On the origins of the worldwide surge in patenting: An industry perspective on the R&D-patent relationship

This article decomposes the R&D-patent relationship at the industry level to shed light on the sources of the worldwide surge in patent applications. The empirical analysis is based on a unique data set that includes five patent indicators computed for 18 ...

Source Localization and Tracking in Non-Convex Rooms

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Orhan Öçal

We consider the estimation of the acoustic source position in a known room from recordings by a microphone array. We propose an algorithm that does not require the room to be convex, nor a line-of-sight path between the microphone array and the source to b ...

Regulation of the Corrinoid Metabolism in Desulfitobacteria

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Emmanuelle Rohrbach, Aurélie Duret

The corrinoid cofactor is essential to organohalide respiration (OHR) as key element in virtually all reductive dehalogenases. Desulfitobacteria, and more particularly D. hafniense, represent a group of versatile OHR bacteria able to produce corrinoids de ...

Functional and Structural Responses of Hyporheic Biofilms to Varying Sources of Dissolved Organic Matter

Tom Ian Battin

Headwater streams are tightly connected with the terrestrial milieu from where they receive deliveries of organic matter often through the hyporheic zone, the transition between groundwater and streamwater. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) from terrestrial s ...

Linear Function Computation in Networks: Duality and Constant Gap Results

Michael Christoph Gastpar

In linear function computation, multiple source nodes communicate across a relay network to a single destination whose goal is to recover linear functions of the original source data. When the relay network is a linear deterministic network, a duality rela ...

A social network analysis of Rousseau’s autobiography “Les Confessions”

Frédéric Kaplan, Yannick Rochat, Cyril Antoine Michel Bornet

We propose an analysis of the social network composed of the characters appearing in Jean-Jacques Rousseau's autobiographic Les Confessions, with existence of edges based on co-occurrences. This work consists of twelve volumes, that span over fifty years o ...

Opportunistic human activity and context recognition

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano, Daniel Roggen

Although the Internet of Things allows seamless access to billions of sensors readily deployed throughout the world, current context- and activity-recognition approaches restrict ambient intelligence to domains where dedicated sensors are deployed. The big ...

Distributed spatiotemporal suppression for environmental data collection in real-world sensor networks

Alcherio Martinoli, Alexander Bahr, William Christopher Evans

Environmental processes are often severely over-sampled. As sensor networks become more ubiquitous for this purpose, increasing network longevity becomes ever more important. Radio transceivers in particular are a great source of energy consumption, and ma ...

Multisource Clustering of Remote Sensing Images With Entropy-Based Dempster-Shafer Fusion

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Devis Tuia, Frank Grégoire Jean de Morsier, Maurice Borgeaud, Tsirihasina Sitraka Ranoeliarivao

In this paper, we propose a strategy for fusing clustering maps obtained with different remote sensing sources. Dempster- Shafer (DS) Theory is a powerful fusion method that allows to combine classifications from different sources and handles ignorance, im ...
