Are carsharing users more likely to buy a battery electric, plug-in hybrid electric or hybrid electric vehicle? Powertrain choice and shared mobility in Switzerland
(2020)2020 Forum on Integrated and Sustainable Transportation Systems (FISTS)The mobility system is undergoing a paradigm shift from fossil fuel-based mobility towards carbon neutrality and greater energy efficiency. Yet this transformation is still in its infancy. In order to reach the CO2 target defined by the Paris Agreement, an increased use of sharing and electric vehicles is suggested. While many scholars have already investigated the factors relevant for promoting the use of sharing or electric vehicles, ...Conference Paper -
Legal Language Modeling with Transformers

FirecREST: A RESTful API to HPC systems
(2020)2020 IEEE/ACM International Workshop on Interoperability of Supercomputing and Cloud Technologies (SuperCompCloud)As science gateways are becoming an increasingly popular digital interface for scientific communities, it is important for High-Performance Computing centers to provide a modern and externally accessible interface such as Web-enabled APIs. Such an interface provides access to HPC center resources to allow scientific web portals to submit a job or move data in and out the HPC center. This work presents the FirecREST API, a RESTful Web API ...Conference Paper -
Robotic Insertion of Timber Joints using Visual Detection of Fiducial Markers
(2020)ISARC Proceedings ~ Proceedings of the 37th International Sympsoium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (ISARC)Timber building industry is facing a major transformation with digitalization and automation being more broadly adopted. Prefabricated timber frame structures can be mass-produced on large robotic assembly lines, increasing the productivity and competitiveness of wood over standard inorganic materials such as steel or concrete. While standardization is likely to limit creativity, new digital tools, on the contrary, give the possibility ...Conference Paper -

Fitness Landscape Analysis Metrics based on Sobol Indices and Fitness- And State-Distributions
(2020)2020 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC)This paper proposes new Fitness Landscape Analysis (FLA) metrics as measures for problem difficulty in heuristic search. The sensitivity and variable interaction metrics are based on Sobol indices, a common technique in sensitivity analysis. The fitness- and state-variance and the fitness- and state-skewness metrics are based on the second and third central statistical moments. We compute metric values for around 550 continuous test ...Conference Paper -
Intelligent Architectures for Intelligent Machines
(2020)2020 International Symposium on VLSI Design, Automation and Test (VLSI-DAT)Computing is bottlenecked by data. Large amounts of application data overwhelm storage capability, communication capability, and computation capability of the modern machines we design today. As a result, many key applications' performance, efficiency and scalability are bottlenecked by data movement. In this keynote talk, we describe three major shortcomings of modern architectures in terms of 1) dealing with data, 2) taking advantage ...Conference Paper -

Non-Rigid Structure from Motion: Prior-Free Factorization Method Revisited
(2020)2020 IEEE Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV)A simple prior free factorization algorithm \cite{dai2014simple} is quite often cited work in the field of Non-Rigid Structure from Motion (NRSfM). The benefit of this work lies in its simplicity of implementation, strong theoretical justification to the motion and structure estimation, and its invincible originality. Despite this, the prevailing view is, that it performs exceedingly inferior to other methods on several benchmark datasets ...Conference Paper -
Powerset Convolutional Neural Networks
(2020)Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 32We present a novel class of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for set functions, i.e., data indexed with the powerset of a finite set. The convolutions are derived as linear, shift-equivariant functions for various notions of shifts on set functions. The framework is fundamentally different from graph convolutions based on the Laplacian, as it provides not one but several basic shifts, one for each element in the ground set. Prototypical ...Conference Paper
