Les grands projets urbains entre global et local : une étude de cas comparative de Casablanca et de Genève à travers les logiques de marché et les résistances locales.

Kamil Hajji

Globalization implies profound changes in territories that involve the emergence of major urban renewal projects. It has the effect of increasing competition between metropolises. In order to make a place for themselves in this increasingly competitive glo ...

Towards a Global Ritual: Diffusion of Culture in Unsettled Times

Alexandre André Robert Rigal

Can we speak of a society without rituals? Rituals create a group's identity by way of collective categories, emotion, and beliefs. The many extensions to the concept of the ritual often have focused on local and national contexts. Given that scholars of r ...

How hard is to distinguish graphs with graph neural networks?

Andreas Loukas

A hallmark of graph neural networks is their ability to distinguish the isomorphism class of their inputs. This study derives hardness results for the classification variant of graph isomorphism in the message-passing model (MPNN). MPNN encompasses the maj ...

Adaptive Risk-Based Replanning For Human-Aware Multi-Robot Task Allocation With Local Perception

Alcherio Martinoli, Zeynab Talebpour

In this letter, we propose an adaptive risk-based replanning strategy in the context of multirobot task allocation for dealing with limitations of local perception and unpredicted human behavior. Our replanning method is based on the variations of social r ...

Beyond Bouma's window: How to explain global aspects of crowding?

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Aaron Michael Clarke, Alban Bornet

In crowding, perception of an object deteriorates in the presence of nearby elements. Although crowding is a ubiquitous phenomenon, since elements are rarely seen in isolation, to date there exists no consensus on how to model it. Previous experiments show ...

Real-Time 3D Hand Pose Estimation with 3D Convolutional Neural Networks

Daniel Thalmann, Hui Liang

In this paper, we present a novel method for real-time 3D hand pose estimation from single depth images using 3D Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Image-based features extracted by 2D CNNs are not directly suitable for 3D hand pose estimation due to th ...

Resolving biogeochemical processes in lakes using remote sensing

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Theo Baracchini, Vincent Maurice Nouchi

Remote sensing helps foster our understanding of inland water processes allowing a synoptic view of water quality parameters. In the context of global monitoring of inland waters, we demonstrate the benefit of combining in-situ water analysis, hydrodynamic ...
