Intrinsic Halide Segregation at Nanometer Scale Determines the High Efficiency of Mixed Cation/Mixed Halide Perovskite Solar Cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Kevin Sivula, Filippo de Angelis, Iwan Zimmermann, Giulia Grancini, Yonghui Lee, Paul Gratia, Xavier Adrian Jeanbourquin

Compositional engineering of a mixed cation/mixed halide perovskite in the form of (FAP-bI(3))(0.85)(MAPbBr(3))(0.15) is one of the most effective strategies to obtain record-efficiency perovskite solar cells. However, the perovskite self-organization upon ...

Mining, Modeling and Predicting Mobility

Mohamed Kafsi

Mobility is a central aspect of our life, and our movements reveal much more about us than simply our whereabouts. In this thesis, we are interested in mobility and study it from three different perspectives: the modeling perspective, the information-theor ...

A Probabilistic Approach to Mining Mobile Phone Data Sequences

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Katayoun Farrahi

We present a new approach to address the problem of large sequence mining from big data. The particular problem of interest is the effective mining of long sequences from large-scale location data to be practical for Reality Mining applications, which suff ...

From Discrete Measurements to Bounded Gradient Estimates: A Look at Some Regularizing Structures

Dominique Bonvin, Grégory François, Gene Bunin

Obtaining a reliable gradient estimate for an unknown function when given only its discrete measurements is a common problem in many engineering disciplines. While there are many approaches to obtaining an estimate of a gradient, obtaining lower and upper ...

Permutation-based Sequential Pattern Hiding

Robert Gwadera

Sequence data are increasingly shared to enable mining applications, in various domains such as marketing, telecommunications, and healthcare. This, however, may expose sensitive sequential patterns, which lead to intrusive inferences about individuals or ...

Towards a global participatory platform Democratising open data, complexity science and collective intelligence

Karl Aberer

The FuturICT project seeks to use the power of big data, analytic models grounded in complexity science, and the collective intelligence they yield for societal benefit. Accordingly, this paper argues that these new tools should not remain the preserve of ...
