As large-scale theft of data from corporate servers is becoming increasingly common, it becomes interesting to examine alternatives to the paradigm of centralizing sensitive data into large databases. Instead, one could use cryptography and distributed com ...
Recent work has developed a modeling method applicable to certain types of signals having a "finite rate of innovation" (FRI). Such signals contain a sparse collection of time- or frequency-limited pulses having a restricted set of allowable pulse shapes. ...
Self-incompatibility (SI), a reproductive system broadly present in plants, chordates, fungi, and protists, might be controlled by one or several multiallelic loci. How a transition in the number of SI loci can occur and the consequences of such events for ...
The Molasse is a geologic formation which covers most part of the Swiss plateau. This sedimentary formation is constituted by various types of rock such as sandstones, marls (claystones) and siltstones. The Rock Mechanics Laboratory (LMR) of the EPFL has a ...
Thymio II is a small robot developed for education. It aims at offering a wide public the possibility to understand the basics of robotics and programming. To achieve this, it aims at being appealing to a large age range and serve as a medium for several t ...
Public cloud platforms might start with homogeneous hardware; nevertheless, because of inevitable hardware upgrades, or adding more capacity, the initial homogeneous platform will gradually evolve into heterogeneous as time passes by. The consequent perfor ...
Let u be a unipotent element of a simple algebraic group G over a field k of characteristic p. We develop a method for computing the connected component of Z(C-G(u)) in the cases where p is positive and both it and the rank of G are small enough. The metho ...
We identify the multilayered compound GeBi4Te7 to be a topological insulator with a Dirac point slightly above the valence band maximum, using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements. The spin polarization satisfies the time reversal ...
We start by describing how higher-order function support can be added to a (first order) functional verification framework. We cover both the higher-order construct management and framework extensions necessary for constraint specification. Next, we outlin ...
We integrate latent attitudes of individuals into a mode choice model through latent variable and latent class models with the help of psychometric indicators that enable us to measure these attitudes. The aim of the inclusion of attitudes is to better und ...
