String matching is the problem of deciding whether a given n-bit string contains a given k-bit pattern. We study the complexity of this problem in three settings. - Communication complexity. For small k, we provide near-optimal upper and lower bounds on th ...

Reciprocity guarantees that in most media, sound transmission is symmetric between two points of space when the location of the source and receiver are interchanged. This fundamental law can be broken in non-linear media, often at the cost of detrimental i ...
Amatoxins are ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified bicyclic octapeptides biosynthesized by the deadly basidiomycete fungus Amanita phalloides. Amongst this group, alpha-amanitin is the most widely known toxin and is currently under inv ...
The string method is a general and flexible strategy to compute the most probable transition path for an activated process (rare event). We apply here the atomistic string method in the density field to the Cassie-Wenzel transition, a central problem in th ...
Self-similar structures occur naturally and have been employed to engineer exotic physical properties. We show that acoustic modes of a fractal-like system of tensioned strings can display increased mechanical quality factors due to the enhancement of diss ...
Moving towards an increased understanding of the dynamic processes in the edge of
tokamak plasmas requires continuous innovation in diagnostic capabilities, pushing the
envelope in both spatial and temporal dimenstions. Plasma density and rotation, and
the ...
We prove that the quantifier-free fragment of the theory of character strings with regular language membership constraints and linear integer constraints over string lengths is decidable. We do that by describing a sound, complete and terminating tableaux ...
On most musical instruments, especially on the guitar, it is possible to play the same note or chord in multiple ways. In this project, we develop a simple audio-based method to estimate the fingering of a note played on an acoustic guitar from a recording ...
A fundamental challenge with solar energy is improving the reliability, and increasing the lifetime, of photovoltaic modules. Typically, photovoltaic module manufacturers guarantee 80% of the nominal power of their modules for 25 years, but this type of gu ...
Synopsis: This project is about using musical recordings of string instruments to determine on which strings notes have been played. It includes the study of the spectral content of the recordings and the development of a robust classifica ...
