Towards a secure and trustworthy imaging with non-fungible tokens

Touradj Ebrahimi, Evgeniy Upenik, Davi Nachtigall Lazzarotto

Non fungible tokens (NFTs) are used to define the ownership of digital assets. More recently, there has been a surge of platforms to auction digital art as well as other digital assets in form of image, video, and audio content of all sorts. Although NFTs ...

Computational methods for live heart imaging with speed-constrained microscopes

Olivia Mariani

Imaging methods to capture the beating and developing heart inside embryonic animal models such as the zebrafish are a key component for the study of fundamental biological processes such as cardiac birth defects or tissue regeneration. However, live heart ...

Three-dimensional electrodes for dielectrophoretic applications

Kevin Keim

This thesis reports the use of metal-coated three-dimensional SU-8 electrodes for dielectrophoretic bio sensing and particle manipulation applications. Placing free standing three-dimensional electrodes in microfluidic channels, electric fields can be appl ...

No time for drifting: Comparing performance and applicability of signal detrending algorithms for real-time fMRI

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Frank Scharnowski, Yury Koush, Rotem Roza Kopel

As a consequence of recent technological advances in the field of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), results can now be made available in real-time. This allows for novel applications such as online quality assurance of the acquisition, intra-op ...

Efficient Learning from Comparisons

Lucas Maystre

Humans are comparison machines: comparing and choosing an item among a set of alternatives (such as objects or concepts) is arguably one of the most natural ways for us to express our preferences and opinions. In many applications, the analysis of data con ...

Automated microfluidic sorting of mammalian cells labeled with magnetic microparticles for those that efficiently express and secrete a protein of interest

Amar Rida, Nicolas Mermod, Etienne Lançon, Niamh Harraghy

We developed a method for the fast sorting and selection of mammalian cells expressing and secreting a protein at high levels. This procedure relies on cell capture using an automated microfluidic device handling antibody-coupled magnetic microparticles an ...

Just Sort It! A Simple and Effective Approach to Active Preference Learning

Matthias Grossglauser, Lucas Maystre

We address the problem of learning a ranking by using adaptively chosen pairwise comparisons. Our goal is to recover the ranking accurately but to sample the comparisons sparingly. If all comparison outcomes are consistent with the ranking, the optimal sol ...

An Evaluation of Diversification Techniques

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Thành Tâm Nguyên

Diversification is a method of improving user satisfaction by increasing the variety of information shown to user. Due to the lack of a precise definition of information variety, many diversification techniques have been proposed. These techniques, however ...

Approximation algorithms for regret minimization in vehicle routing problems

Adrian Aloysius Bock

In this thesis, we present new approximation algorithms as well as hardness of approximation results for NP-hard vehicle routing problems related to public transportation. We consider two different problem classes that also occur frequently in areas such a ...

Comparison between reduced basis and stochastic collocation methods for elliptic problems

Alfio Quarteroni, Gianluigi Rozza, Peng Chen

The stochastic collocation method has recently been applied to stochastic problems that can be transformed into parametric systems. Meanwhile, the reduced basis method, primarily developed for solving parametric systems, has been recently used to deal with ...
