Fixed-wing drones for communication networks

Maja Varga

In the last decade, drones became frequently used to provide eye-in-the-sky overview in the outdoor environment. Their main advantage compared to the other types of robots is that they can fly above obstacles and rough terrains and they can quickly cover l ...

Information theoretic clustering for unsupervised domain-adaptation

Petr Motlicek, Subhadeep Dey

The aim of the domain-adaptation task for speaker verification is to exploit unlabelled target domain data by using the labelled source domain data effectively. The i-vector based Probabilistic Linear Dis- criminant Analysis (PLDA) framework approaches thi ...

In a demanding task, three-handed manipulation is preferred to two-handed manipulation

Hannes Bleuler, Mohamed Bouri, Etienne Burdet, Elahe Abdi

Equipped with a third hand under their direct control, surgeons may be able to perform certain surgical interventions alone; this would reduce the need for a human assistant and related coordination difficulties. However, does human performance improve wit ...

Space lower bounds for low-stretch greedy embeddings

Christos Kalaitzis

Greedy (geometric) routing is an important paradigm for routing in communication networks. It uses an embedding of the nodes of a network into points of a space (e.g., R-d) equipped with a distance function (e.g., the Euclidean distance l(2)) and uses as a ...

Moduli spaces of toric manifolds

Tudor Ratiu

We construct a distance on the moduli space of symplectic toric manifolds of dimension four. Then we study some basic topological properties of this space, in particular, path-connectedness, compactness, and completeness. The construction of the distance i ...

Constructing reparameterization invariant metrics on spaces of plane curves

Martins Bruveris, Martin Bauer

Metrics on shape spaces are used to describe deformations that take one shape to another, and to define a distance between shapes. We study a family of metrics on the space of curves, which includes several recently proposed metrics, for which the metrics ...

A real-time comparison between direct control, sequential pattern recognition control and simultaneous pattern recognition control using a Fitts' law style assessment procedure

Sophie Marie Marthe Wurth

Background: Pattern recognition (PR) based strategies for the control of myoelectric upper limb prostheses are generally evaluated through offline classification accuracy, which is an admittedly useful metric, but insufficient to discuss functional perform ...

FH HES Optimization of Chemical Reactor Feed by Simulations Based on a Kinetic Approach

Thierry Meyer, Francis Stoessel, Charles Ibrahim Guinand

Chemical incidents are typically caused by loss of control, resulting in runaway reactions or process deviations in different stages of the production. In the case of fed-batch reactors, the problem generally encountered is the accumulation of heat. This i ...

Geometric Variational Models for Inverse Problems in Imaging

Virginia Estellers Casas

This dissertation develops geometric variational models for different inverse problems in imaging that are ill-posed, designing at the same time efficient numerical algorithms to compute their solutions. Variational methods solve inverse problems by the fo ...

Analysis of Descent-Based Image Registration

Pascal Frossard, Elif Vural

We present a performance analysis for image registration with gradient descent. We consider a typical multiscale registration setting where the global 2-D translation between a pair of images is estimated by smoothing the images and minimizing the distance ...
