Standardization can be performed only in a field in which the knowledge of the physical phenomena and of the behavior of the given installation is sufficiently known. The role of the universities is to perform research in order to clarify such these points ...
When deploying a secure system based on speaker verification, the limited amount of training data is usually critical. Indeed, the enrollment procedure must be fast and user-friendly. An incremental training of HMM speaker models, based on a MAP (Maximum A ...
In this thesis the Support Vector Machine (SVM)is applied on classification of high resolution satellite images. Sveral different measures for classification, including texture mesasures, 1st order statistics, and simple contextual information were evaluat ...
The principal subject of this thesis is the study of some Dirichlet problems related to differential inclusions of first and second order. We have studied the two following problems : where E ⊂ R2×2 is a compact isotropic set and where We show some existen ...
The autocorrelations have been previously used as features for 1D or 2D signal classification in a wide range of applications, like texture classification, face detection and recognition, EEG signal classification, and so on. However, in almost all the cas ...
Optimistic atomic broadcast: a pragmatic viewpoint F.Pedone and A.Schiper This paper presents the Optimistic Atomic Broadcast algorithm (OPT-ABcast) which exploits the spontaneous total-order property experienced in local-area networks in order to allow fa ...
A novel application of vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG) is developed to study the molecular properties of the surface of submicron particles in suspension. The Rayleigh-Gans-Debye scattering theory is extended to extract the local molecular resp ...
Applications of thin SixNy membranes may be found in miscellaneous fields such as MEMS and NEMS as well as biotechnology. FIB is an excellent tool in order to realize nano-structures on membranes achieving the ultimate limits and rapid prototyping. ...
How features of an object are bound into a unique percept is one of the puzzling problems in the cognitive and neuro-sciences. In order to investigate the spatio-temporal mechanisms of feature binding, we serially present two verniers with opposite offset ...
A microfluidic device for random fragmentation of DNA or RNA based on the application of a hydrodynamic shear force to these biomolecules is presented. Different from conventional fragmentation instruments, the microchip-based implementation allows molecul ...
