Searching for Strong Gravitational Lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon

Strong gravitational lenses provide unique laboratories for cosmological and astrophysical investigations, but they must first be discovered - a task that can be met with significant contamination by other astrophysical objects and asterisms. Here we revie ...

Multimodal person recognition in audio-visual streams

Do Hoang Nam Le

Multimedia databases are growing rapidly in size in the digital age. To increase the value of these data and to enhance the user experience, there is a need to make these videos searchable through automatic indexing. Because people appearing and talking in ...

Citizen Visual Search Engine: Detection and Curation of Urban Objects

Jeffrey Huang, Immanuel Chee Beng Koh

Increasingly, the ubiquity of satellite imagery has made the data analysis and machine learning of large geographical datasets one of the building blocks of visuospatial intelligence. It is the key to discover current (and predict future) cultural, social, ...

Linked Books: un indice citazionale per la storia di Venezia

Matteo Romanello, Giovanni Colavizza

We present the outcomes of the Linked Books project, resulting in a prototype citation index interlinking the Italian national library catalog (Opac SBN) with the information system of the State Archive of Venice and international authority records or “met ...

An Alternating Trust Region Algorithm for Distributed Linearly Constrained Nonlinear Programs, Application to the Optimal Power Flow Problem

Colin Neil Jones, Jean-Hubert Hours

A novel trust region method for solving linearly constrained nonlinear programs is presented. The proposed technique is amenable to a distributed implementation, as its salient ingredient is an alternating projected gradient sweep in place of the Cauchy po ...

CoFeed: privacy-preserving Web search recommendation based on collaborative aggregation of interest feedback

Martin Rajman, Vinh Toan Luu, Pascal Felber

Search engines essentially rely on the structure of the graph of hyperlinks. Although accurate for the main trend, this is not effective when some query is ambiguous. Leveraging semantic information by the mean of interest matching allows proposing complem ...

Neutrino physics within and beyond the three flavour oscillation

Mikhail Chapochnikov

I will discuss several possible choices for the mass scale M of the Majorana leptons, complementing the Standard Model to describe neutrino masses and oscillations. Depending on M, they can or cannot accommodate eV neutrino anomalies, lead to baryogenesis, ...

Using Bibliographic Knowledge for Ranking in Scientific Publication Databases

Martin Rajman, Martin Veselý

Document ranking for scientific publications involves a variety of specialized resources (e.g. author or citation indexes) that are usually difficult to use within standard general purpose search engines that usually operate on large-scale heterogeneous do ...
