A unified framework for rich routing problems with stochastic demands

Michel Bierlaire, Sacha Varone, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon, Iliya Dimitrov Markov

We introduce a unified framework for rich vehicle and inventory routing problems with complex physical and temporal constraints. Demands are stochastic, can be non-stationary, and are forecast using any model that provides the expected demands and their er ...

Improving the theoretical underpinnings of process-based hydrologic models

Bettina Schaefli, Serena Ceola

In this Commentary, we argue that it is possible to improve the physical realism of hydrologic models by making better use of existing hydrologic theory. We address the following questions: (1) what are some key elements of current hydrologic theory; (2) h ...

Does Stanford's induction apply to engineering sciences?

Tao-Chun Lee

Recent works in scientific realism by Stanford (2006) and Chakravartty (2008) have generated interests in the research of a more selective and sophisticated scientific realism. Such debates advance the philosophical development of scientific realism, and a ...

Mammographic texture synthesis: second-generation clustered lumpy backgrounds using a genetic algorithm

François Bochud, Cyril Castella

Synthetic yet realistic images are valuable for many applications in visual sciences and medical imaging. Typically, investigators develop algorithms and adjust their parameters to generate images that are visually similar to real images. In this study, we ...

Augmented reality for non-rigid surfaces

Julien Pilet

Augmented Reality (AR) is the process of integrating virtual elements in reality, often by mixing computer graphics into a live video stream of a real scene. It requires registration of the target object with respect to the cameras. To this end, some appro ...

Development of a Microsurgery Training System

Hannes Bleuler, Etienne Burdet, Fei Wang

Surgeons require significant training to acquire sufficient dexterity and hand-eye coordination to manipulate objects skilfully under the microscope. This paper presents a computer-based real-time simulation of microsurgery as well as the hardware setup. I ...

A Computer-Based Real-Time Simulation of Interventional Radiology

Hannes Bleuler, Lindo Robert Duratti, Fei Wang, Evren Samur

Interventional radiology is a minimally invasive procedure where thin instruments, guidewires and catheters or stents are steered through the patient’s vascular system under X- ray imaging for treatment of vascular diseases. The complexity of these procedu ...

Shadow segmentation and tracking in real-world conditions

Elena Salvador

Visual information, in the form of images and video, comes from the interaction of light with objects. Illumination is a fundamental element of visual information. Detecting and interpreting illumination effects is part of our everyday life visual experien ...
