Hierarchical processing underpins competition in tactile perceptual bistability
Ambiguous sensory information can lead to spontaneous alternations between perceptual states, recently shown to extend to tactile perception. The authors recently proposed a simplified form of tactile rivalry which evokes two competing percepts for a fixed ...
SPRINGER2023Peak Value-at-Risk Estimation for Stochastic Differential Equations using Occupation Measures
This paper proposes an algorithm to upper-bound maximal quantile statistics of a state function over the course of a Stochastic Differential Equation (SDE) system execution. This chance-peak problem is posed as a nonconvex program aiming to maximize the Va ...
New York2023Stochastic particle transport by deep-water irregular breaking waves
Correct prediction of particle transport by surface waves is crucial in many practical applications such as search and rescue or salvage operations and pollution tracking and clean-up efforts. Recent results by Deike et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 829, 2017, ...
Cambridge2023Diverse parameters of ambulatory knee moments differ with medial knee osteoarthritis severity and are combinable into a severity index
Objective: To characterize ambulatory knee moments with respect to medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) severity comprehensively and to assess the possibility of developing a severity index combining knee moment parameters. Methods: Nine parameters (peak amplit ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2023Safe Motion Planning against Multimodal Distributions Based on a Scenario Approach
We present the design of a motion planning algorithm that ensures safety for an autonomous vehicle. In particular, we consider a multimodal distribution over uncertainties; for example, the uncertain predictions of future trajectories of surrounding vehicl ...
2022Assessing normalization methods in mass spectrometry-based proteome profiling of clinical samples
Background: Large-scale proteomic studies have to deal with unwanted variability, especially when samples originate from different centers and multiple analytical batches are needed. Such variability is typically added throughout all the steps of a clinica ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2022PoGaIN: Poisson-Gaussian Image Noise Modeling From Paired Samples
Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Kaan Okumus
Image noise can often be accurately fitted to a Poisson-Gaussian distribution. However, estimating the distribution parameters from a noisy image only is a challenging task. Here, we study the case when paired noisy and noise-free samples are accessible. N ...
2022Tree root distribution modelling in different environmental conditions
David Andrew Barry, Paolo Perona, Massimiliano Schwarz
The ability to predict the spatial distribution of tree root system variables (e.g., the Root system Area (RA), the maximum root diameter, the number of roots in diameter classes, the density of fine roots, etc.) under different environmental conditions is ...
2022Information content and aerosol property retrieval potential for different types of in situ polar nephelometer data
Alireza Moallemi, Robin Lewis Modini, Philippe Giaccari
Polar nephelometers are in situ instruments used to measure the angular distribution of light scattered by aerosol particles. These types of measurements contain substantial information about the properties of the aerosol being probed (e.g. concentrations, ...
2022Comparison of Responses to DCN vs. VCN Stimulation in a Mouse Model of the Auditory Brainstem Implant (ABI)
Stéphanie Lacour, Florent-Valéry Coen, Nicolas Vachicouras
The auditory brainstem implant (ABI) is an auditory neuroprosthesis that provides hearing to deaf patients by electrically stimulating the cochlear nucleus (CN) of the brainstem. Whether such stimulation activates one or the other of the CN's two major sub ...
