Robustness of conventional and topologically protected edge states in phononic crystal plates
American Physical Society (2018)Many efforts have been devoted to studying the robustness of topologically protected edge states in acoustics; however, the robustness of conventional edge states is rarely reported. In this work we theoretically ... -
Rotation-Invariant Deep Embedding for Remote Sensing Images
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (2021-06-28)Endowing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with the rotation-invariant capability is important for characterizing the semantic contents of remote sensing (RS) images since they do not have typical orientations. Most of ... -
Scalable and Efficient Clustering for Fingerprint-Based Positioning
IEEE (2023)Abstract: Indoor positioning based on IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) fingerprinting needs a reference data set, also known as a radio map, in order to match the incoming fingerprint in the operational phase with the ... -
Second-harmonic illumination to enhance multispectral digital lensless holographic microscopy
Optical Society of America (2016-03)Multispectral digital lensless holographic microscopy (MDLHM) operating with second-harmonic illumination is shown. Added to the improvement of the spatial resolution of the previously reported MDLHM operating with ... -
Second-order analysis of anisotropic spatiotemporal point process data
Wiley (2015-02)Second-order orientation methods provide a natural tool for the analysis of spatial point process data. In this paper, we extend to the spatiotemporal setting the spatial point pair orientation distribution function. The ... -
Second-order and local characteristics of network intensity functions
Springer (2021)The last decade has witnessed an increase of interest in the spatial analysis of structuredpoint patterns over networks whose analysis is challenging because of geometricalcomplexities and unique methodological problems. ... -
Second-order smoothing of spatial point patterns with small sample sizes: a family of kernels
Springer Verlag (2015-01)We consider kernel-based non-parametric estimation of second-order product densities of spatial point patterns. We present a new family of optimal and positive kernels that shows less variance and more flexibility than ... -
Security and Reliability of Room Occupancy Detection Using Probe Requests in Smart Buildings
IEEE (2023-04-19)We present new approaches for determining occupancy in smart building management systems. The solutions can be applied dually, in civil and military areas, not only for economic management but also in crisis situations ... -
Security authentication using phase-encoded nanoparticle structures and polarized light
Optical Society of America (2015)Phase-encoded nanostructures such as quick response (QR) codes made of metallic nanoparticles are suggested to be used in security and authentication applications. We present a polarimetric optical method able to authenticate ... -
Self-exciting point process modelling of crimes on linear networks
SAGE Publications (2022)Although there are recent developments for the analysis of first and second-order characteristics of point processes on networks, there are very few attempts in introducing models for network data. Motivated by the analysis ... -
Self-referenced phase reconstruction proposal of Ghz bandwidth non-periodical optical pulses by in-fiber semi-differintegration
Elsevier (2011)We propose two new techniques able to retrieve the phase profile of a given temporal optical pulse based on the use of in-fiber semi-differintegral operators, where by semi-differintegration we mean either a 0.5th-order ... -
Self-similar behavior in semiconductor superlattices
World Scientific Publishing Company (2012)The scattering of particles in fractal superlattices has been analyzed by means of the transfer matrix method. The fractal superlattice consists of alternating layers of semiconductor materials following the rule of a ... -
Self-similar focusing with generalized devil’s lenses
Optical Society of America (2011)We introduce the generalized devil’s lenses (GDLs) as a new family of diffractive kinoform lenses whose structure is based on the generalized Cantor set. The focusing properties of different members of this family are ... -
Sense of place and the city: the case of non-native residents in Lisbon
University of Maine (United States) (2021-11-19)When immigrants move to a new city, they tend to develop distinct relationships with the urban landscape, which in turn becomes the new setting of their routine-based activities that evolve over time. Previous works in ... -
