Travel discomfort-time tradeoffs in Paris subway: an empirical analysis using interval regression models

We analyze individual travel discomfort-time tradeoffs in Paris subway using stated choice experiments. The survey design allows to set up in a willingness-to-pay space to estimate the distributions of elasticities of values of travel time savings to crowd ...

Stream temperature prediction in ungauged basins: review of recent approaches and description of a new physics-derived statistical model

Michael Lehning, Marc Parlange, Bettina Schaefli, Aurélien Gallice

The development of stream temperature regression models at regional scales has regained some popularity over the past years. These models are used to predict stream temperature in ungauged catchments to assess the impact of human activities or climate chan ...

Regression Analysis of Building Energy Demand

This project attempts to tackle the problem of analysing the heat demand of build- ings at a large (district or city) scale. Specifically, building data from Geneva is used as a case study while building an environment with suitable tools for a continued a ...

A New Analytical Model for the Prediction of Stream Temperature in Ungauged Basins

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Bettina Schaefli, Aurélien Gallice

Stream temperature is a hydrological factor which affects the habitat suitability of many aquatic species, and is therefore of great concern in the actual context of climate change. Its prediction in ungauged basins is usually based on statistical approach ...

Beyond Allan Variance - GMWM Framework For Sensor Calibration

Jan Skaloud, Stéphane Guerrier

Proposed 50 years ago for studying stability of oscillators, Allan Variance (AV) was accepted by IEEE as a standard for characterizing behavior of sensors. However, the inverse mapping, i.e. the estimation of noise-parameters from Allan Variance is less st ...

A Geometric View on Constrained M-Estimators

Volkan Cevher, Yen-Huan Li, Ya-Ping Hsieh, Nissim Zerbib

We study the estimation error of constrained M-estimators, and derive explicit upper bounds on the expected estimation error determined by the Gaussian width of the constraint set. Both of the cases where the true parameter is on the boundary of the constr ...

Flying Objects Detection from a Single Moving Camera

Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Artem Rozantsev

We propose an approach to detect flying objects such as UAVs and aircrafts when they occupy a small portion of the field of view, possibly moving against complex backgrounds, and are filmed by a camera that itself moves. Solving such a difficult problem re ...

Experiments on magneto-hydrodynamics instabilities with ECH/ECCD in FTU using a minimal real-time control system

Cristian Galperti

Experiments on real time control of magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities using injection of electron cyclotron waves (ECW) are being performed with a control system based on only three real time key items: an equilibrium estimator based on a statistica ...

Positive association of walking with the use of public transport in Switzerland

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Derek Pierre Christie, Jean Simos

Promoting physical activity and active transport strategies are among the “best buys” for tackling the risk factors of noncommunicable diseases (WHO Global status report on noncommunicable diseases, 2010). Operationalising such insights requires policies f ...
