Analytical Computation of the Sensitivity Coefficients in Hybrid AC/DC Networks

Mario Paolone, Willem Lambrichts

In this paper, we present a model for the analytical computation of the power flow sensitivity coefficients (SCs) for hybrid AC/DC networks. The SCs are defined as the partial derivates of the nodal voltages with respect to the active and reactive power in ...

A Gapless Post-quantum Hash Proof System in the Hamming Metric

Serge Vaudenay, Bénédikt Minh Dang Tran

A hash proof system (HPS) is a form of implicit proof of membership to a language. Out of the very few existing post-quantum HPS, most are based on languages of ciphertexts of code-based or lattice-based cryptosystems and inherently suffer from a gap cause ...

LISA – A Modern Proof System

Viktor Kuncak, Simon Guilloud, Sankalp Gambhir

We present LISA, a proof system and proof assistant for constructing proofs in schematic first-order logic and axiomatic set theory. The logical kernel of the system is a proof checker for first-order logic with equality and schematic predicate and fun ...

Data-driven 1D wave propagation for site response analysis

Jean-François Molinari, Sacha Zenon Wattel, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez

Prediction of ground motion triggered by earthquakes is a prime concern for both the seismology community and geotechnical earthquake engineering one. The subfield occupied with such a problem is termed site response analysis (SRA), its one-dimensional fla ...

Dielectric metasurfaces and their applications for optical biosensing

Yasaman Jahani

Over the past century, our understanding of life has been focused on its most fundamental building blocks: molecules. Biological molecules, such as proteins found in blood, other body fluids, or tissues, are excellent guides to identifying a normal or abno ...

Health data privacy through homomorphic encryption and distributed ledger computing: an ethical-legal qualitative expert assessment study

Marcello Ienca

Background: Increasingly, hospitals and research institutes are developing technical solutions for sharing patient data in a privacy preserving manner. Two of these technical solutions are homomorphic encryption and distributed ledger technology. Homomorph ...

Toward Mobile Distributed Ledgers

Boi Faltings, Sujit Prakash Gujar, Dimitrios Chatzopoulos, Anurag Jain

Advances in mobile computing have paved the way for new types of distributed applications that can be executed solely by mobile devices on Device-to-Device (D2D) ecosystems (e.g., crowdsensing). Sophisticated applications, like cryptocurrencies, need distr ...

Choreography Controlled (ChoCo) brain MRI artifact generation for labeled motion-corrupted datasets

Bastien Chopard, Michel Kocher, François Lazeyras, Sébastien Courvoisier, Julien Songeon

MRI is a non-invasive medical imaging modality that is sensitive to patient motion, which constitutes a major limitation in most clinical applications. Solutions may arise from the reduction of acquisition times or from motion-correction techniques, either ...

Synthesis and direct assay of large macrocycle diversities by combinatorial late-stage modification at picomole scale

Gerardo Turcatti, Jonathan Patrice Vesin, Christian Heinis, Alessandro Angelini, Gontran Sangouard, Julien Bortoli Chapalay, Mischa Schüttel, Ganesh Kumar Mothukuri, Manuel Leonardo Merz, Sevan Mleh Habeshian, Cristina Diaz Perlas, Zsolt Bognár

Macrocycles have excellent potential as therapeutics due to their ability to bind challenging targets. However, generating macrocycles against new targets is hindered by a lack of large macrocycle libraries for high-throughput screening. To overcome this, ...

Entering the plasma agriculture field: An attempt to standardize protocols for plasma treatment of seeds

Alan Howling, Ivo Furno, Fabio Avino, Alexandra Waskow

Plasma treatments are currently being assessed as a seed processing technology for agricultural purposes. There is sufficient information as a proof-of-concept, but a lack of standardization in the methodology prevents a convincing evaluation of plasma tre ...

Nanoscale Pattern Extraction from Relative Positions of Sparse 3D Localizations

Suliana Manley, Christian Sieben

Inferring the organization of fluorescently labeled nanosized structures from single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) data, typically obscured by stochastic noise and background, remains challenging. To overcome this, we developed a method to extrac ...

Consensual and Privacy-Preserving Sharing of Multi-Subject and Interdependent Data

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Kévin Clément Huguenin, Alexandra-Mihaela Olteanu, Italo Ivan Dacosta Petrocelli

Individuals share increasing amounts of personal data online. This data often involves–or at least has privacy implications for–data subjects other than the individual who shares it (e.g., photos, genomic data) and the data is shared without their consent. ...
