Epidemicity indices and reproduction numbers from infectious disease data in connected human populations

Andrea Rinaldo, Lorenzo Mari, Cristiano Trevisin

We focus on distinctive data-driven measures of the fate of ongoing epidemics. The relevance of our pursuit is suggested by recent results proving that the short-term temporal evolution of infection spread is described by an epidemicity index related to th ...

At what spatial scale does natural selection operate? Using multiscale frameworks to calibrate the effects of environmental factors across landscape continuums

Annie Sandrine Guillaume

Patterns in nature arise from processes interacting across a continuum of spatial scales, where new relationships emerge at each level of investigation. These patterns are nested features encompassing fine-scale local patterns, such as topography and geolo ...

Aggregating Spatial and Photometric Context for Photometric Stereo

David Honzátko

Photometric stereo, a computer vision technique for estimating the 3D shape of objects through images captured under varying illumination conditions, has been a topic of research for nearly four decades. In its general formulation, photometric stereo is an ...

OrthoPlanes: A Novel Representation for Better 3D-Awareness of GANs

Zhuoqian Yang

We present a new method for generating realistic and view-consistent images with fine geometry from 2D image collections. Our method proposes a hybrid explicitimplicit representation called OrthoPlanes, which encodes fine-grained 3D information in feature ...

The effects of visual distractors on serial dependence

David Pascucci

Attractive serial dependence occurs when perceptual decisions are attracted toward previous stimuli. This effect is mediated by spatial attention and is most likely to occur when similar stimuli are attended at nearby locations. Attention, however, also in ...

Structure-function coupling increases during interictal spikes in temporal lobe epilepsy: A graph signal processing study

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Patric Hagmann, Maria Giulia Preti

Objective: Structure-function coupling remains largely unknown in brain disorders. We studied this coupling during interictal epileptic discharges (IEDs), using graph signal processing in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). ...

Mapping Active Site Geometry to Activity in Immobilized Frustrated Lewis Pair Catalysts

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Rubén Laplaza Solanas, Shubhajit Das, Jacob Terence Blaskovits

The immobilization of molecular catalysts imposes spatial constraints on their active site. We reveal that in bifunctional catalysis such constraints can also be utilized as an appealing handle to boost intrinsic activity through judicious control of the a ...

A Lightweight Goal-Based model for Trajectory Prediction

Kaouther Messaoud Ben Amor

We present a lightweight goal-based model for multimodal, probabilistic trajectory prediction for urban driving. Previous conditioned-on-goal methods have used map information in order to establish a set of potential goals and then complete the correspondi ...

Aesthetic experience enhances first-person spatial representation

Mariana Babo Rebelo

Episodic autobiographical memories are characterized by a spatial context and an affective component. But how do affective and spatial aspects interact? Does affect modulate the way we encode the spatial context of events? We investigated how one element o ...
