In this contribution, we describe a novel approach to the problem of setting micrometric droplets in motion. First, this paper reviews the state-of-the-art methods to enable millimetric droplet motion, and investigates the scalability of the most promising ...
The theory of the linear optical response of excitons in quantum wells and polaritons in planar semiconductor microcavities is reviewed, in the light of the existing experiments. For quantum well excitons, it is shown that disorder mainly affects the excit ...
Vision--based place recognition is a desirable feature for an autonomous mobile system. In order to work in realistic scenarios, a visual recognition algorithm should have two key properties: robustness and adaptability. This paper focuses on the latter, ...
We report on the results obtained during the commissioning phase of the volume photoemission (VOLPE) project, now operational at ESRF. Test experiments were performed on noble metals and highly correlated systems, analyzing photoelectrons with kinetic ener ...
A force-sensing device to intraoperatively measure knee joint forces and moments to improve the ligament balancing procedure during total knee arthroplasty has been developed. It consists of two sensitive plates, one for each condyle, a tibial base plate a ...
ICIP'05 Best Student Paper Award We investigate the use of quasi-interpolating approximation schemes, to construct an estimate of an unknown function from its given discrete samples. We show theoretically and with practical experiments that such methods pe ...
In this paper we present a method for automatic detection of motor intention from in vivo neuronal recordings in monkeys. The analysis relies on a data base of spike trains collected in a series of experiments aiming to study the hand-eye coordination mech ...
Previous studies showed that anodal transcranial DC stimulation (tDCS) applied to the primary motor cortex of the affected hemisphere (M1affected hemisphere) after subcortical stroke transiently improves performance of complex tasks that mimic activities o ...
Stroke is a leading cause of adult motor disability. Despite recent progress, recovery of motor function after stroke is usually incomplete. This double blind, Sham-controlled, crossover study was designed to test the hypothesis that non-invasive stimulati ...
This paper proposes a discriminative approach to template-based Vision-based place recognition is a desirable feature for an autonomous mobile system. In order to work in realistic scenarios, visual recognition algorithms should be adaptive, i.e. should be ...
