Structure-Integrated Thin-Film Supercapacitor as a Sensor
Sensors, 2022 Today, aircraft composite structures are generally over-dimensioned to avoid catastrophic failure by unseen damages. This leads to a higher system weight and therefore an unwanted increase in greenhouse gas emissions.

Adaptive Index Structures [PDF]
, 2002 Traditional indexes aim at optimizing the node accesses during query processing, which, however, does not necessarily minimize the total cost due to the possibly large number of random accesses. In this paper, we propose a general framework for adaptive indexes that improve overall query cost. The performance gain is achieved by allowing index nodes to

Hierarchical Adaptive Structural SVM for Domain Adaptation [PDF]
International Journal of Computer Vision, 2016 A key topic in classification is the accuracy loss produced when the data distribution in the training (source) domain differs from that in the testing (target) domain. This is being recognized as a very relevant problem for many computer vision tasks such as image classification, object detection, and object category recognition.

Structural Adaptivity of Directed Networks
CoRR, 2022 Network structure plays a critical role in functionality and performance of network systems. This paper examines structural adaptivity of diffusively coupled, directed multi-agent networks that are subject to diffusion performance. Inspired by the observation that the link redundancy in a network may degrade its diffusion performance, a distributed ...
