The Persuasion Bottleneck

When a delivery agency persuades a bicycle courier worker to accept a certain job, it does so by revealing the right amount and kind of information. The goal is to reward both the agent as well as the worker accordingly. In this paper, we model the act of ...

Information Propagation in Multilayer Systems with Higher-Order Interactions across Timescales

Daniel Maria Busiello, Giorgio Nicoletti

Complex systems are characterized by multiple spatial and temporal scales. A natural framework to capture their multiscale nature is that of multilayer networks, where different layers represent distinct physical processes that often regulate each other in ...

En quête d'habitat : choix résidentiels et différenciation des modes de vie familiaux en Suisse

Marie-Paule Thomas

This doctoral thesis is based on the observation that the individualization of society that is taking place today has led to new differentiations within the domains of lifestyle and residential choice. Our main hypothesis was that lifestyle influences resi ...

Investigating cognitive ability using action-based models of structural brain networks

Enrico Amico

Recent developments in network neuroscience have highlighted the importance of developing techniques for analysing and modelling brain networks. A particularly powerful approach for studying complex neural systems is to formulate generative models that use ...

Differential Entropy of the Conditional Expectation under Gaussian Noise

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Alper Köse, Ahmet Arda Atalik

This paper considers an additive Gaussian noise channel with arbitrarily distributed finite variance input signals. It studies the differential entropy of the minimum mean-square error (MMSE) estimator and provides a new lower bound which connects the diff ...

Tracking and Relative Localization of Drone Swarms With a Vision-Based Headset

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano

We address the detection, tracking, and relative localization of the agents of a drone swarm from a human perspective using a headset equipped with a single camera and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). We train and deploy a deep neural network detector o ...

Lane Detection and Lane Changing Phenomena Identification with Data from a Swarm of Drones

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Emmanouil Barmpounakis

In the era of big data, new transportation-related concepts and methodologies need to be proposed for understanding how congestion propagates. pNEUMA, a unique dataset that was acquired during a first-of-its-kind experiment with a swarm of drones over a de ...

Collective Memory and Resistance: Visual explorations in the Historic Centre and Films of Mexico City

Lesslie Astrid Herrera Quiroz

Today, institutionalised discourses surrounding heritage have social and physical impacts, with the potential to lead to a break between inhabitants' collective memory of popular neighbourhoods, and their transforming territories. In this context, the acti ...

Concrete Dam Displacement Prediction Based on an ISODATA-GMM Clustering and Random Coefficient Model

Zhenzhu Meng

Displacement data modelling is of great importance for the safety control of concrete dams. The commonly used artificial intelligence method modelled the displacement data at each monitoring point individually, i.e., the data correlations between the monit ...

Social Interaction and the City: The Effect of Space on the Reduction of Entropy

João Vitor Meirelles de Miranda

How can individual acts amount to coherent systems of interaction? In this paper, we attempt to answer this key question by suggesting that there is a place for cities in the way we coordinate seemingly chaotic decisions. We look into the elementary proces ...

Refined Support and Entropic Uncertainty Inequalities

Benjamin Ricaud

Generalized versions of the entropic (Hirschman-Beckner) and support (Elad-Bruckstein) uncertainty principle are presented for frames representations. Moreover, a sharpened version of the support inequality is obtained by introducing a generalization of th ...

Data compression to define information content of hydrological time series

Marc Parlange, Steven Vincent Weijs, Nicolaas Cornelis van de Giesen

When inferring models from hydrological data or calibrating hydrological models, we are interested in the information content of those data to quantify how much can potentially be learned from them. In this work we take a perspective from (algorithmic) inf ...

Assessing Interaction Dynamics in the Context of Robot Programming by Demonstration

Aude Billard, Brenna Dee Argall, Ana-Lucia Ureche

In this paper we focus on human-robot interaction particularities that occur during programming by demonstration. Understanding what makes the interaction rewarding and keeps the user engaged helps optimize the robot's learning. Two user studies are presen ...
