Temporal aspects of feature integration in vision

To fully comprehend visual perception, we need to necessarily understand its temporal dimension. Our visual environment is highly dynamic, requiring the processing and integration of temporal signals in order to make sense of it. Many processes, such as th ...

A temporal geography of encounters

João Vitor Meirelles de Miranda

Integrating social and spatial networks will be critical to new approaches to cities as systems of interaction. In this paper, we focus on the spatial and temporal conditions of encounters as a key condition for the formation of social networks. Drawing on ...

THE FABRIC OF ENCOUNTER: Integration and segregation in the spatiotemporal structure of social networks

João Vitor Meirelles de Miranda

Integrating social and spatial networks will be critical to new approaches to cities as material systems of interaction. In this paper, we propose a way of doing so by focusing on the spatial and temporal conditions of formation of social networks – namely ...

Frequency-domain technique to measure the inertial response of forward stimulated Brillouin scattering for acoustic impedance sensing

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Desmond Chow Ming Chia

A frequency-domain method is proposed to measure the inertial response of forward stimulated Brillouin scattering, so that the acoustic impedance of a liquid medium outside an uncoated 30 m standard single-mode fibre can be sensed. The proposed technique o ...

Geomedicine: opportunities of using spatial information to move toward more precision in public health - spatial approaches and clusters: an introduction for clinicians

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous

In this presentation we introduce basic knowledge about the use of located health data to detect clusters of disease prevalence. Most often, geographic maps are produced to represent health data. Medical information is transmitted through thematic chorop ...

Tracking residence times in hydrological systems: forward and backward formulations

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin, Gianluca Botter

In recent years, several papers contributed to the development and clarification of key theoretical issues underlying the formulation of transport by travel time distributions in catchments. Such a formulation provides a robust description of the temporal ...

Space-time modelling of extreme events

Anthony Christopher Davison, Raphaël Huser

Max-stable processes are the natural analogues of the generalized extreme-value distribution when modelling extreme events in space and time. Under suitable conditions, these processes are asymptotically justified models for maxima of independent replicati ...

A fine scale analysis of socio-economic and landscape variables for the assessment of health status in Geneva

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous, Joël Chételat, Abram Pointet

Significant differences in health status between inhabitants of different commune types of the Geneva area have recently been established in a study relying on a large health database managed by the Unit of Population Epidemiology of the Hôpitaux Universit ...

Stochastic space-time disaggregation of rainfall into DSD fields

Alexis Berne, Marc Schleiss

A stochastic method to disaggregate rainfall fields into DSD fields is proposed. It is based on a previously presented DSD simulator that has been modified in order to take into account imposed mean values provided at the coarser scale. The integral quanti ...

L'habitant et la cohabitation dans les modèles de l'espace habité

André Ourednik

The notion of habiter (inhabiting in both a transitive and intransitive sense), developed in the course of the second half of the 20th century, made it possible to place the human individual in the center of spatial theories. Of phenomenological inspiratio ...
