In the past years, it has been observed that some compounds present in our environment can disturb the reproduction and development of animals like fishes, birds, or reptiles by interfering with their endocrine system. Indeed, these endocrine disrupting co ...
Introduction In 1987, the need to strive towards development aimed at making it possible to satisfy the present needs without compromising the needs of future generations is generally acknowledged. The Rio Earth Summit in 1992 propagated Agenda 211, whi ...
Multistage carcinogenesis models describe the evolution of the cells in an individual's organ from a normal stage to a pre-neoplastic stage to a neoplastic stage. The triggers for the passage from one stage to the next one are presumed to be genetic altera ...
We present a framework for the autonomous discovery and selection of Semantic Web services based on their QoS properties. The novelty of our approach is the wide use of semantic technologies for a customizable discovery, which enables both the service user ...
This study examines the personal, institutional and macroeconomic determinants of individual votes on 36 environmental protection proposals put to vote over twenty-one years in Switzerland. It applies a hierarchical model allowing for heterogeneous voter m ...
This article illustrates the methods and results of two sets of experiments in which a group of mobile robots, called s-bots, are required to physically connect to each other, that is, to self-assemble, to cope with environmental conditions that prevent th ...
Detecting faces in images is a key step in numerous computer vision applications as face recognition for example. Face detection is a difficult task in image analysis because of the large face intra-class variability which is due to the important influence ...
A steady-state bubble-plume model is evaluated using full-scale temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen data collected in a Swiss Lake. The data revealed a plume-generated near-field environment that differed significantly from the ambient far-field wat ...
Bio-inspired electronic circuits have the potential to address some of the shortcomings of conventional electronic circuits, such as lack of applicability to ill-defined problems, of robustness, or of adaptivity to unexpectedly changing environments. Bio-i ...
