Low Power Sensing and Processing in Wearable Biomedical Devices for Personalized Health Monitoring

Grégoire Casimir Joseph Surrel

Whether it is for personal use or for medical application, wearable sensors are becoming more and more widespread. This is the industry answer to two parallel trends. First, the public show a wish to collect data about their own lifestyle. This rather new ...

Privacy - Preserving Data Exchange and Aggregation in Healthcare

Alevtina Dubovitskaya

Medical data are often scattered among multiple clinics, hospitals, insurance companies, pharmacies, and research institutions that store and process personal healthcare information. The use of information and communication technologies for health (eHealth ...

Perivascular macrophages in health and disease

Michele De Palma

Macrophages are a heterogeneous group of cells that are capable of carrying out distinct functions in different tissues, as well as in different locations within a given tissue. Some of these tissue macrophages lie on, or close to, the outer (abluminal) su ...

Analytic twists of modular forms and applications

Alexandre François Peyrot

We are interested in the study of non-correlation of Fourier coefficients of Maass forms against a wide class of real analytic functions. In particular, the class of functions we are interested in should be thought of as some archimedean analogs of Frobeni ...

Research Data Management (RDM) Strategy

The RDM Strategy template is inspired by SNSF template for NCCR RDM Strategy, but departs from it as it is mostly targeted to single research groups, even if it can be used for a consortium of groups. Divided in 5 parts related to the research data lifecyc ...

A Multiagent System for Dynamic Data Aggregation in Medical Research

Karl Aberer, Michael Ignaz Schumacher, Alevtina Dubovitskaya

The collection of medical data for research purposes is a challenging and long-lasting process. In an effort to accelerate and facilitate this process we propose a new framework for dynamic aggregation of medical data from distributed sources. We use agent ...

Ellipse-Preserving Hermite Interpolation and Subdivision

Michaël Unser

We introduce a family of piecewise-exponential functions that have the Hermite interpolation property. Our design is motivated by the search for an effective scheme for the joint interpolation of points and associated tangents on a curve with the ability t ...

Exponential convergence of the hp version of isogeometric analysis of 1D

Annalisa Buffa

We establish exponential convergence of the hp-version of isogeometric analysis for second order elliptic problems in one spacial dimension. Specifically, we construct, for functions which are piecewise analytic with a finite number of algebraic singularit ...
