Practical Byzantine-resilient Stochastic Gradient Descent

Algorithms are everywhere. The recipe for the frangipane cake is an algorithm. If all the listed ingredients are available and the cook is sufficiently deft, after a finite number of small, well-defined steps a delicious dessert will exit the oven. Now, wh ...

Serotonergic Modulation of Walking in Drosophila

Pavan P Ramdya, Chin-Lin Chen

To navigate complex environments, animals must generate highly robust, yet flexible, locomotor behaviors. For example, walking speed must be tailored to the needs of a particular environment. Not only must animals choose the correct speed and gait, they mu ...

A Comparison between Two Automatic Assessment Approaches for Programming: An Empirical Study on MOOCs

Pierre Dillenbourg, Patrick Jermann

Computer-graders have been in regular use in the context of MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses). The automatic grading of programs presents an opportunity to assess and provide tailored feedback to large classes, while featuring at the same time a number o ...

Physical activity monitoring based on wearable technology combining inertial and barometric pressure sensors : application to stroke patients

Fabien Massé

Stroke, or cerebral-vascular accident is the leading cause of disabilities in the western world. It primarily affects mobility due to a degradation of principal motor functions such as balance and gait. This reduction of mobility directly impacts the spect ...

Method, system and computer program for determining a reflectance distribution function of an object

Martin Vetterli, Paolo Prandoni, Loïc Arnaud Baboulaz

The invention refers to a method for analysing reflected light of an object. First a light angle distribution for a point of the object is determined. Then a plenoptic projector is controlled to illuminate the point of the object with the determined light ...
