Stable parameterization of continuous and piecewise-linear functions

Michaël Unser, Alexis Marie Frederic Goujon, Joaquim Gonçalves Garcia Barreto Campos

Rectified-linear-unit (ReLU) neural networks, which play a prominent role in deep learning, generate continuous and piecewise-linear (CPWL) functions. While they provide a powerful parametric representation, the mapping between the parameter and function s ...

On the effect of linear feedback and parametric pumping on a resonator's frequency stability

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo

Resonant sensors based on micro- and nano-electro mechanical systems (M/NEMS) are ubiquitous in many sensing applications due to their outstanding performance capabilities, which are directly proportional to the quality factor (Q) of the devices. We addres ...

The Distortion of Distributed Voting

Aris Filos Ratsikas

Voting can abstractly model any decision-making scenario and as such it has been extensively studied over the decades. Recently, the related literature has focused on quantifying the impact of utilizing only limited information in the voting process on the ...

3D spacers enhance flow kinetics in resin transfer molding with woven fabrics

Véronique Michaud, Damiano Salvatori, Baris Çaglar

Impregnation time in Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) is directly proportional to resin viscosity and inversely proportional to fabric permeability, limiting the use of high-viscosity resins with conventional reinforcements. In this study, we show how to reduc ...

Chromium bioavailability in aquatic systems impacted by tannery wastewaters. Part 1: Understanding chromium accumulation by indigenous chironomids

The tanning industry uses large quantities of Cr whose contribution to the contaminant burden of aquatic organismsis not yet fully understood. The present study investigated Cr bioaccumulation by indigenous chironomids in a freshwater ecosystem impacted by ...

Selective synthesis of dimethyl ether on eco-friendly K10 montmorillonite clay

Jeremy Luterbacher, Oliver Kröcher, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel, Alimohammad Bahmanpour, Christophe Jean Baranowski

The methanol dehydration reaction was studied over environmentally benign, easily accessible and inexpensive K10 montmorillonite clay used as the catalyst at a temperature range between 200–700 °C. Nearly 100% selectivity towards dimethyl ether (DME) at 80 ...

Strategies for faster impregnation in melt thermoplastic resin transfer molding process

Damiano Salvatori

Continuous fiber thermoplastic composites are potential substitutes of steel in structural automotive components, since they combine fiber strength and rigidity with ductility, potential recyclability and low density of the thermoplastic (TP) matrix. Resin ...

On Decoupling Chemical Reaction Systems

Sriniketh Srinivasan

Chemical reaction systems act as the basis to get the desired products from raw materials. An in-depth understanding of all the underlying rate processes is necessary for monitoring, control and optimization of chemical reaction systems. Traditional repres ...

Organic carbon mass accumulation rate regulates the flux of reduced substances from the sediments of deep lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Robert Vincent Schwefel, Martin Schmid, Bernhard Wehrli

The flux of reduced substances, such as methane and ammonium, from the sediment to the bottom water (Fred) is one of the major factors contributing to the consumption of oxygen in the hypolimnia of lakes and thus crucial for lake oxygen management. This st ...

Calibration-free imaging through a multicore fiber using speckle scanning microscopy

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Nicolino Stasio

The images produced by multicore endoscopes are pixe-lated, and their resolution is limited by the core-to-core spacing. Lenses can be used to improve the resolution, but this reduces the field of view proportionally. Lensless endoscopy through multicore f ...
