In the wealthy and orderly city of Geneva, Switzerland, accommodation centres built in haste between the 1950s and the 1980s to house seasonal guestworkers from southern Europe are still standing and still inhabited. Today's residents are precarious worker ...
Various bias-correction methods such as EXTRA, DIGing, and exact diffusion have been proposed recently to solve distributed deterministic optimization problems. These methods employ constant step-sizes and converge linearly to the exact solution under prop ...
In multimedia content sharing social networks, tags assigned to content play an important role in search and retrieval. In other words, by annotating multimedia content, users can associate a word or a phrase (tag) with that resource such that it can be se ...
At the prime 2, Behrens, Hill, Hopkins and Mahowald showed that M-2 (1, 4) admits a 32-periodic v(2)-self-map. More recently, in joint work with Mahowald, we showed that A(1) also admits a 32-periodic v(2)-self-map. This leads to the question of whether th ...
Most state-of-the-art approaches to action recognition rely on global representations either by concatenating local information in a long descriptor vector or by computing a single location independent histogram. This limits their performance in presence o ...
Looking across a tidal landscape, can one foresee the signs of impending shifts among different geomorphological structures? This is a question of paramount importance considering the ecological, cultural and socio-economic relevance of tidal environments ...
In 1984, in his Discovering the Vernacular Landscape, John Brinckerhoff Jackson stated that it is through the study of the vernacular that we could finally arrive to give a complete definition of the landscape and of its beauty because it expresses the ide ...

This paper describes a heterogeneous DNA-hybridization assay based on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection on gold electrodes. Short, 15-mer oligonucleotides were conjugated with a synthesized electrochemiluminescent label, bis(2,2′-bipyridine)-5-isoth ...
Burnashev in 1976 gave an exact expression for the reliability function of a discrete memoryless channel (DMC) with noiseless feedback. A coding scheme that achieves this exponent needs, in general, to know the statistics of the channel. Suppose now that t ...
What are the impacts of a re-designed public transportation system in a city where social differences are heavily manifested in spatial separation, i.e. where exist certain inequalities concerning the access to daily activities and participation in urban l ...
