A special sensor is proposed for magnetization measurement of superconductors with round cross section under pulsed transversal field. The sensor consists of a saddle shaped pick-up coil attached to the cylindrical superconducting sample, with a controlled ...
This thesis is a contribution to multivariate extreme value statistics. The tail of a multivariate distribution function is characterized by its spectral distribution, for which we propose a new semi-parametric model based on mixtures of Dirichlet distribu ...
Small angle neutron scattering experiments have been undertaken on the tempered martensitic steel EUROFER97 after proton irradiation at 250 and 350 degreesC and for doses of 0.3 and 1 dpa. It has been qualitatively shown that the scattering arises from dis ...
With the appearance of Peer-to-Peer information systems the interest in scalable and decentralized data access structures is attracting increasingly interest. We propose to that end P-Grid, a scalable data access structure resulting from the distribution o ...
The Preisach approach was used to describe the widely observed quadratic field dependence of the direct longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient and its associated hysteresis loop. In this perspective, a four parameters distribution function was put forward ...
Microbial size spectra, including bacteria through nanophytoplankton, were measured by use of how cytometry across the western north Atlantic Ocean and during two nutrient enrichment studies: bottle enrichments in the Sargasso Sea and an in situ iron enric ...
The method of wavelet thresholding for removing noise, or denoising, has been researched extensively due to its effectiveness and simplicity. Much of the literature has focused on developing the best uniform threshold or best basis selection. However, not ...
We present a general method for maintaining estimates of the distribution of parameters in arbitrary models. This is then applied to the estimation of probability distribution over actions in value-based reinforcement learning. While this approach is simil ...
This paper addresses evaluation and visualization of stress and strain on soft biological tissues in contact given three-dimensional models of reconstructed organs from magnetic resonance images (MRI), we use an anatomy-based kinematical model combined wit ...
In this paper, we propose a face reconstruction technique that produces models that not only look good when texture mapped, but are also metrically accurate. Our method is designed to work with short uncalibrated video or movie sequences, even when the lig ...
