Recent advances in statistical learning and convex optimization have inspired many successful practices. Standard theories assume smoothness---bounded gradient, Hessian, etc.---and strong convexity of the loss function. Unfortunately, such conditions may ...
In many fields, and especially in the medical and social sciences and in recommender systems, data are gathered through clinical studies or targeted surveys. Participants are generally reluctant to respond to all questions in a survey or they may lack info ...
In one embodiment, the exoskeleton structure is fastened to the body of the user by a brace and at the foot level. The exoskeleton includes at least one set of three joints corresponding to the hip abduction/adduction, the hip flexion/extension and the kne ...
Objective: Best long-term practice in primary HIV-1 infection (PHI) remains unknown for the individual. A risk-based scoring system associated with surrogate markers of HIV-1 disease progression could be helpful to stratify patients with PHI at highest ris ...
Here we present a low-power magnetic measurement system based on only two Hall-effect elements and a permanent magnet integrated into a smart knee prosthesis to accurately measure knee flexion-extension. The smart prosthesis was tested in a robotic knee si ...

Multiple generalized additive models are a class of statistical regression models wherein parameters of probability distributions incorporate information through additive smooth functions of predictors. The functions are represented by basis function expan ...
In this work we present the smart knee prosthesis designed for in-vivo kinematics measurement and its validation in two knee simulators, i.e. a robotic knee simulator to provide realistic condition, and a manual simulator with more degrees of freedom. The ...
Functional calibration methods were devised to improve repeatability and accuracy of the knee flexion-extension axis, which is used to define the medio-lateral axis of the femur coordinate system in gait analysis. Repeatability of functional calibration me ...
In this paper we present a novel emulator of a building simulator for the simulation-assisted design of high performance buildings. Our emulator is based on Gaussian-Process (GP) regression models. Such non-linear models are better suited than linear model ...

Proposed 50 years ago for studying stability of oscillators, Allan Variance (AV) was accepted by IEEE as a standard for characterizing behavior of sensors. However, the inverse mapping, i.e. the estimation of noise-parameters from Allan Variance is less st ...
