The aim of this paper is to analyze and to improve the current planning process of the passenger railway service. At first, the state-of-the-art in research is presented. However, given the recent changes in legislature allowing competitors in the railway ...
Whether, when, how, and why increased complexity evolves in biological populations is a longstanding open question. In this work we combine a recently developed method for evolving virtual organisms with an information-theoretic metric of morphological com ...
Compressed sensing is a new trend in signal processing for efficient sampling and signal acquisition. The idea is that most real-world signals have a sparse representation in an appropriate basis and this can be exploited to capture the sparse signal by ta ...
In the biometrics community, face and speaker recognition are mature fields in which several systems have been proposed over the past twenty years. While existing systems perform well under controlled recording conditions, mismatch caused by the use of dif ...
Reinforced concrete coupled walls are a common lateral load resisting system used in multi-storey buildings. The effect of the coupling beams can improve seismic performance, but at the same time adds complexity to the design procedure. A case study couple ...
Certain optimization problems in communication systems, such as limited-feedback constant-envelope beamforming or noncoherent M-ary phase-shift keying (MPSK) sequence detection, result in the maximization of a fixed-rank positive semidefinite quadratic for ...

In this paper, the fast alternating minimization algorithm (FAMA) is proposed to solve model predictive control (MPC) problems with polytopic and second-order cone constraints. We extend previous theoretical results of FAMA to a more general case, where co ...
This article presents the first tight bounds on the time complexity of shared-memory renaming, a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which a set of processes need to pick distinct identifiers from a small namespace. We first prove an individual ...
MIBS is a 32-round lightweight block cipher with 64-bit block size and two different key sizes, namely 64-bit and 80-bit keys. Bay et al. provided the first impossible differential, differential and linear cryptanalyses of MIBS. Their best attack was a lin ...
Achieving perfect scale-invariance is usually not possible using classical color image features. This is mostly because of the fact that a traditional image is a two-dimensional projection of the real world. In contrast, light field imaging makes available ...
