SIMD Parallel Execution on GPU from High-Level Dataflow Synthesis

Marco Mattavelli, Simone Casale Brunet, Aurélien François Gilbert Bloch

Writing and optimizing application software for heterogeneous platforms including GPU units is a very difficult task that requires designer efforts and resources to consider several key elements to obtain good performance. Dataflow programming has shown to ...

Accurate Nod and 3D Gaze Estimation for Social Interaction Analysis

Yu Yu

Non-verbal behaviours play an important role in human communication since it can indicate human attention, serve as communication cue in interactions, or even reveal higher level personal constructs. For instance, head nod, a common non-verbal behaviour, c ...

Walkman: A Communication-Efficient Random-Walk Algorithm for Decentralized Optimization

Ali H. Sayed, Kun Yuan

This paper introduces a new algorithm for consensus optimization in a multi-agent network, where all agents collaboratively find a minimizer for the sum of their private functions. All decentralized algorithms rely on communications between adjacent nodes. ...

IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC2020

Rodents use rhythmic whisker movements at frequencies between 4 and 12 Hz to sense the environment that will be disturbed when the animal touches an object. The aim of this work is to study the response adaptation to rhythmic whisker stimulation trains at ...

No need to shout: Effect of signal loudness on sibling communication in barn owls

Hervé Lissek, Xavier Falourd, Patrick Marmaroli, Dorian Cazau

In animal communication, signal loudness is often ignored and seldom measured. We used a playback experiment to examine the role of vocal loudness (i.e., sound pressure level) in sibling to sibling communication of nestling barn owls Tyto alba. In this spe ...

Tunable insertion of multiple lines into a Kerr frequency comb using electro-optical modulators

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Yan Yan, Lin Zhang, Ahmad Fallahpour, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei, Cong Liu

We experimentally insert a flexible number of electro-optical (EO) comb lines into a Kerr frequency comb via EO modulation and demonstrate the use of combined Kerr and EO combs as light sources in coherent communications. The number of EO lines inserted in ...

Review of transportation mode detection approaches based on smartphone data

Michel Bierlaire, Marija Nikolic

The usage of smartphones has rapidly increased during the last years. In addition to communication capabilities, they are also equipped with several sensors, and are usually carried by people throughout the day. The data collected by the means of modern sm ...
