Dalmine and its Industrial Politics Translated into Type
The research examines the entanglement of urban rationalities and industrial biopolitics in constructing company towns' identities and spatialities, providing different housing typologies for its workers. An epitome of spatial production under industrial p ...
2023Deploying an Instance Segmentation Algorithm to Implement Social Distancing for Prosthetic Vision
Silvestro Micera, Daniela De Luca
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak is causing a dramatic worsening in the already complicated living conditions of blind and visually impaired individuals. Social distancing is the most effective strategy to limit virus spread, but is extremely difficult for b ...
IEEE2022A (2+epsilon)-Approximation Algorithm for Preemptive Weighted Flow Time on a Single Machine
Weighted flow time is a fundamental and very well-studied objective function in scheduling. In this paper, we study the setting of a single machine with preemptions. The input consists of a set of jobs, characterized by their processing times, release time ...
ASSOC COMPUTING MACHINERY2021The electric autonomous dial-a-ride problem
This thesis develops mathematical programming frameworks to operate electric autonomous vehicles in the context of ride-sharing services. The introduced problem is a novel variant of the Dial-a-Ride Problem (DARP), denoted by the electric Autonomous Dial-a ...
EPFL2020Device for measuring a force exerted on an object
Simon Nessim Henein, Charles Baur, Mohammad Hussein Kahrobaiyan, Mohamed Gamal Abdelrahman Ahmed Zanaty
The present invention relates to a device for measuring a contact force exerted by an object on a probe comprising a lever and said probe for contacting the object. The lever is pivotably coupled to a body by coupling means. The device comprising a fixed f ...
2020A Novel Approach to Modeling Enterprise Services Leveraging Object Cloning and Multilevel Classification
Object-oriented modeling is concerned with capturing common properties of objects. The dominant thinking in this realm is to classify objects that share certain properties into what is called a class, which in turn enables us to instantiate additional obje ...
IEEE2019Measurement data interpretation and prediction for optimal management of bridges
For many developed countries, the asset management of aging infrastructure continues to present challenges and risks. Around the world, built-environment assets such as bridges, require functional changes and future-proofing in order to accommodate new and ...
EPFL2019The electric autonomous dial-a-ride problem
Nikolaos Geroliminis, Claudia Bongiovanni, Mor Kaspi
In the Dial-a-Ride-Problem (DARP) a fleet of vehicles provides shared-ride services to users specifying their origin, destination, and preferred arrival time. Typically, the problem consists of finding minimum cost routes, satisfying operational constraint ...
Elsevier2019Low-rank tensor methods for large Markov chains and forward feature selection methods
Francisco Santos Paredes Quartin de Macedo
In the first part of this thesis, we present and compare several approaches for the determination of the steady-state of large-scale Markov chains with an underlying low-rank tensor structure. Such structure is, in our context of interest, associated with ...
EPFL2018The online electric autonomous dial-a-ride problem
The DARP (Dial-a-Ride Problem) is concerned with providing service to a number of requests, specifying their location of origin and destination, as well as time windows indicating their desired service time for at least one of the locations. In the dynamic ...
