Weight Erosion: An Update Aggregation Scheme for Personalized Collaborative Machine Learning
Martin Jaggi, Mary-Anne Hartley, Sai Praneeth Reddy Karimireddy, Felix Hans Michel Grimberg
Background. In medicine and other applications, the copying and sharing of data is impractical for a range of well-considered reasons. With federated learning (FL) techniques, machine learning models can be trained on data spread across several locations w ...
Springer, Cham2020Hydro-morphological processes through permeable sediment traps at mountain rivers
Sediment traps are used for the protection of urban settlements at rivers in mountainous regions. These structures aim at the retention of sediment in the case of hazardous floods, but existing sediment traps tend to retain sediment also when the discharge ...
EPFL2017Assessing the Hydro-Morphodynamic Response of a Beach Protected by Detached, Impermeable, Submerged Breakwaters: A Numerical Approach
Coastal areas host a large fraction of the world's population and are exposed to natural extreme events, which are a serious threat to human life, as well as to economies. For this reason, sea storms are increasingly the object of studies, and the design o ...
Coastal Education & Research Foundation2016Gas mixing enhancement in minichannels using a rotationally oscillatory circular cylinder
Oscillating structures and actuators can induce flow kinematics that enhances mixing. This approach is specifically effective for mixing enhancement in meso-scale channels, where the flow kinematics can be actively controlled using micro-electro-mechanical ...
2012Etude expérimentale de refuges à poissons aménagés dans les berges de rivières soumises aux éclusées hydroélectriques
Downstream of hydroelectric storage dams, the rivers suffer from rapid, frequent and intense flow variations linked to the power production constraints. Subjected to this hydropeaking phenomenon, the fish population suffers from a known decline. In the res ...
EPFL2011Effect of raindrop splash and transversal width on soil erosion: Laboratory flume experiments and analysis with the Hairsine-Rose model
David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli, Seifeddine Jomaa
The parameter consistency of the one-dimensional Hairsine-Rose (H-R) erosion model under conditions of significant rainfall splash was examined. To account for the splash characteristic length scale and its interaction with the transverse erosion width, ex ...
2010One-Dimensional Hairsine-Rose Erosion Model: Parameter Consistency for Soil Erosion in the Presence of Rainfall Splash
David Andrew Barry, Seifeddine Jomaa
Process-based erosion modelling has proven to be an efficient tool for description and prediction of soil erosion and sediment transport. The one-dimensional Hairsine-Rose (HR) erosion model, which describes the time variation of suspended sediment concent ...
2009Efficiency of Brushwood fences in shore protection against wind-wave induced erosion
Shore protection in confined water bodies is of major importance in Switzerland where many lakes suffer severe shore erosion. It occurs mainly in shallow zones due to several reasons such as: the fluctuations of the water level , the wind-wave impact durin ...
