Comparing Dynamics: Deep Neural Networks versus Glassy Systems

Mario Geiger, Marco Baity-Jesi, Rainer Wesche, Stefano Spigler, Levent Dogus Sagun

We analyze numerically the training dynamics of deep neural networks (DNN) by using methods developed in statistical physics of glassy systems. The two main issues we address are the complexity of the loss-landscape and of the dynamics within it, and to wh ...

3D Steerable CNNs: Learning Rotationally Equivariant Features in Volumetric Data

Mario Geiger

We present a convolutional network that is equivariant to rigid body motions. The model uses scalar-, vector-, and tensor fields over 3D Euclidean space to represent data, and equivariant convolutions to map between such representations. These SE(3)-equiva ...

CFSpro: ray tracing for design and optimization of complex fenestration systems using mixed dimensionality approach

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Andreas Schueler, André Gabriel Kostro, Mario Geiger

Advanced optical ray tracing software, CFSpro, was developed for the study and optimization of complex fenestration systems (CFSs). Using an algorithm mixing 2D and 3D approaches, accurate computation of large numbers of rays in extruded geometries can be ...

Thermal solar collector with VO2 absorber coating and V1-xWxO2 thermochromic glazing – Temperature matching and triggering

Andreas Schueler, Mario Geiger, Rosendo Sanjines, Antonio Paone

Overheating is a common problem both with the use of active and passive solar energy in thermal solar energy systems and in highly glazed buildings, even in central European latitudes. In solar thermal collectors, the elevated temperatures occurring during ...

Embedded microstructures for daylighting and seasonal thermal control

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Yves Leterrier, Andreas Schueler, André Gabriel Kostro, Mario Geiger, Nicolas Jolissaint

A novel concept for an advanced fenestration system was studied and samples were produced to demonstrate the feasibility. The resulting novel glazing will combine the functions of daylighting, glare protection, and seasonal thermal control. Coated microstr ...

Towards microstructured glazing for daylighting and thermal control

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Andreas Schueler, André Gabriel Kostro, Mario Geiger

Glass is a central element to modern architecture and can cover up to 100% of a building façade. The main purpose of large glazed areas is to create bright, comfortable and healthy spaces. It was shown that increasing natural light in offices reduces sickn ...
