Extracting value and insights from increasingly heterogeneous data sources involves multiple systems combining and consuming the data. With multi-modal and context-rich data such as strings, text, videos, or images, the problem of standardizing the data mo ...
Selection and aggregation of ranking criteria became an important topic in information retrieval as search is getting more specialized and as volume of electronically available information grows. In this context, document ranking has undergone a shift from ...
The size of digital libraries is increasing, making navigation and access to information more challenging. Improving the system by observing the users’ activities can help at providing better services to users of very large digital libraries. In this paper ...
Computational neuroscience has produced a diversity of software for simulations of networks of spiking neurons, with both negative and positive consequences. On the one hand, each simulator uses its own programming or configuration language, leading to con ...
The paper describes a system platform for virtual human agent simulations that is able to coherently manage the shared virtual environment. Our “agent common environment” (ACE) provides built-in commands for perception and for acting, while the ...
The CERN Host Interface (CHI) is a family of interfaces to interconnect Fastbus, VMEbus, and external host computers. The Fastbus interface consists of a processor board (CHI-P) and host-specific I/O ports allowing connection using fast parallel or serial ...
The goal of the d-Rank project is to study rank aggregation in scientific publication databases. In our work we focus in particular on document ranking in the domain of particle physics and we work with the collection of CERN publications called the CERN D ...
The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) has introduced a Learning Management System (LMS) based on Moodle. This trend was a source of motivation for our teaching staff who have initiated a project called Exomatic for the enhancement of ...
Ranking in scientific publication databases involves a variety of additional resources that are usually not applied in standard general purpose search engines. Moreover, community-specific expectations of users influence the perception of the adequacy of r ...
