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.

A Method for Record Linkage with Sparse Historical Data

Maud Ehrmann, Yannick Rochat, Giovanni Colavizza

Massive digitization of archival material, coupled with automatic document processing techniques and data visualisation tools offers great opportunities for reconstructing and exploring the past. Unprecedented wealth of historical data (e.g. names of perso ...

Virtual reading of a large ancient handwritten science book

Giorgio Margaritondo, Frédéric Kaplan, Alessandra Patera, Fauzia Albertin, Marco Stampanoni

We present a fundamental development step of a new technique to read and digitize ancient handwritten documents. Chemical analysis by x-ray fluorescence and x-ray tomography enabled us to decipher words and drawings from inside a closed, 200-pages 18th cen ...

Venice Time Machine : Recreating the density of the past

Frédéric Kaplan, Isabella Di Lenardo

This article discusses the methodology used in the Venice Time Machine project (http://vtm.epfl.ch) to reconstruct a historical geographical information system covering the social and urban evolution of Venice over a period of 1,000 years. Given the time s ...

Seam Carving for Text Line Extraction on Color and Grayscale Historical Manuscripts

Sabine Süsstrunk, Nikolaos Arvanitopoulos Darginis

We propose a novel algorithm for automatic text line extraction on color and grayscale manuscript pages without prior binarization. Our algorithm is based on seam carving to compute separating seams between text lines. Seam carving is likely to produce ...

Incentives for Truthful Information Elicitation of Continuous Signals

Boi Faltings, Goran Radanovic

We consider settings where a collective intelligence is formed by aggregating information contributed from many independent agents, such as product reviews, community sensing, or opinion polls. We propose a novel mechanism that elicits both private signals ...

The Montreux Jazz Festival archives covers almost a half-century of live jazz, rock and pop music, gathering international first-class musicians within a single catalogue. In the frame of the digitization and valorisation of the whole archives by EPFL rese ...

2013

We present noise and distortion measurements of multicast copies generated in a self-seeded parametric mixer. Linear mixer operation is achieved by distortion-free Brillouin suppression resulting in high signal-to-noise and distortion-ratio (SINAD) wavelen ...

We present the design of a wide dynamic-range CMOS A/D interface circuit for ionization chambers, able to digitize input charge of both polarities over six decades, to operate in a radioactive environment, and foreseen working without calibration. The circ ...
