High-speed multiplane structured illumination microscopy of living cells using an image-splitting prism

Theo Lasser, Aleksandra Radenovic, Vytautas Navikas, Tomas Lukes, Adrien Charles-François Raymond Descloux

Super-resolution structured illumination microscopy (SR-SIM) can be conducted at video-rate acquisition speeds when combined with high-speed spatial light modulators and sCMOS cameras, rendering it particularly suitable for live-cell imaging. If, however, ...

An inverse optimization approach to understand human acquisition of kinematic coordination in bimanual fine manipulation tasks

Aude Billard, Kunpeng Yao

Tasks that require the cooperation of both hands and arms are common in human everyday life. Coordination helps to synchronize in space and temporally motion of the upper limbs. In fine bimanual tasks, coordination enables also to achieve higher degrees of ...

A Comparison of Social Robot to Tablet and Teacher in a New Script Learning Context

Pierre Dillenbourg, Thibault Lucien Christian Asselborn, Wafa Monia Benkaouar Johal

This research occurred in a special context where Kazakhstan's recent decision to switch from Cyrillic to the Latin-based alphabet has resulted in challenges connected to teaching literacy, addressing a rare combination of research hypotheses and technical ...

What is Trending on Wikipedia? Capturing Trends and Language Biases Across Wikipedia Editions

Pierre Vandergheynst, Nicolas Aspert, Volodymyr Miz, Benjamin Ricaud, Joëlle Hanna

In this work, we propose an automatic evaluation and comparison of the browsing behavior of Wikipedia readers that can be applied to any language editions of Wikipedia. As an example, we focus on English, French, and Russian languages during the last four ...

Multilingual and Unsupervised Subword Modeling for Zero-Resource Languages

Enno Hermann

Subword modeling for zero-resource languages aims to learn low-level representations of speech audio without using transcriptions or other resources from the target language (such as text corpora or pronunciation dictionaries). A good representation should ...

High gamma response tracks different syntactic structures in homophonous phrases

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Syntax is a species-specific component of human language combining a finite set of words in a potentially infinite number of sentences. Since words are by definition expressed by sound, factoring out syntactic information is normally impossible. Here, we c ...

Accelerated T(2)Mapping of the Lumbar Intervertebral Disc Highly Undersampled K-Space Data for Robust T(2)Relaxation Time Measurement in Clinically Feasible Acquisition Times

Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Michael Weber

Objectives T(2)mapping of the intervertebral disc (IVD) can depict quantitative changes reflecting biochemical change due to loss of glycosaminoglycan content. Conventional T(2)mapping is usually performed using a 2-dimensional multi-echo-spin echo sequenc ...

The Unstoppable Rise of Computational Linguistics in Deep Learning

James Henderson

In this paper, we trace the history of neural networks applied to natural language understanding tasks, and identify key contributions which the nature of language has made to the development of neural network architectures. We focus on the importance of v ...

Image-Based Acquisition and Modeling of Polarimetric Reflectance

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Tizian Lucien Zeltner, Xin Tong

Realistic modeling of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) of scene objects is a vital prerequisite for any type of physically based rendering. In the last decades, the availability of databases containing real-world material measurem ...

LaMBERT: Light and Multigranular BERT

Ljupche Milosheski

Pre-training complex language models is essential for the success of the recent methods such as BERT or OpenAI GPT. Their size makes not only the pre-training phase, but also consecutive applications to be computationally expensive. BERT-like models excel ...
