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.
Variational methods have proved popular and effective for inference and learning in intractable graphical models. An attractive feature of the approaches based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence is a rigorous lower bound on the normalization constants in u ...
Shift multiplexing is a holographic recording method that uses a spherical reference wave. We extend the principle to a thin slab of holographic material that acts as a waveguide. Total internal reflection folds the reference spherical beam in one dimensio ...
A method and a microscopy imaging apparatus for generating an optically sectioned image of a specimen are provided. The method comprises the steps of:illuminating the specimen with a modulating, spatially periodic illumination pattern; imaging said specime ...
The present invention provides methods and apparatus for locally patterning surfaces. In one such method, an oxidizable thioether is adsorbed onto a conductive surface 10. The surface is then contacted with a fluid medium M. A conducting stamp 12 is then b ...
Given two video sequences, a composite video sequence can be generated which includes visual elements from each of the given sequences, suitably synchronized and represented in a chosen focal plane. For example, given two video sequences with each showing ...
We present a new contour segmentation method for femoral head detection in CT images. The principal idea underlying our approach is to represent the contour using active rays. Each ray has internal energy (continuity and smoothness constraints), as well as ...
Catalysts immobilised in ionic liquids have been analysed using electrospray ionisation ion trap mass spectrometry, which allows identification of the catalyst without contamination from the ionic liquid; additionally, a new ionic liquid containing the Mon ...
Endosseous implant to be applied to a human or animal bone, said implant having a smooth or rough surface texture and wherein said surface has been treated with at least one organic compound carrying at least one phosphonic acid group or a salt thereof and ...

A review with 348 refs. In 1985, Car and Parrinello published a seminal article on an "Unified approach for mol. dynamics and d. functional theory". This paper established a basis for parameter-free mol. dynamics simulations in which all the interactions a ...
The aim of the proposed paper is to extend the well known complex torque coefficient method for synchronous machine rotor oscillations, to auxiliary devices (voltage regulators, power system stabilizers (PSS), ...) in electrical networks. To illustrate the ...
