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.

From Data Quality to Big Data Quality

Gianluigi Viscusi

This article investigates the evolution of data quality issues from traditional structured data managed in relational databases to Big Data. In particular, the paper examines the nature of the relationship between Data Quality and several research coordina ...

WASP: Scalable Bayes via barycenters of subset posteriors

Volkan Cevher, Quoc Tran Dinh

The promise of Bayesian methods for big data sets has not fully been realized due to the lack of scalable computational algorithms. For massive data, it is necessary to store and process subsets on different machines in a distributed manner. We propose a s ...

MR Image Reconstruction from Generalized Projections

Daniel Gallichan

Purpose: Currently, the time required for image reconstruction is prohibitively long if data are acquired using multidimensional imaging trajectories that make use of multichannel systems equipped with nonlinear gradients. Methods are presented that reduce ...

Breakdown of continuum elasticity in amorphous solids

Matthieu Wyart, Eric DeGiuli

We show numerically that the response of simple amorphous solids (elastic networks and particle packings) to a local force dipole is characterized by a lengthscale c that diverges as unjamming is approached as c ∼ (z - 2d)-1/2, where z ≥ 2d is the mean coo ...

Data-driven healthcare: from patterns to actions

Matthias Grossglauser

The era of big data opens up new opportunities in personalised medicine, preventive care, chronic disease management and in telemonitoring and managing of patients with implanted devices. The rich data accumulating within online services and internet compa ...

Towards a global participatory platform Democratising open data, complexity science and collective intelligence

Karl Aberer

The FuturICT project seeks to use the power of big data, analytic models grounded in complexity science, and the collective intelligence they yield for societal benefit. Accordingly, this paper argues that these new tools should not remain the preserve of ...

Analysis of Impact of an Annual Robotics Festival

Francesco Mondada, Julia Fink, Fanny Riedo, Mariza Freire

For four years a robotics festival has taken place at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), in Switzerland. As the number of visitors has rapidly grown from a few thousands to a dozen thousands, it gives an opportunity to investigate who is ...

Challenges and Opportunities in Self-Managing Scientific Databases

Anastasia Ailamaki, Miguel Sérgio De Oliveira Branco, Thomas Heinis, Ioannis Alagiannis, Farhan Tauheed

Advances in observation instruments and abundance of computational power for simulations encourage scientists to gather and produce unprecedented amounts of increasingly complex data. Organizing data automatically to enable efficient and unobstructed acces ...

Graphical display for annual climate-based daylight simulation

Marilyne Andersen, Magali Bodart

Due to daylight variability, a design cannot be thoroughly assessed using single-moment simulations, which is why we need dynamic performance metrics like Daylight Autonomy and Useful Daylight Illuminance. Going one step further, the annual variation in pe ...

Method for Automatic Quality Control of Data in In-Vivo Images

A method for quality control assessment in single time-point in-vivo imaging data related to imaging of objects, includes acquiring an in-vivo image of the object with imaging apparatus, defining a background image corresponding to an imaged air of the in- ...
