From scattered sources to comprehensive technology landscape : A recommendation-based retrieval approach

Karl Aberer, Chi Thang Duong

Mapping the technology landscape is crucial for market actors to take informed investment decisions. However, given the large amount of data on the Web and its subsequent information overload, manually retrieving information is a seemingly ineffective and ...

Latency Interfaces for Systems Code

Rishabh Ramesh Iyer

This thesis demonstrates that it is feasible for systems code to expose a latency interface that describes its latency and related side effects for all inputs, just like the code's semantic interface describes its functionality and related side effects. S ...

Efficient and Effective Multi-Modal Queries Through Heterogeneous Network Embedding

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Thành Tâm Nguyên, Chi Thang Duong, Thanh Trung Huynh

The heterogeneity of today's Web sources requires information retrieval (IR) systems to handle multi-modal queries. Such queries define a user's information needs by different data modalities, such as keywords, hashtags, user profiles, and other media. Rec ...

Perspectives in machine learning for wildlife conservation

Devis Tuia, Alexander Mathis, Mackenzie Mathis, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger

Inexpensive and accessible sensors are accelerating data acquisition in animal ecology. These technologies hold great potential for large-scale ecological understanding, but are limited by current processing approaches which inefficiently distill data into ...

Amplitude and phase reconstruction for Low-Energy Electron Holography of individual proteins

Hannah Julia Ochner

Single-molecule imaging methods are of importance in structural biology, and specifically in the imaging of proteins, since they can elucidate conformational variability and structural changes that might be lost in imaging methods relying on averaging proc ...

node2coords: Graph Representation Learning with Wasserstein Barycenters

Pascal Frossard, Ntorina Thanou, Effrosyni Simou

In order to perform network analysis tasks, representations that capture the most relevant information in the graph structure are needed. However, existing methods learn representations that cannot be interpreted in a straightforward way and that are relat ...

Naming CHO cells for bio-manufacturing: Genome plasticity and variant phenotypes of cell populations in bioreactors question the relevance of old names

Florian Maria Wurm

Chinese Hamster Ovary [CHO] cells are the workhorse for production of modern biopharmaceuticals. They are however immortalized cells with a high propensity for genetic change. Judging from published culture records, CHO cell populations have undergone hund ...

Graph Embeddings for One-pass Processing of Heterogeneous Queries

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Chi Thang Duong

Effective information retrieval (IR) relies on the ability to comprehensively capture a user's information needs. Traditional IR systems are limited to homogeneous queries that define the information to retrieve by a single modality. Support for heterogene ...

Excitation states of metabolic networks predict dose-response fingerprinting and ligand pulse phase signalling

Pierre Magistretti, Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Daniel Keller, Jay Coggan

With a computational model of energy metabolism in an astrocyte, we show how a system of enzymes in a cascade can act as a functional unit of interdependent reactions, rather than merely a series of independent reactions. These systems may exist in multipl ...

High-fidelity optical diffraction tomography of multiple scattering samples

Demetri Psaltis, Joowon Lim

We propose an iterative reconstruction scheme for optical diffraction tomography that exploits the split-step nonparaxial (SSNP) method as the forward model in a learning tomography scheme. Compared with the beam propagation method (BPM) previously used in ...

Adaptive relevance feedback for large-scale image retrieval

François Fleuret, Nicolae Suditu

Content-based image retrieval aims at substituting traditional indexing based on manual annotation by using automatically-extracted visual indexing features. Novel techniques are needed however to efficiently deal with the semantic gap (i.e. the partial ma ...
