Adaptive table placement in NUMA architectures

Techniques and solutions are provided for performing adaptive database table placement in a non-uniform memory access (NUMA) architecture. The adaptive table placement can occur in response to changing workloads on the NUMA nodes. For example, if a particu ...

Theory-based scaling laws of near and far scrape-off layer widths in single-null L-mode discharges

Paolo Ricci, Holger Reimerdes, Jan Horacek, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Maurizio Giacomin, Adriano Stagni

Theory-based scaling laws of the near and far scrape-off layer (SOL) widths are analytically derived for L-mode diverted tokamak discharges by using a two-fluid model. The near SOL pressure and density decay lengths are obtained by leveraging a balance amo ...

On the Effectiveness of Vision Transformers for Zero-shot Face Anti-Spoofing

Sébastien Marcel

The vulnerability of face recognition systems to presentation attacks has limited their application in security-critical scenarios. Automatic methods of detecting such malicious attempts are essential for the safe use of facial recognition technology. Alth ...

Adaptive partitioning and indexing for in situ query processing

Anastasia Ailamaki, Manolis Karpathiotakis, Ioannis Alagiannis, Manoussos Gavriil Athanassoulis, Matthaios Alexandros Olma

The constant flux of data and queries alike has been pushing the boundaries of data analysis systems. The increasing size of raw data files has made data loading an expensive operation that delays the data-to-insight time. To alleviate the loading cost, in ...

A fully joint Bayesian quantitative trait locus mapping of human protein abundance in plasma

Anthony Christopher Davison, Jörg Hager, Hélène Ruffieux, Radu Popescu

Molecular quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses are increasingly popular to explore the genetic architecture of complex traits, but existing studies do not leverage shared regulatory patterns and suffer from a large multiplicity burden, which hampers the ...

Domain Adaptation in Multi-Channel Autoencoder based Features for Robust Face Anti-Spoofing

Sébastien Marcel

While the performance of face recognition systems has improved significantly in the last decade, they are proved to be highly vulnerable to presentation attacks (spoofing). Most of the research in the field of face presentation attack detection (PAD), was ...

PaRiS: Causally Consistent Transactions with Non-blocking Reads and Partial Replication

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Kristina Spirovska

Geo-replicated data platforms are at the backbone of several large-scale online services. Transactional Causal Consistency (TCC) is an attractive consistency level for building such platforms. TCC avoids many anomalies of eventual consistency, eschews the ...
