Machine learning is most often cast as an optimization problem. Ideally, one expects a convex objective function to rely on efficient convex optimizers with nice guarantees such as no local optima. Yet, non-convexity is very frequent in practice and it may ...
In this paper we focus on the application of global stochastic optimization methods to extremum estimators. We propose a general stochastic method the master method which includes several stochastic optimization algorithms as a particular case. The propose ...
This work investigates the ability of free induction decay (FID) navigators to provide information on rigid head motion. FID navigators were incorporated in a gradient-echo sequence. In parallel, optical tracking data was acquired and served as the ground ...
In this work, a magnetic measurement system was designed and tested to estimate the Internal-External rotation between the Tibial and Femural parts of a knee prosthesis. To obtain this, the sensors were inserted in polyethylene part while a permanent magne ...
In this paper, we reconstruct signals from underdetermined linear measurements where the componentwise gains of the measurement system are unknown a priori. The reconstruction is performed through an adaptation of the message-passing algorithm called adapt ...
This thesis proposes a novel unified boosting framework. We apply this framework to the several face processing tasks, face detection, facial feature localisation, and pose classification, and use the same boosting algorithm and the same pool of features ( ...
Car-sharing business provides members access to a fleet of shared-use vehicles in a network of locations on a short-term, as-needed basis. It allows individuals to gain the benefits of private vehicle use without the costs and responsibilities of ownership ...

We propose in this talk to address the issue and effect of linearization in the quality of the error estimates in quantities of interest for strongly nonlinear problems. It is well known that the error representation in this case can be decomposed into two ...
