Cortical sensory processing across motivational states during goal-directed behavior

Carl Petersen, Georgios Foustoukos, Matthieu Pierre Auffret, Sami El-Boustani, Johannes Maria Mayrhofer

Behavioral states can influence performance of goal-directed sensorimotor tasks. Yet, it is unclear how altered neuronal sensory representations in these states relate to task performance and learning. We trained water-restricted mice in a two-whisker disc ...

Abstractions for Type-Level Programming

Olivier Eric Paul Blanvillain

Over the past decade, the Scala community has shown great interest in using type-level programming to obtain additional type safety. Unfortunately, the lack of support from the Scala compiler has been a barrier to the adoption of that technique, notably du ...

Leveraging Self-Supervision for Cross-Domain Crowd Counting

Pascal Fua, Weizhe Liu, Nikita Durasov

State-of-the-art methods for counting people in crowded scenes rely on deep networks to estimate crowd density. While effective, these data-driven approaches rely on large amount of data annotation to achieve good performance, which stops these models from ...

Audio-Visual Object Classification For Human-Robot Collaboration

Andrea Cavallaro

Human-robot collaboration requires the contactless estimation of the physical properties of containers manipulated by a person, for example while pouring content in a cup or moving a food box. Acoustic and visual signals can be used to estimate the physica ...

Human Head Yaw Estimation based on Two 3-axis Accelerometers

Hervé Lissek, Gilles André Courtois, Vincent Pierre Olivier Grimaldi

The estimation of the orientation of an object, and a human head in particular, can be defined by the Euler angles: the yaw, pitch and roll. The robust and drift-free estimation of those angles is usually achieved with the data from several sensors such as ...

Biomechanics at the workplace under hypogravity conditions

Tatiana Maillard

The main goal of my research is to establish guidelines for workplace design based on human biomechanics: specifically sitting workplaces and handling areas in 1/6G-1/3G (Moon, Mars) conditions. Such a workplace could be used in long-term space missions in ...

Shrinking Bouma's window: How to model crowding in dense displays

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Alban Bornet

In crowding, perception of a target deteriorates in the presence of nearby flankers. Traditionally, it is thought that visual crowding obeys Bouma's law, i.e., all elements within a certain distance interfere with the target, and that adding more elements ...

Gem5-X : A Many-Core Heterogeneous Simulation Platform for Architectural Exploration and Optimization

David Atienza Alonso, Marina Zapater Sancho, William Andrew Simon, Yasir Mahmood Qureshi

The increasing adoption of smart systems in our daily life has led to the development of new applications with varying performance and energy constraints, and suitable computing architectures need to be developed for these new applications. In this paper, ...

Relative stability toward diffeomorphisms indicates performance in deep nets

Matthieu Wyart, Mario Geiger, Leonardo Petrini, Alessandro Favero

Understanding why deep nets can classify data in large dimensions remains a challenge. It has been proposed that they do so by becoming stable to diffeomorphisms, yet existing empirical measurements support that it is often not the case. We revisit this qu ...

Yapa: Accelerated Proximal Algorithm For Convex Composite Problems

Mireille El Gheche

Proximal splitting methods are standard tools for nonsmooth optimization. While primal-dual methods have become very popular in the last decade for their flexibility, primal methods may still be preferred for two reasons: acceleration schemes are more effe ...

Entropic Fokker-Planck kinetic model

Mohammadhossein Gorji

The diffusion limit of kinetic systems has been subject of numerous studies since prominent works of Lebowitz et al. [1] and van Kampen [2]. More recently, the topic has seen a fresh interest from the rarefied gas simulation perspective. In particular, Fok ...
