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.

Generation of elastic geodesic gridshells with anisotropic cross sections

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Nicolas Robin Montagne, Olivier Baverel

Geodesic gridshells are shell structures made of continuous elements following geodesic lines. Their properties ease the use of beams with anisotropic cross-sections by avoiding bending about their strong axis. However, such bending may arise when flatteni ...

Reality-assisted evolution of soft robots through large-scale physical experimentation: a review

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes, Simon Lukas Hauser

We introduce the framework of reality-assisted evolution to summarize a growing trend towards combining model-based and model-free approaches to improve the design of physically embodied soft robots. In silico, data-driven models build, adapt, and improve ...

Hierarchical Control of Islanded Microgrids with Flexible Structures

Pulkit Nahata

The primary objective of this doctoral thesis is the design and development of hierarchical control schemes for the overall operation and control of Islanded mGs (ImGs) with flexible structuresâor, with no reference topologies. The control methodologies ...

Facilitators First: Building a Tool With Facilitators to Foster a More Collaborative Makerspace Community Through Movement Traces

Bertrand Roland Schneider, Léonore Valentine Guillain

Research indicates that makerspaces equip students with the practical skills needed to build their own projects and thrive in the twenty-first-century workforce. While the appeal of makerspaces lies in their spirit of tinkering and community-driven ethos, ...

Designing Horizontality

Paola Viganò, Tommaso Pietropolli

This paper is divided into three parts. The first introduces a trilogy of concepts and figures of the discourse. The concept of isotropy, as opposed to hierarchy, evokes the same conditions in all directions. The concept of porosity tackles the fluidity an ...

Advances in Bias-aware Recommendation on the Web

Mirko Marras

The goal of this tutorial is to provide the WSDM community with recent advances on the assessment and mitigation of data and algorithmic bias in recommender systems. We first introduce conceptual foundations, by presenting the state of the art and describi ...

Computational Analysis and Design of Structurally Stable Assemblies with Rigid Parts

An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Assemblies make it possible to fabricate large and complex objects with several small and simple parts. Such parts can be assembled and disassemble ...

Algebraic and Boolean Optimization Methods for AQFP Superconducting Circuits

Giovanni De Micheli, Eleonora Testa, Heinz Riener, Siang-Yun Lee

Adiabatic quantum-flux-parametron (AQFP) circuits are a family of superconducting electronic (SCE) circuits that have recently gained growing interest due to their low-energy consumption, and may serve as alternative technology to overcome the down-scalin ...

Design of Hesitation Gestures for Nonverbal Human-Robot Negotiation of Conflicts

Aude Billard, A Jung Moon

When the question of who should get access to a communal resource first is uncertain, people often negotiate via nonverbal communication to resolve the conflict. What should a robot be programmed to do when such conflicts arise in Human-Robot Interaction? ...

Catch Me If You Can Designing a Disobedient Object to Protest Against GSM Surveillance

Félicien Michel Marie Goguey

In this article, I discuss the process of designing an object to protest against a specific surveillance device: the IMSI catcher, a controversial object used to monitor GSM networks. Being widely used in protests, I develop a tactical approach based on ob ...
