Human perceptions of daylight composition in architecture: a preliminary study to compare quantitative contrast measures with subjective user assessments in HDR renderings

Marilyne Andersen, Siobhan Francois Rockcastle

Humans perceive daylight as a rich and dynamic luminous composition and yet existing performance metrics most often evaluate natural illumination for its ability to adequately illuminate a two-dimensional task surface while avoiding glare-based visual disc ...

Existence and Uniqueness of Maximal Regular Flows for Non-smooth Vector Fields

Maria Colombo

In this paper we provide a complete analogy between the Cauchy-Lipschitz and the DiPerna-Lions theories for ODE's, by developing a local version of the DiPerna-Lions theory. More precisely, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a maximal regular flow fo ...

Air-ground Matching: Appearance-based GPS-denied Urban Localization of Micro Aerial Vehicles

Davide Scaramuzza

In this paper, we address the problem of globally localizing and tracking the pose of a camera-equipped micro aerial vehicle (MAV) flying in urban streets at low altitudes without GPS. An image-based global positioning system is introduced to localize the ...

Estimating MFDs in simple networks with route choice

Nikolaos Geroliminis

The concept of the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) is elegant and attractive because it provides a global view of traffic behavior and performance at a network level. However, recent research shows that the MFD shape can be influenced by local traffi ...

Integration of BIP into Connectivity Factory: Implementation

Simon Bliudze, Anastasia Mavridou, Radoslaw Szymanek, Alina Zolotukhina

Coordinating component behaviour and, in particular, concurrent access to resources is among the key difficulties of building large concurrent systems. To address this, developers must be able to manipulate high-level concepts, such as Finite State Machine ...
