Atomic force microscopy (AFM), a member of the scanning probe microscopy (SPM) family, holds a unique position as a nano-characterization instrument in the fields of physics, chemistry, and biology. Its ability to provide atomic resolution and operate in v ...
Wearable systems embodied as patches could offer noninvasive and real-time solutions for monitoring of biomarkers in human sweat as an alternative to blood testing, with applications in personalized and preventive healthcare. Sweat is considered to be a bi ...
In 1902, a contributor to Popular Science affirmed that “The era of the amateur scientist is passing; science must now be advanced by the professional expert.” Throughout the twentieth century, amateurs have been increasingly excluded from the production o ...

We propose a reduced ODE model for the mechanical activation of cardiac myofilaments, which is based on explicit spatial representation of nearest-neighbour interactions. Our model is derived from the cooperative Markov Chain model of Washio et al. (Cell M ...
This paper investigates the potential impact of deep generative models on the work of creative professionals, specifically focusing on fashion design. We argue that current generative modeling tools lack critical features that would make them useful creati ...

With face-recognition (FR) increasingly replacing fingerprint sensors for user-authentication on mobile devices, presentation attacks (PA) have emerged as the single most significant hurdle for manufacturers of FR systems. Current machine-learning based pr ...

Being able to understand how optical forces emerge from the interaction of light with matter is paramount for controlling the motion of nanoparticles as well as powering nanomotors. The purpose of this work is to uncover the physical mechanisms at the orig ...
This thesis consists in an extensive study about the enantioselective Pictet-Spengler reaction (EPSR) and its application to the total synthesis of monoterpene indole alkaloids (MIAs). The general introduction presents the literature background about this ...
Perception of a target strongly deteriorates when flanking elements are presented (crowding). Classically, crowding is explained by pooling mechanisms where target and flanker features are combined, e.g., when neurons in higher visual areas with larger rec ...
In this work, we propose a novel Cycle In Cycle Generative Adversarial Network (C2GAN) for the task of keypoint-guided image generation. The proposed C2GAN is a cross-modal framework exploring a joint exploitation of the keypoint and the image data in an i ...
