Deep Models and Shortwave Infrared Information to Detect Face Presentation Attacks

Sébastien Marcel, Guillaume Heusch, Zohreh Mostaani

This paper addresses the problem of face presentation attack detection using different image modalities. In particular, the usage of short wave infrared (SWIR) imaging is considered. Face presentation attack detection is performed using recent models based ...

A review of assessment methods for the urban environment and its energy sustainability to guarantee climate adaptation of future cities

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo, Amarasinghage Tharindu Dasun Perera, Vahid Moussavi Nik, Emanuele Naboni

The current climate change is calling for a drastic reduction of energy demand as well as of greenhouse gases. Besides this, cities also need to adapt to face the challenges related to climate change. Cities, with their complex urban texture and fabric, ca ...

Design guidance from a Data-Driven LCA-Based Design method and tool prototype

Marilyne Andersen, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme

As of 2020, every new building in the European Union will have to reach the nearly Zero Energy Building (nZEB) performance. However, building nZEB will not be sufficient to reach carbon neutrality in 2050 as required by the last IPCC report: indeed, even n ...

Urban energy system planning: Overview and main challenges

Nils Christian Schüler, Sébastien Cajot

By looking at opportunities beyond the single building scale, urban planners can significantly contribute to shape energy-efficient and low-carbon cities. However, the complexity involved in such a broad task and the many trade-offs with other sectors impe ...

Modeling the effects of future urban planning scenarios on the Urban Heat Island in a complex region

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Sylvain Labedens

Because of the global warming, urban planning strategies must be investigated to reduce the building energy consumption and increase the thermal comfort in cities. In the framework of Energy Strategy 2050 of Switzerland, this research aim to highlight the ...

Rehabilitación energética de edificios residenciales en España y objetivo europeo 2050

Sergi Aguacil Moreno

One of the top priorities of European countries is to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the built environment. To reach this goal, urban renewal processes are seen as a core strategy towards a sustainable built fabric, given t ...

Multi-scale modelling to evaluate building energy consumption at the neighbourhood scale

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo

A new methodology is proposed to couple a meteorological model with a building energy use model. The aim of such a coupling is to improve the boundary conditions of both models with no significant increase in computational time. In the present case, the Ca ...

Localized meteorological variables influence at the early design stage

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo, Emanuele Naboni

A measurement campaign was set up in Lausanne. The objective of this study is to define the importance of using local meteorological variables in the design of urban spaces and in the evaluation of building energy use. Urban simulation tools typically use ...
