We consider the problem of distributed estimation, where a set of nodes are required to collectively estimate some parameter of interest. We motivate and propose new versions of the diffusion LMS algorithm, including a version that outperforms previous sol ...
Lossless transmission of a set of correlated sources over a deterministic relay network is considered for two traffic requirements. In distributed multicast, the set of sources are to be delivered to a set of destinations. The source exchange requires all ...
Visual behavior recognition is currently a highly active research area. This is due both to the scientific challenge posed by the complexity of the task, and to the growing interest in its applications, such as automated visual surveillance, human-computer ...
New entrants in postal markets usually set up delivery networks by concentrating on urban areas and large business customers. This implies that they operate their network highly centralized - at least in early phases of entrance. ...
Former PhD students, post-docs and junior researchers of the Section de chimie et biochimie now holding positions at different universities and private companies remember the time they spent in Geneva and give an account of how this has set off and influen ...
A number of bacterial virulence factors have been observed to adopt structures similar to that of aerolysin, the principal toxin of Aeromonas species. However, a comprehensive description of architecture and structure of the aerolysin-like superfamily has ...
This paper presents results from static loads tests performed on the new Langensand Bridge built in Switzerland. A systematic study of over 1000 models subjected to three load cases identifies a set of 11 candidate models through static measurements. Predi ...

In response priming, the reaction times to classify an object can be affected by previous exposure to a similar object. Most priming experiments focus on how primes prime a target. In the following set of experiments, we investigate how the interaction bet ...
The k-set-agreement problem consists for a set of n processes to agree on less than k among n possibly different Values, each initially known to only one process. The problem is at the heart of distributed computing and generalizes the celebrated consensus ...
We present a method for retrieving illuminant spectra from a set of images taken with a fixed location camera, such as a surveillance or panoramic one. In these images, there will be significant changes in lighting conditions and scene content, but there w ...
