Statistical uncertainty analysis applied to fuel depletion calculations

Rakesh Chawla

In this paper, we present an uncertainty methodology based on a statistical approach, for assessing uncertainties in lattice code predictions of fuel composition changes with burnup due to uncertainties in the fuel geometric configuration, initial enrichme ...

Estimating the Confidence Interval of Expected Performance Curve in Biometric Authentication Using Joint Bootstrap

Samy Bengio, Norman Hoon Thian Poh

Evaluating biometric authentication performance is a complex task because the performance depends on the user set size, composition and the choice of samples. We propose to reduce the performance dependency of these three factors by deriving appropriate co ...

Performance Generalization in Biometric Authentication Using Joint User-Specific and Sample Bootstraps

Samy Bengio, Norman Hoon Thian Poh

Biometric authentication performance is often depicted by a DET curve. We show that this curve is dependent on the choice of samples available, the demographic composition and the number of users specific to a database. We propose a two-step bootstrap proc ...

Assessing toxic impacts on aquatic ecosystems in life cycle assessment (LCA)

Jérôme Payet

In the last decade, several Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methods for assessing impact of products on living resources have been developed. Beyond the quantified assessments of impacts on living systems, it also checked the feasibility of the impact assessme ...

Confidence Evaluation for Risk Prediction

This paper describe an application of a transductive method for risk mapping which allows to compute the confidence interval of an estimation, without any assumption on data distribution, except identity and independancy of inputs. The method is compared t ...

Correcting Jackknife Confidence Intervals

This paper presents a method for constructing confidence intervals using the jackknife. Asymptotic expansions are used to assess and reduce the skewness. It is proved that, although the error in the coverage rate remains of order O(1/n) for two-sided inter ...

Acoustic-Labial Speaker Verification

Dominique Genoud

This paper describes a multimodal approach for speaker verification. The system consists of two classifiers, one using visual features and the other using acoustic features. A lip tracker is used to extract visual information from the speaking face which p ...

The A985G mutation in the medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase gene: high prevalence in the Swiss population resident in Geneva

Romain Zufferey

We have determined the frequency of the A985G mutation in the medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) gene in a cohort of 1142 healthy babies born in two Geneva hospitals. Among babies with at least one Swiss parent, heterozygotes were detected at a fre ...
