This paper focuses on the analysis of the TBM performance recorded during the excavation of the Lotschberg Base Tunnel. The southern part of the tunnel was excavated by two gripper TBMs, partly through blocky rock masses at great depth. The jointed nature ...
Consider a two-class classification problem where the number of features is much larger than the sample size. The features are masked by Gaussian noise with mean zero and covariance matrix Sigma, where the precision matrix Omega = Sigma(-1) is unknown but ...
In this work, a magnetic measurement system was designed and tested to estimate the Internal-External rotation between the Tibial and Femural parts of a knee prosthesis. To obtain this, the sensors were inserted in polyethylene part while a permanent magne ...
Group-based sparsity models are proven instrumental in linear regression problems for recovering signals from much fewer measurements than standard compressive sensing. A promise of these models is to lead to “interpretable” signals for which we identify i ...
This lecture describes the following topics: • Dynamic Models - Conservation of Mass (Concentration Measurements) - Conservation of Energy (Calorimetry) - Beer’s Law (Spectroscop ...
To improve hydro-chemical modeling and forecasting, there is a need to better understand flood-induced variability in water chemistry and the processes controlling it in watersheds. In the literature, assumptions are often made, for instance, that stream c ...
Car-sharing business provides members access to a fleet of shared-use vehicles in a network of locations on a short-term, as-needed basis. It allows individuals to gain the benefits of private vehicle use without the costs and responsibilities of ownership ...
This work investigates the ability of free induction decay (FID) navigators to provide information on rigid head motion. FID navigators were incorporated in a gradient-echo sequence. In parallel, optical tracking data was acquired and served as the ground ...
In this article, we study the adaptation of visual and audio-visual speech recognition systems to non-ideal visual conditions. We focus on overcoming the effects of a changing pose of the speaker, a problem encountered in natural situations where the speak ...
The two-by-two dot centering model enables predicting the spectral reflectance of color halftones and does not depend on a specific halftoning algorithm. It requires measuring the reflectances of a large number of two-by-two calibration tile patterns. Spec ...
