Light Field Synthesis Using Inexpensive Surveillance Camera Systems

We present a light field synthesis technique that achieves accurate reconstruction given a low-cost, wide-baseline camera rig. Our system integrates optical flow with methods for rectification, disparity estimation, and feature extraction, which we then fe ...

Total Synthesis of Alstolactine A & Synthetic Studies Towards Members of Akuammiline Alkaloids

Raphaël Beltran

The work presented in this thesis focuses on the synthesis of monoterpene indole alkaloids. The first part describes the development of a general methodology to provide an enantioenriched platform, useful for the convergent synthesis of Akuammiline alkalo ...

Efficient inference for genetic association studies with multiple outcomes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Jörg Hager, Hélène Ruffieux

Combined inference for heterogeneous high-dimensional data is critical in modern biology, where clinical and various kinds of molecular data may be available from a single study. Classical genetic association studies regress a single clinical outcome on ma ...

Hierarchical Fingertip Space: A Unified Framework for Grasp Planning and In-Hand Grasp Adaptation

Aude Billard, Miao Li

We present a unified framework for grasp planning and in-hand grasp adaptation using visual, tactile, and proprioceptive feedback. The main objective of the proposed framework is to enable fingertip grasping by addressing problems of changed weight of the ...

Integrating gene synthesis and microfluidic protein analysis for rapid protein engineering

Sebastian Maerkl, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Ekaterina Emilova Petrova, Matthew Christopher Blackburn

The capability to rapidly design proteins with novel functions will have a significant impact on medicine, biotechnology and synthetic biology. Synthetic genes are becoming a commodity, but integrated approaches have yet to be developed that take full adva ...

Integrating Gene Synthesis and MITOMI for Rapid Protein Engineering

Matthew Christopher Blackburn

The research described within this thesis is primarily motivated by two fields of science with reversed, yet complementary, approaches to addressing the same essential objective: manipulating and understanding the complex program of life. Whereas synthetic ...

Population Synthesis: A Different Perspective

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq

Microsimulation of urban systems evolution requires synthetic population as a key input. Currently, the focus is on treating synthesis as a fitting problem and thus various techniques have been developed, including Iterative Proportional Fitting (IPF) and ...

Seeing through turbidity with harmonic holography [Invited]

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu

The ability to see inside the body noninvasively is indispensable in modern biology and medicine. Optical approaches to such abilities are of rapidly growing interest because of their nonionizing nature and low cost. However, the problem of opacity due to ...

Synthesizing Data on Agents and Their Associations: A Simulation and Graph Theoretic Approach

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq

Data on the entire population is almost never publicly available. Moreover, there is an alarming trend of discontinuing the exercise of conducting full Census in many countries (Belgium, Switzerland, etc.). In this context, population synthesis techniques ...
