We describe a novel variational segmentation algorithm designed to split an image in two regions based on their intensity distributions. A functional is proposed to integrate the probability density functions of both regions within the optimization process ...
The performances of kriging, stochastic simulations and sequential self-calibration inversion are assessed when characterizing a non-multiGaussian synthetic 2D braided channel aquifer. The comparison is based on a series of criteria such as the reproductio ...
This paper compares the performance of seven disaggregation models, based on various approaches and/or concepts, for the generation of 10mn time step rainfall series from hourly rainfall series. The so-called constant disaggregation model and a linear mode ...
The radiative decay Bs->phi gamma is one of the benchmark channels in the physics programme of the LHCb experiment. It allows us to test the Standard Model through the indirect measurement of the photon polarization in Bs->phi gamma transitions. The estima ...
Reported MOSFET measurements concern mostly external radiotherapy and in vivo dosimetry. In this paper, we apply the technique for absolute dosimetry in the context of HDR brachytherapy using an 192Ir source. Measured radial dose rate distributions in wate ...
A novel uncertainty assessment methodology, based on a statistical non-parametric approach, is presented in this paper. It achieves quantification of code physical model uncertainty by making use of model performance information obtained from studies of ap ...
We report the first observation of the decay B̄0→Ds+Λ p̄ with a statistical significance of 6.6σ. We measure B(B̄0→Ds+Λp̄)=(2.9±0.7±0.5±0.4) ×10-5, where the first error is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third error comes from the uncertain ...
Predicting the disinfection performance of a full-scale reactor in drinking water treatment is associated with considerable uncertainty. In view of quantitative risk analysis, this study assesses the uncertainty involved in predicting inactivation of Crypt ...
In this paper, we present an uncertainty methodology based on a statistical approach, for assessing uncertainties in lattice code predictions of fuel composition changes with burnup due to uncertainties in the fuel geometric configuration, initial enrichme ...
In this paper we aim to explore what is the most appropriate number of data samples needed when measuring the temporal correspondence between a chosen set of video and audio cues in a given audio-visual sequence. Presently the optimal model that connects s ...
