Fast adaptive uniformisation of the chemical master equation

Maria-Emanuela-Canini Mateescu, Verena Wolf

Within systems biology there is an increasing interest in the stochastic behaviour of biochemical reaction networks. An appropriate stochastic description is provided by the chemical master equation, which represents a continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC). ...

SPM Measurements of Hydrophobic Interactions

Jürgen Brugger, Alcherio Martinoli, Rosario Maurizio Gullo, Loïc Jacot-Descombes, Grégory Mermoud, Joo Yeon Kim

This poster presents the measurement of the forces involved in the hydrophobic self assembly process. More precisely the objects of interest are hydrophilic semi spheres with a gold layer on the flat side. The gold layer has been coated with dodeca thiols ...

Diversity-Multiplexing Tradeoff for the MIMO Static Half-Duplex Relay

Olivier Lévêque

In this paper, we investigate the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of the multiple-antenna (MIMO) static half-duplex relay channel. A general expression is derived for the DMT upper bound, which can be achieved by a compress-and-forward protocol at th ...

Recent developments in numerical modelling of subsurface flow constructed wetlands

Alessandro Brovelli

Numerical modelling of subsurface flow constructed wetlands (CWs) gained increasing interest during the last years. The main objective of the modelling work is, on the one hand, to increase the insight in dynamics and functioning of the complex CW system b ...

A General Stochastic Volatility Model for the Pricing of Interest Rate Derivatives

Anders Trolle

We develop a tractable and flexible stochastic volatility multifactor model of the term structure of interest rates. It features unspanned stochastic volatility factors, correlation between innovations to forward rates and their volatilities, quasi-analyti ...

The empirical mode decomposition: a must-have tool in speckle interferometry?

Pierre Jacquot, Sébastien Equis

In a wider and wider range of research and engineering activities, there is a growing interest for full-field techniques, featuring nanometric sensitivities, and able to be addressed to dynamic behaviors characterization. Speckle interferometry (SI) techni ...

Classifying Material in the Real World

Barbara Caputo

Classifying materials from their appearance is challenging. Impressive results have been obtained under varying illumination and pose conditions. Still, the effect of scale variations and the possibility to generalise across different material samples are ...

On Fidelity Per Unit Cost

Bixio Rimoldi, Marius Kleiner

We consider source coding with a ﬁdelity criterion, channel coding with a channel input constraint, and the combined problem of reproducing a source across a noisy channel. All three cases face a similar tradeoff between resource and performance, and the o ...

Fusion materials development program in the broader approach activities

Nadine Baluc

Breeding blankets are the most important components in DEMO. The DEMO blanket has to withstand high neutron flux typically 15-30 dpa/year under continuous operation. Therefore integrated and effective development of blanket structural materials and breedin ...
