Shapes from Pixels

In today's digital world, sampling is at the heart of any signal acquisition device. Imaging devices are ubiquitous examples that capture two-dimensional visual signals and store them as the pixels of discrete images. The main concern is whether and how th ...

Just mobility in the city: the case of non-motorized households in car-dependent cities

Luca Giovanni Pattaroni, Dominic Villeneuve

By the simple fact of not owning a private automobile, some households are already experiencing sustainable mobility. They rely on public transportation networks, cycling and car sharing and tend to travel less than car-owning households. However, current ...

The Impact of Environmental Subsidy on Adoption and R&D Environmental Investment

Marianna Marino, Claudia Pellegrin

This article is an empirical evaluation of the effects of a public environmental subsidy for technology adoption on environmental adoption (direct effect) and R&D investment (indirect effect), in a sample of Dutch non-service private companies over the 200 ...

Big walkers over non-walking drivers: a walking-related metric for evaluating the success of transportation and public health policies

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Derek Pierre Christie

From the point of view of public health and the environment, it can be argued that people who spontaneously walk great distances display a desirable behaviour, whereas those who drive a car without any walking in public space do not. A suggested metric can ...

Random sampling of bandlimited signals on graphs

Pierre Vandergheynst, Rémi Gribonval, Gilles Puy, Nicolas Tremblay

We study the problem of sampling

k

-bandlimited signals on graphs. We propose two sampling strategies that consist in selecting a small subset of nodes at random. The first strategy is non-adaptive, \ie, independent of the graph structure, and its perform ...

Generalized Poisson Summation Formula for Tempered Distributions

Michaël Unser, Quy Ha Nguyen

The Poisson summation formula (PSF), which relates the sampling of an analog signal with the periodization of its Fourier transform, plays a key role in the classical sampling theory. In its current forms, the formula is only applicable to a limited class ...

Looking for “frequent walkers” among the resident population of Switzerland

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Derek Pierre Christie

Walking is the focus of increasing interest. However, the phenomenon of people who spontaneously walk great distances has not been investigated. Here, we analyse quantitative data from the Swiss transport micro-census (MRMT2010), containing information fro ...

Information production and social value of open data: a conceptual modelling framework for public policy

Gianluigi Viscusi

The paper aims to investigate the role of conceptual modelling for policy making. In particular, it is argued that the use conceptual schemas may provide an effective understanding of the information asset of Public Administration and its capacity to satis ...

An article reporting statistical evidence for epigenetic transfer of learned behavior has important implications, if true. With random sampling, real effects do not always result in rejection of the null hypothesis, but the reported experiments were unifor ...

Development of a low-cost wireless controller for flexible sampling strategies based on real-time flow monitoring

Andrea Rinaldo, Pierre Claude Jean Queloz, Jonathan Besuchet

Even if models are able to predict more and more accurately pollutant discharge in streams, surface water sampling remains a very common practice to monitor substance concentrations and loads in streams and to calibrate models. However, as this method is t ...
