Structured Region Graphs: Morphing EP into GBP

, 2012
GBP and EP are two successful algorithms for approximate probabilistic inference, which are based on different approximation strategies. An open problem in both algorithms has been how to choose an appropriate approximation structure. We introduce 'structured region graphs', a formalism which marries these two strategies, reveals a deep connection ...

Optimal design of morphing structures

, 2012
Morphing structures change their geometric configuration to achieve a wide range of performance goals. For morphing aircraft these include alleviating drag, or altering aerofoil lift. The design of structures capable of realising these goals is a highly multidisciplinary problem.

Organizational speed as a dynamic capability: Toward a holistic perspective [PDF]

, 2019
Current research on organizational speed has been disjointed, which has left organizational speed as an underdeveloped area of study. In this essay, we expand the view of organizational speed as a multidimensional gestalt-like construct that may ...

Cellular structures for shape morphing

, 2022
Des matériaux qui seraient capables de changer de forme par eux-mêmes peuvent trouver des applications dans de nombreux domaines technologiques. Par exemple, en ``soft robotics’’, où changer de forme de manière continue permet d’attraper des objets fragiles, de se faufiler dans des espaces difficiles d’accès ou d'assister des opérations chirurgicales ...
