Learning Transformations To Reduce the Geometric Shift in Object Detection

Mathieu Salzmann, Martin Pierre Engilberge, Vidit Vidit

The performance of modern object detectors drops when the test distribution differs from the training one. Most of the methods that address this focus on object appearance changes caused by, e.g., different illumination conditions, or gaps between syntheti ...

Local excitations in amorphous solids

Wencheng Ji

Amorphous solids are structurally disordered. They are very common and include glasses, colloids, and granular materials, but are far less understood than crystalline solids. Key aspects of these materials are controlled by the presence of excitations in w ...

Identification of Allobaculum mucolyticum as a novel human intestinal mucin degrader

Guido Van Mierlo

The human gut microbiota plays a central role in intestinal health and disease. Yet, many of its bacterial constituents are functionally still largely unexplored. A crucial prerequisite for bacterial survival and proliferation is the creation and/or exploi ...

Synthetic Studies toward Amanita Phalloides Toxins

Philipp Georg Werner Seeberger

Amatoxins are ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified bicyclic octapeptides biosynthesized by the deadly basidiomycete fungus Amanita phalloides. Amongst this group, alpha-amanitin is the most widely known toxin and is currently under inv ...

Complements to Mugge and Friedel's Theory of Twinning

Cyril Cayron

The crystallography of twinning is based on the concepts of simple shear and obliquity introduced by Mugge, Mallard and Friedel at the turn of the last century, with tensor mathematics later developed by Bilby, Bevis and Crocker in the 1960s. We propose a ...

Copper-Catalyzed Oxyalkynylation of C-S Bonds in Thiiranes and Thiethanes with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents

Jérôme Waser, Guillaume Dominique Pisella, Julien Aymeric Borrel

We report the oxyalkynylation of thiiranes and thietanes using ethynylbenziodoxolone reagents (EBXs) to readily access functionalized building blocks bearing an alkynyl, a benzoate, and an iodide group. The reaction proceeds with high atom efficiency most ...

Geometric robustness of deep networks: analysis and improvement

Pascal Frossard, Seyed Mohsen Moosavi Dezfooli, Can Kanbak

Deep convolutional neural networks have been shown to be vulnerable to arbitrary geometric transformations. However, there is no systematic method to measure the invariance properties of deep networks to such transformations. We propose ManiFool as a simpl ...

Oxidation Processes in Water Treatment: Are We on Track?

Urs von Gunten

Chemical oxidants have been applied in water treatment for more than a century, first as disinfectants and later to abate inorganic and organic contaminants. The challenge of oxidative abatement of organic micropollutants is the formation of transformation ...

Analysis of antibiotic multi-resistant bacteria and resistance genes in the effluent of an intensive shrimp farm (Long An, Vietnam)

Pierre Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro

In Vietnam, intensive shrimp farms heavily rely on a wide variety of antibiotics (ABs) to treat animals or prevent disease outbreak. Potential for the emergence of multi-resistant bacteria is high, with the concomitant contamination of adjacent natural aqu ...

Shape Projectors for Landmark-Based Spline Curves

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter

We present a generic method to construct orthogonal projectors for two-dimensional landmark-based parametric spline curves. We construct vector spaces that define a geometric transformation (e.g., affine, similarity, and scaling) that is applied to a refer ...
