Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Cumulant microscopy

Theo Lasser, Claudio Dellagiacoma, Stefan Geissbuehler

The invention describes a method and a microscopy system for imaging and analysing stochastically and independently blinking point-like emitters. A multiple-order cumulants analysis in conjunction with an established blinking model enables the extraction o ...

Aerosol hygroscopicity and CCN activation kinetics in a boreal forest environment during the 2007 EUCAARI campaign

Athanasios Nenes

Measurements of size-resolved cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) concentrations, subsaturated hygroscopic growth, size distribution, and chemical composition were collected from March through May, 2007, in the remote Boreal forests of Hyytiälä, Finland, as pa ...

STDP in adaptive neurons gives close-to-optimal information transmission

Wulfram Gerstner, Jean-Pascal Théodor Pfister, Guillaume Hennequin

Spike-frequency adaptation is known to enhance the transmission of information in sensory spiking neurons by rescaling the dynamic range for input processing, matching it to the temporal statistics of the sensory stimulus. Achieving maximal information tra ...

SURE-LET for Orthonormal Wavelet-Domain Video Denoising

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu, Florian Luisier

We propose an efficient orthonormal wavelet-domain video denoising algorithm based on an appropriate integration of motion compensation into an adapted version of our recently devised Stein's unbiased risk estimator-linear expansion of thresholds (SURE-LET ...

On Spatially Explicit Models of Cholera Epidemics

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Marino Gatto

We generalize a recently proposed model for cholera epidemics that accounts for local communities of susceptibles and infectives in a spatially explicit arrangement of nodes linked by networks having different topologies. The vehicle of infection (Vibrio c ...

On Large Deviation Regimes For Random Media Models

Thomas Mountford, Damien Gauthier, Michael Cranston

The focus of this article is on the different behavior of large deviations of random subadditive functionals above the mean versus large deviations below the mean in two random media models. We consider the point-to-point first passage percolation time a(n ...

The spectrum of heavy tailed random matrices

Let X-N be an N x N random symmetric matrix with independent equidistributed entries. If the law P of the entries has a finite second moment, it was shown by Wigner [14] that the empirical distribution of the eigenvalues of X-N , once renormalized by root ...

Non-Gaussianity analysis on local morphological measures of WMAP data

Pierre Vandergheynst, Yves Wiaux

The decomposition of a signal on the sphere with the steerable wavelet constructed from the second Gaussian derivative gives access to the orientation, signed-intensity and elongation of the signal’s local features. In the present work, the non-Gaussianity ...

Minimum Mutual Information Beamforming for Simultaneous Active Speakers

In this work, we consider an acoustic beamforming application where two speakers are simultaneously active. We construct one subband-domain beamformer in \emph{generalized sidelobe canceller} (GSC) configuration for each source. In contrast to normal pract ...
