The development of efficient routes to multi gram quantities of chiral synthons is a key issue in total synthesis of natural products and analogues. The conformationally defined and rigid 8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one template appears as an appealing s ...
Without a deformation model, monocular 3D shape recovery of deformable surfaces is severly under-constrained. Even when the image information is rich enough, prior knowledge of the feasible deformations is required to overcome the ambiguities. This is furt ...
We present a structural attack against the Sidelnikov cryptosystem. The attack creats a private key from a give public key. Its running time is subexponential and it is effective if the parameters of the Reed-Muller code allow for efficient sampling of min ...
The start-up team plays a key role in venture capitalists' evaluations of venture proposals. Our findings go beyond existing research, first by providing a detailed exploration of VCs' team evaluation criteria, and second by investigating the moderator var ...
This paper presents a case study of real-time traffic state estimation. The adopted general approach to the design of universal traffic state estimators for freeway stretches is based on stochastic macroscopic traffic flow modeling and extended Kalman filt ...
For recurrent service providers (fast-food, entertainment, medical care,...), retaining loyal customers is obviously a key issue. The customers' loyalty essentially depends on their service satisfaction defined via an ad-hoc utility function. Among several ...
The epitaxial growth of quantum rods (QRs) on GaAs was investigated. It was found that GaAs thickness in the GaAs/InAs superlattice used for QR formation plays a key role in improving the QR structural properties. Increasing the GaAs thickness results in b ...
In this paper, we present an analytic-iterative Inverse Kinematics (IK) method, called Sequential lK (SIK), that reconstructs 3D human full-body movements in real time. The input data for the reconstruction is the least possible (i.e., the positions of wri ...
“Santiago de Chile is implementing a new urban transport system that may give important incentives for other world cities”. This World Bank citation refers to the sophisticated public urban transport system called Transantiago started in February 2007. It ...
Autofluorescence (AF) bronchoscopy is a useful tool for early cancer detection. However, the mechanisms involved in this diagnosis procedure are poorly understood. We present a clinical autofluorescence imaging study to assess the depth of the principal co ...
