Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

A review on dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). Some brief notes on solar energy in general and DSC in particular are given, followed by a discussion of the operational principles of DSC (energetics and kinetics). Then, the development of material component ...

X-band MEMS technology for integrated Radar modules

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Montserrat Fernandez-Bolanos Badia

This paper reports on the potential of RF-MEMS technology to improve and miniaturize new functions in Radar front end and antenna modules. The insertion of new MEMS components and subsystems, using RF-MEMS switches, filters and phase shifters, in radar fro ...

MODEM: a multi-agent hierarchical structure to model the human motor control system

Auke Ijspeert

Abstract In this study, based on behavioral and neurophysiological facts, a new hierarchical multi-agent architecture is proposed to model the human motor control system. Performance of the proposed structure is investigated by simulating the control of si ...

Detecting queues at vending machines: a statistical layered approach

Jean-Marc Odobez

This paper presents a method for monitoring activities at a ticket vending machine in a video-surveillance context. Rather than relying on the output of a tracking module, which is prone to errors, the events are direclty recognized from image measurements ...

Modelling Complex Fenestration Systems

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Anothai Thanachareonkit

Complex Fenestration Systems (CFS) are widely studied to help redirecting daylight into a room in order to optimise its luminous properties. Daylighting designers and researchers usually employ physical and virtual models to assess their daylighting perfor ...

Comparing daylighting performance assessment of buildings in scale models and test modules

Marilyne Andersen, Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Anothai Thanachareonkit

Physical models are commonly used to assess daylighting performance of buildings using sky simulators for purpose of research as well as practice. Recent studies have pointed out the general tendency of scale model assessments to overestimate the performan ...

Error Handling in Multimodal Biometric Systems using Reliability Measures

In this paper, we present a framework for predicting and correcting classification decision errors based on modality reliability measures in a multimodal biometric system. In our experiments we use face and speech experts based on a recently proposed frame ...

A probabilistic framework for joint head tracking and pose estimation

Jean-Marc Odobez, Silèye Oumar Ba

Head Tracking and pose estimation are usually considered as two sequential and separate problems: pose is estimated on the head patch provided by a tracking module. However, precision in head pose estimation is dependent on tracking accuracy which itself c ...

Une structure active de type tensegrité

Etienne Fest

A tensegrity is a lightweight space reticulated structure consisting of compression members — struts — surrounded by a network of tension members — cables — that provide rigidity and stability. They can be easily dismantled and therefore, they provide inno ...
