Visual scene recognition deals with the problem of automatically recognizing the high-level semantic concept describing a given image as a whole, such as the environment in which the scene is occurring (e.g. a mountain), or the event that is taking place ( ...

Visual scene recognition deals with the problem of automatically recognizing the high-level semantic concept describing a given image as a whole, such as the environment in which the scene is occurring (e.g. a mountain), or the event that is taking place ( ...
In this paper we introduce methods for electromagnetic wave propagation, based on splines and on T-splines. We define spline spaces which form a De Rham complex and following the isogeometric paradigm, we map them on domains which are (piecewise) spline or ...
Natural compound-eyes consist of a large number of ommatidia that are arranged on curved surfaces and thus are able to detect signals from a wide field of view. We present an integrated artificial compound-eye sensor system with enhanced field of view of 1 ...
Electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have proved to be extremely valuable tools for the non-invasive study of human brain function. Moreover, due to a notable degree of complementarity between the two modalities, th ...
The connectedness percolation threshold (eta(c)) and critical coordination number (Z(c)) of systems of penetrable spherocylinders characterized by a length polydispersity are studied by way of Monte Carlo simulations for several aspect ratio distributions. ...
During natural locomotion, the stiffness of the human knee is modulated continuously and subconsciously according to the demands of activity and terrain. Given modern actuator technology, powered transfemoral prostheses could theoretically provide a simila ...

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics in the spinal subarachnoid space (SSS) have been thought to play an important pathophysiological role in syringomyelia, Chiari I malformation (CM), and a role in intrathecal drug delivery. Yet, the impact that fine anatom ...
Photodegradation of wood leads to discolouration and delignification, inducing damage to the cellular structure. This study is an investigation of the damage and loss of tensile strength of the cellulose fibres in spruce (Picea abies). Microtensile tests i ...
