The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and most powerful particle collider. Its main objectives are to explore the validity of the standard model of particle physics and to look for new physics beyond it, at unprecedented collision energies ...
The discovery of a new bosonic resonance, whose interactions are consistent with those of the Standard Model Higgs boson, have been reported by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. In this thesis we describe the theoretical reasons to consider the Standard Mo ...
We present a new programmable neighborhood mechanism for hardware implemented Kohonen self-organizing maps (SOMs) with three different map topologies realized on a single chip. The proposed circuit comes as a fully parallel and asynchronous architecture. T ...

This paper proposes an algorithm for distributed classification, based on a SVM scheme. The contribution of each support vector is approximated by low complexity distributed thresholding over sub-dictionaries, whose union forms a redundant dictionary of at ...
