Due to the increasing number of pictures captured and stored every day by and on digital devices, lossy image compression has become inevitable to limit the needed storage requirement. As a consequence, these compression methods might introduce some visual ...
The use of point clouds as an imaging modality has been rapidly growing, motivating research on compression methods to enable efficient transmission and storage for many applications. While compression standards relying on conven- tional techniques such as ...
Neuroscientists seek efficient solutions for deciphering the sophisticated unknowns of the brain. Effective development of complicated brain-related tools is the focal point of research in neuroscience and neurotechnology. Thanks to today's technological a ...
The demand for data storage has grown exponentially over the past decades. Current archival solutions have significant shortcomings, such as high resource requirements and a lack of sufficient longevity. In contrast, research on DNA-based storage has been ...
The use of meteorological radars to study snowfall microphysical properties and processes is well established, in particular via a few distinct techniques: the use of radar polarimetry, of multi-frequency radar measurements, and of the radar Doppler spectr ...
Positron emission tomography is a nuclear imaging technique well known for its use in oncology for cancer diagnosis and staging. A PET scanner is a complex machine which comprises photodetectors placed in a ring configuration that detect gamma photons gene ...
In 1948, Claude Shannon laid the foundations of information theory, which grew out of a study to find the ultimate limits of source compression, and of reliable communication. Since then, information theory has proved itself not only as a quest to find the ...
Natural language processing has experienced significant improvements with the development of Transformer-based models, which employ self-attention mechanism and pre-training strategies. However, these models still present several obstacles. A notable issue ...
Single-photon 3D cameras can record the time-of-arrival of billions of photons per second with picosecond accuracy. One common approach to summarize the photon data stream is to build a per-pixel timestamp histogram, resulting in a 3D histogram tensor that ...
Codebook-based optimizations are a class of algorithmic-level transformations able to effectively reduce the computing and memory requirements of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). This approach tightly limits the number of unique weights in each layer, ...
