Reduced-order models are indispensable for multi-query or real-time problems. However, there are still many challenges to constructing efficient ROMs for time-dependent parametrized problems. Using a linear reduced space is inefficient for time-dependent n ...
In this thesis we design online combinatorial optimization algorithms for beyond worst-case analysis settings.In the first part, we discuss the online matching problem and prove that, in the edge arrival model, no online algorithm can achieve a competiti ...
In this letter we present a versatile trajectory optimization framework that leverages a fused kinematic-dynamic bicycle model for highly dynamic vehicle drifting maneuvers. Our framework can be used online to generate drifting maneuvers, offline to plan d ...
This paper analyses how a course on improvisation and collective creation in engineering addressed to master's students in Switzerland moved online. The course offers an experience in the field of performing arts, through embodied and situated activities, ...
In recent years, population aging and the consequent higher incidence of noncommunicable diseases, have increased the need for long-term health monitoring. Moreover, as healthcare cost is projected to grow substantially by 2030 in OECD countries, the deman ...
A non-intrusive reduced basis (RB) method is proposed for parametrized nonlinear structural analysis undergoing large deformations and with elasto-plastic constitutive relations. In this method, a reduced basis is constructed from a set of full-order snaps ...
Private Set Intersection (PSI) allows two parties, the sender and the receiver, to compute the intersection of their private sets without revealing extra information to each other. We are interested in the unbalanced PSI setting, where (1) the receiver's s ...
We present a Petrov-Galerkin reduced basis (RB) approximation for the parameterized Stokes equation. Our method, which relies on a reduced solution space and a parameter-dependent test space, is shown to be stable (in the sense of Babuska) and algebraicall ...
The speaker diarization system developed at the International Computer Science Institute (ICSI) has played a prominent role in the speaker diarization community, and many researchers in the rich transcription community have adopted methods and techniques d ...
Data warehouses (DW) have been traditionally optimized for readonly query performance, allowing only offline updates at night, essentially trading off data freshness for performance. The need for 24x7 operations in global markets and the rise of online and ...
This thesis is concerned with enabling e-commerce applications in decentralized environments, P2P networks in particular. The work goes along the following two dimensions: P2P reputation systems design and building P2P e-commerce services and applications. ...
