This thesis presents an investigation of the models describing electrical conductivity in polymer nanocomposites, which consist in more or less random dispersions of nanometric conductive fillers like carbon nanotubes, nanofibers or graphene sheets in a po ...
The study of genomic inversions (or reversals) has been a mainstay of computational genomics for nearly 20 years. After the initial breakthrough of Hannenhalli and Pevzner, who gave the first polynomial-time algorithm for sorting signed permutations by inv ...
We give compact extended formulations for the packing and partitioning orbitopes (with respect to the full symmetric group) described and analyzed in Kaibel and Pfetsch [Kaibel, V., M. E. Pfetsch. 2008. Packing and partitioning orbitopes. Math. Programming ...
DNA is a long polymer with the form of a double helix of about two nanometers diameter (2.10-9 meters). It is composed of nucleotides whose sequence carries the information of heredity. The four possible nucleotides have slightly different geometries, and ...
We use cryo-electron microscopy to compare 3D shapes of 158 bp long DNA minicircles that differ only in the sequence within an 18 bp block containing either a TATA box or a catabolite activator protein binding site. We present a sorting algorithm that corr ...
Sphere decoding (SD) is widely considered as one of the most promising detection schemes for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems. The recently proposed list sphere-decoding (LSD) algorithm is an extension of the original SD algorith ...

Alginate gel formation on-chip is presented in the first part of this thesis. The technique allows immobilization, and release, of biological cells on-chip. Furthermore, via layer by layer deposition, a locally heterogeneous environment can be generated at ...
This paper proposes a new modular multiplication method that uses Montgomery residues defined by a modulus M and a Montgomery radix R whose value is less than the modulus M. This condition enables the operand multiplier to be split into two parts that can ...
Whether different brain networks are involved in generating unimanual responses to a simple visual stimulus presented in the ipsilateral versus contralateral hemifield remains a controversial issue. Visuo-motor routing was investigated with event-related f ...
Inspired by the combinatorial denoising method {\tt DUDE} \cite{WOSVW04}, we present efficient algorithms for implementing this idea for arbitrary contexts or for using it within subsequences. We also propose effective, efficient denoising error estimators ...
