Entre-temps. Construction métamorphe en dialogue avec le climat

Julien Heil

Cette recherche vise à établir un système qui se concentre sur la médiation entre le corps et la ville sous le prisme du temps. Elle se métamorphose au travers d’une série d’interventions qui cherchent à dialoguer avec un lieu pour activer une potentialité ...

The Domestic Turn: Politics of Education from New College to The Palazzo Della Sapienza

Marson Korbi

Student accommodation became a problem only a century after the foundation of the first universities in Europe in the 12th century. At the very beginning students had to provide their own lodgings autonomously. In many university cities the situation prove ...

Pretraining boosts out-of-domain robustness for pose estimation

Alexander Mathis, Mackenzie Mathis, Steffen Schneider, Matthias Bethge, Thomas Ray Biasi, Mert Yüksekgönül

Neural networks are highly effective tools for pose estimation. However, as in other computer vision tasks, robustness to out-of-domain data remains a challenge, especially for small training sets that are common for real-world applications. Here, we probe ...

Lightweight Cross-Lingual Sentence Representation Learning

Martin Jaggi, Prakhar Gupta, Zhuoyuan Mao

Large-scale models for learning fixed-dimensional cross-lingual sentence representations like LASER (Artetxe and Schwenk, 2019b) lead to significant improvement in performance on downstream tasks. However, further increases and modifications based on such ...

‘The Towers of Terror’: A Critical Analysis of Ernő Goldfinger’s Balfron and Trellick Towers

Nicola Braghieri

When J. G. Ballard published his masterpiece High-Rise in 1975, many readers in London automatically identified the apartment building that is the protagonist of the dystopian novel as the infamous Trellick Tower at Kensal Town, certainly one of the most c ...

Pretraining boosts out-of-domain robustness for pose estimation

Alexander Mathis, Mackenzie Mathis, Matthias Bethge, Mert Yüksekgönül

Deep neural networks are highly effective tools for human and animal pose estimation. However, robustness to out-of-domain data remains a challenge. Here, we probe the transfer and generalization ability for pose estimation with two architecture classes (M ...

Pigeonnier urbain

En milieu urbain, le pigeon est un animal détestable pour ceux qui mésestiment son utilité. Sa présence, trop souvent jugée de parasitaire, est en réalité le fruit d’un équilibre subtil et sensible qui défend sa légitimité. Le pigeonnier urbain offre une r ...

Configuration logics: Modeling architecture styles

Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze, Anastasia Mavridou, Eduard Baranov

We study a framework for the specification of architecture styles as families of architectures involving a common set of types of components and coordination mechanisms. The framework combines two logics: 1) interaction logics for the specification of arch ...
