Multicomponent wavefield characterization with a novel scanning laser interferometer

Thomas Emmanuel Blum

The in-plane component of the wavefield provides valuable information about media properties from seismology to nondestructive testing. A new compact scanning laser ultrasonic interferometer collects light scattered away from the angle of incidence to prov ...

Venture Capitalists in Firm Governance: Impact on Founder Turnover

Anu Wadhwa

Prior literature tells us VCs are responsible for ousting founders from their leadership positions and replacing them with professional management around IPO time. This argument assumes all founders are equally incapable of running a company beyond the ini ...

Linear Parameter Varying Iterative Learning Control

Alireza Karimi, Mark Edward John Butcher

In this paper an Iterative Learning Control (ILC) algorithm is proposed for a certain class of Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems whose dynamics change between iterations. Consistency of the algorithm in the presence of stochastic disturbances is shown ...

Perceptual learning requires a minimal number of trials per session, but no sleep

Michael Herzog, Elisa Tartaglia, Carl Kristoffer Aberg

A common assumption in perceptual learning is that the improvement of performance basically depends on the amount of training. However, other factors such as sleep and training intensity (trials per session) have also been shown to be important. We trained ...

A century-old debate on protein aggregation and neurodegeneration enters the clinic

Hilal Lashuel

The correlation between neurodegenerative disease and protein aggregation in the brain has long been recognized, but a causal relationship has not been unequivocally established, in part because a discrete pathogenic aggregate has not been identified. The ...

Evaluation of Input Parameterization for Batch Process Optimization

Dominique Bonvin, Alejandro Gabriel Marchetti, Carsten Welz

For the optimization of dynamic systems, it is customary to use measurements to combat the effect of uncertainty. In this context, an approach that consists of tracking the necessary conditions of optimality is gaining in popularity. The approach relies st ...

Objective Evaluation of the Perceptual Quality of 3D Watermarking

Touradj Ebrahimi, Elisa Drelie Gelasca

In this paper an objective metric to measure the perceptual quality of watermarked 3D meshes is presented. The metric, which is based on a black-box approach, relies on the measurement of the roughness of 3D meshes before and after the insertion of the wat ...

Face Verification using MLP and SVM

Sébastien Marcel

The performance of machine learning algorithms has steadily improved over the past few years, such as MLP or more recently SVM. In this paper, we compare two successful discriminant machine learning algorithms apply to the problem of face verification: MLP ...
