We propose a new method to unmix hyperspectral images. Our method exploits the structure of the material abundance maps by assuming that in some regions of the spatial dimension, only one material is present. Such regions provide a local estimate of the en ...

The economic growth inherent to our nowadays society pushes the industries toward better performances. In the mechatronic context, the increasing competition results in more and more stringent specifications. Thus, the multiple objectives to track become h ...
This paper shows that the capacity achieving input distribution for a fading Gaussian broadcast channel is not Gaussian in general. The construction of non-Gaussian distributions that strictly outperform Gaussian ones, for certain characterized fading dist ...

Spatial and temporal parameters of gait have clinical relevance in the assessment of motor pathologies, particularly in orthopaedics. A new gait analysis system is proposed which consists of (a) an ambulatory device (Physilog(R)) including a set of miniatu ...
Manipulating small objects such as needles, screws or plates inside the human body during minimally invasive surgery can be very difficult for less experienced surgeons due to the loss of 3D depth perception. Classical navigation techniques are often incap ...
Two methods to fuse a 3D gyroscope with a 3D accelerometer in order to measure rotations are presented. They are compared with a method requiring only a 3D gyroscope and assessed with a reference system. The good reported accuracies make this system suitab ...
A new method of monitoring physical activity that is able to detect walking upstairs using a miniature gyroscope attached to the shank is presented. Wavelet transformation, in conjunction with a simple kinematics model, was used to detect toe-off, heel-str ...
Climate has a direct impact on cities' energy flows due to the space conditioning (heating, cooling) needs of the buildings accommodated. This impact may be reinforced due to climate change and to the (so called) urban heat island effect. The corresponding ...
Training Support Vector Machine can become very challenging in large scale problems. Training several lower complexity SVMs on local subsets of the training set can significantly reduce the training complexity and also improve the classification performanc ...
In this paper, a complete system is presented which mimics a QWERTY keyboard on an arbitrary surface. The system consists of a pattern projector and a true-3D range camera for detecting the typing events. We exploit depth information acquired with the 3D r ...
