of a low cost blood filtration element separating plasma from undiluted whole blood
Nico de Rooij, Peter Van der Wal
Clinical point of care testing often needs plasma instead of whole blood. As centrifugation is labor intensive and not always accessible, filtration is a more appropriate separation technique. The complexity of whole blood is such that there is still no co ...
American Institute of Physics2012Numerical And Statistical Estimates Of The Representative Volume Element Of Elastoplastic Random Composites
In many applications elastoplastic composites are used in limited amounts, therefore it is important to have estimates of the size of their representative volume element both for modeling and experimental purposes. In this work the tensile response of part ...
Elsevier2012Distributed Particle Swarm Optimization for Limited Time Adaptation in Autonomous Robots
Alcherio Martinoli, Ezequiel Leonardo Di Mario
Evaluative techniques offer a tremendous potential for on-line controller design. However, when the optimization space is large and the performance metric is noisy, the time needed to properly evaluate candidate solutions becomes prohibitively large and, a ...
2012Fast and flexible Kullback-Leibler divergence based acoustic modeling for non-native speech recognition
One of the main challenge in non-native speech recognition is how to handle acoustic variability present in multiaccented non-native speech with limited amount of training data. In this paper, we investigate an approach that addresses this challenge by usi ...
2011Piecewise non-linear constant life diagram formulation for FRP composite materials
Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Behzad Dehghan Manshadi
A new formulation for predicting an asymmetric, piecewise non-linear constant life diagram (CLD) is introduced in this paper. The development of the new model is based on the representation of the fatigue data on the stress ratio (R)-stress amplitude (σa) ...
Elsevier2010Optimal Channel Choice for Collaborative Ad-Hoc Dissemination
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Milan Vojnovic
Collaborative ad-hoc dissemination of information has been proposed as an efficient means to disseminate information among devices in a wireless ad-hoc network. Devices help in forwarding the information channels to the entire network, by disseminating the ...
2010Rateless Codes for AVC Models
The arbitrarily varying channel (AVC) is a channel model whose state is selected maliciously by an adversary. Fixed-blocklength coding assumes a worst-case bound on the adversary's capabilities, which leads to pessimistic results. This paper defines a vari ...
2010Inferring activities from context measurements using Bayesian inference and random utility models
Michel Bierlaire, Gunnar Flötteröd, Ricardo Daniel Hurtubia González
Smartphones collect a wealth of information about their users. This includes GPS tracks and the MAC addresses of devices around the user, and it can go as far as taking visual and acoustic samples of the user's environment. We present a framework to identi ...
2009Register File Reliability Analysis Through Cycle-Accurate Thermal Emulation
David Atienza Alonso, José Luis Ayala Rodrigo, Pablo Garcia del Valle
Continuous transistor scaling due to improvements in CMOS devices and manufacturing technologies is increasing processor power densities and temperatures; thus, creating challenges when trying to maintain manufacturing yield rates and devices which will be ...
IEEE Computer Society2008Analytical design and optimization of ultrasonic vibrational transducers for spinal surgery
Just about every other technical publication you pick up these days makes sweeping statements concerning the pressures on scientists, engineers, and industries as a whole to get to market in less time, with an improved, less expensive product. I am reminde ...
