An objective skill assessment framework for microsurgical anastomosis based on ALI scores

Aude Billard, Kunpeng Yao, Soheil Gholami

IntroductionThe current assessment and standardization of microsurgical skills are subjective, posing challenges in reliable skill evaluation. We aim to address these limitations by developing a quantitative and objective framework for accurately assessing ...

Reuse of Load-Bearing Timber Elements - Case Study of a Lookout Tower in Lausanne, Switzerland

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Julius Natterer, Jonas Warmuth, Edisson Xavier Estrella Arcos

The construction industry is jeopardizing Earth’s environment; current mitigation efforts do not suffice; and additional sustainable strategies are required. One such strategy consists of reusing structural building elements over multiple service lives. In ...

OASIS: Optimisation-based Activity Scheduling with Integrated Simultaneous choice dimensions

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Janody Pougala

Activity-based models offer the potential of a far deeper understanding of daily mobility behaviour than trip-based models. However, activity-based models used both in research and practice have often relied on applying sequential choice models between sub ...

A modelling framework for modern heritage buildings energy simulation

Franz Graf, Giulia Marino, Giuseppe Galbiati

The latest European polices highlight the urgent need to rehabilitate the existing building stock, responsible for 40 % of the EU's total energy consumption. In this process, a key role is played by thermal simulations, assessing the effective energy perfo ...

Capturing trade-offs between daily scheduling choices

Michel Bierlaire, Timothy Michael Hillel, Janody Pougala

We propose a new modelling approach for daily activity scheduling which integrates the different daily scheduling choice dimensions (activity participation, location, schedule, duration and transportation mode) into a single optimisation problem. The funda ...

A semantic-driven tradespace framework to accelerate aircraft manufacturing system design

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Jinzhi Lu, Xiaochen Zheng

During the design phase of an aircraft manufacturing system, different industrial scenarios need to be evaluated according to key performance indicators to achieve the optimal system performance. It is a highly complex process involving multidisciplinary s ...

Optimization Over Banach Spaces: A Unified View on Supervised Learning and Inverse Problems

Shayan Aziznejad

In this thesis, we reveal that supervised learning and inverse problems share similar mathematical foundations. Consequently, we are able to present a unified variational view of these tasks that we formulate as optimization problems posed over infinite-di ...

Kernel Memory Networks: A Unifying Framework for Memory Modeling

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea, Georgios Iatropoulos

We consider the problem of training a neural network to store a set of patterns with maximal noise robustness. A solution, in terms of optimal weights and state update rules, is derived by training each individual neuron to perform either kernel classifica ...

Recursive Input And State Estimation: A General Framework For Learning From Time Series With Missing Data

Robert West, Alberto Garcia Duran

Time series with missing data are signals encountered in important settings for machine learning. Some of the most successful prior approaches for modeling such time series are based on recurrent neural networks that transform the input and previous state ...

Vehicle sharing systems: A review and a holistic management framework

Michel Bierlaire, Selin Ataç, Nikola Obrenovic

Although different vehicle sharing systems (VSSs) use different vehicle types, the management challenges and optimization problems to be solved are similar or even the same. This observation led us to create a generalized and holistic VSS management framew ...

Predicting exposure concentrations of chemicals with a wide range of volatility and hydrophobicity in different multi-well plate set-ups

Kristin Schirmer, Julita Maria Stadnicka-Michalak

Quantification of chemical toxicity in small-scale bioassays is challenging owing to small volumes used and extensive analytical resource needs. Yet, relying on nominal concentrations for effect determination maybe erroneous because loss processes can sign ...

A unified framework for walking and running of bipedal robots

Ludovic Righetti

In this paper, we propose a novel framework capable of generating various walking and running gaits for bipedal robots. The main goal is to relax the fixed center of mass (CoM) height assumption of the linear inverted pendulum model (LIPM) and generate a w ...

Mean-field dynamics of infinite-dimensional particle systems: global shear versus random local forcing

Elisabeth Agoritsas

In infinite dimensions, many-body systems of pairwise interacting particles provide exact analytical benchmarks for the features of amorphous materials, such as the stress--strain curve of glasses under quasistatic shear. Here, instead of global shear, we ...

Learning the Exciton Properties of Azo-dyes

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Alberto Fabrizio, Sergio Vela Llausi, Ksenia Briling

The ab initio determination of electronic excited state (ES) properties is the cornerstone of theoretical photochemistry. Yet, traditional ES methods become impractical when applied to fairly large molecules, or when used on thousands of systems. Machine l ...

Max-infinitely divisible models and inference for spatial extremes

Raphaël Huser, Emeric Rolland Georges Thibaud

For many environmental processes, recent studies have shown that the dependence strength is decreasing when quantile levels increase. This implies that the popular max-stable models are inadequate to capture the rate of joint tail decay, and to estimate jo ...
