We present a new and computationally efficient scheme for classifying signals into a fixed number of known classes. We model classes as subspaces in which the corresponding data is well represented by a dictionary of features. In order to ensure low miscla ...

Compared to daily rainfall data, observed subdaily rainfall times are rare and often very short. For hydrologic modeling, this problem is often addressed by generating synthetic hourly rainfall series, with rainfall generators calibrated on relevant rainfa ...
The influence of firms on the elaboration of climate policy in a democratic system is quite controversial. Firms do not form a solid bloc of opponents to environmental regulation. Some firms even expect to gain from such regulation, either because they off ...
Despite their limited proliferation capacity, regulatory T cells (T(regs)) constitute a population maintained over the entire lifetime of a human organism. The means by which T(regs) sustain a stable pool in vivo are controversial. Using a mathematical mod ...
The aim of this project was to reduce the fuel gas consumption of an existing gas refinery. Using pinch technology, it was found that energy savings up to 20% were possible on the process side. The entire plant was modeled in an energy integration tool in ...
This thesis is motivated from the fundamental decision problem in today's manufacturing industry which could be summarized as one simple question: how is it possible to achieve economic growth by taking advantage of the latest technologies while protecting ...
Today water bodies are suffering from numerous anthropogenic impacts. One of the key players is urban drainage. The directive STORM published by the VSA in 2007 proposes a procedure for an immission oriented strategy for remediation of urban drainage. At t ...
We have analyzed data from a multi-site campaign to observe oscillations in the F5 star Procyon. The data consist of high-precision velocities that we obtained over more than three weeks with 11 telescopes. A new method for adjusting the data weights allow ...
Airlines schedules are built such as to maximize expected profit. Such schedules turn out to be more sensitive to delays and are hence unstable. The trend has thus evolved towards robust schedules, trading off between sensitivity with respect to disruption ...
We present a general approach for modeling synchronous component-based systems. These are systems of synchronous components strongly synchronized by a common action that initiates steps of each component. We propose a general model for synchronous systems. ...
