Smart meters, devices measuring the electricity and gas consumption of a household, are currently being deployed at a fast rate throughout the world. The data they collect are extremely useful, including in the fight against climate change. However, these ...
Computational chemistry techniques offer tremendous potential for accelerating the discovery of sustainable chemical processes and reactions. However, the environmental impacts of the substantial computing power required for these digital methods are often ...
Modern deep networks are trained with stochastic gradient descent (SGD) whose key hyperparameters are the number of data considered at each step or batch size B, and the step size or learning rate n. For small B and large n, SGD corresponds to a stochastic ...
Spiking neural networks are of high current interest, both from the perspective of modelling neural networks of the brain and for porting their fast learning capability and energy efficiency into neuromorphic hardware. But so far we have not been able to r ...
Integrating low-power wearable systems into routine health monitoring is an ongoing challenge. Recent advances in the computation capabilities of wearables make it possible to target complex scenarios by exploiting multiple biosignals and using high-perfor ...
