Duality and bicrystals on infinite binary matrices

Thomas Gerber

The set of finite binary matrices of a given size is known to carry a finite type AA bicrystal structure. We first review this classical construction, explain how it yields a short proof of the equality between Kostka polynomials and one-dimensional sums t ...

Evaluation of the role of superoxide radical as chain carrier for the formation of hydroxyl radical during ozonation

Gang Yu, Urs von Gunten, Yan Wang

Superoxide radicals (O-2(center dot-)) have been suggested as an important chain carrier in the radical chain reaction that promotes ozone (O-3) decomposition to hydroxyl radicals ((OH)-O-center dot) during ozonation. However, due to the difficulty in meas ...

Frequency and time domains interactions in nanophotonics

Andrei Kiselev

In this thesis, we discuss the problems of scattering and optical manipulation related to nanosystems of different complexities. The multipolar decomposition method is used to represent scattering processes in nanosystems as a series of elementary excitati ...

Preserving the positivity of the deformation gradient determinant in intergrid interpolation by combining RBFs and SVD: Application to cardiac electromechanics

Alfio Quarteroni, Francesco Regazzoni

The accurate, robust and efficient transfer of the deformation gradient tensor between meshes of different resolution is crucial in cardiac electromechanics simulations. This paper presents a novel method that combines rescaled localized Radial Basis Funct ...

A Benders decomposition for maximum simulated likelihood estimation of advanced discrete choice models

Michel Bierlaire, Claudia Bongiovanni

In this paper, we formulate a mixed integer linear program (MILP) for the simulated maximum likelihood estimation (MLSE) problem and devise a Benders decomposition approach to speed up the solution process. This framework can be applied to any advanced dis ...

Logic Synthesis From Incomplete Specifications Using Disjoint Support Decomposition

Giovanni De Micheli, Andrea Costamagna

Approximate logic synthesis is an emerging field that tolerates errors in the synthesized logic circuits for better optimization quality. Indeed, in many computing problems, the requirement of preserving the exact functionality either results in unnecessar ...

Decomposition Strategy for Districts as Renewable Energy Hubs

François Maréchal, Cédric Terrier, Luise Middelhauve

In light of the energy transition, it becomes a widespread solution to decentralize and to decarbonize energy systems. However, limited transformer capacities are a hurdle for large-scale integration of solar energy in the electricity grid. The aim of this ...

SD-Pose: Semantic Decomposition for Cross-Domain 6D Object Pose Estimation

Mathieu Salzmann, Yinlin Hu, Zhigang Li

The current leading 6D object pose estimation methods rely heavily on annotated real data, which is highly costly to acquire. To overcome this, many works have proposed to introduce computer-generated synthetic data. However, bridging the gap between the s ...
