A Noise-Resistant Mixed-Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for the Automatic Design of Robotic Controllers

Alcherio Martinoli, Cyrill Silvan Baumann

The automatic design of well-performing robotic controllers is still an unsolved problem due to the inherently large parameter space and noisy, often hard-to-define performance metrics, especially when sequential tasks need to be accomplished. Distal contr ...

In Search of Lost Bandwidth: Extensive Reordering of DRAM Accesses on FPGA

Paolo Ienne, Mikhail Asiatici, Gabor Andras Csordas

For efficient acceleration on FPGA, it is essential for external memory to match the throughput of the processing pipelines. However, the usable DRAM bandwidth decreases significantly if the access pattern causes frequent row conflicts. Memory controllers ...

Exploring the Extent in the Visual Field of the Honeycomb and Extinction Illusions

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud

There are situations in which what is perceived in central vision is different to what is perceived in the periphery, even though the stimulus display is uniform. Here, we studied two cases, known as the Extinction illusion and the Honeycomb illusion, invo ...

Databases and Hardware: The Beginning and Sequel of a Beautiful Friendship

Anastasia Ailamaki

Fast query and transaction processing is the goal of 40 years of database research and the reason of existence for many new database system architectures. In data management, system performance means acceptable response time and throughput on critical-path ...

Comparison of neuronal spike exchange methods on a Blue Gene/P supercomputer

Michael Lee Hines, Sameer Kumar

For neural network simulations on parallel machines, Interprocessor spike communication can be a significant portion of the total simulation time. The performance of several spike exchange methods using a Blue Gene/P (BG/P) supercomputer has been tested wi ...

Working memory load improves early stages of independent visual processing

Roberto Martuzzi

Increasing evidence suggests that working memory and perceptual processes are dynamically interrelated due to modulating activity in overlapping brain networks. However, the direct influence of working memory on the spatio-temporal brain dynamics of behavi ...
