The effect of cataracts and cataract surgery on Claude Monet.

MONET special issue editorial

Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radio is a physical transmission technique suitable for different kinds of applications. Given the relevant power emission constraints imposed by the regulatory bodies in the United States, but likely to be adopted by other countries as well, UWB is emerging as a particularly appealing transmission technique for applications requiring either high bit rates over short range...

MoNet: Moments Embedding Network

Bilinear pooling has been recently proposed as a feature encoding layer, which can be used after the convolutional layers of a deep network, to improve performance in multiple vision tasks. Different from conventional global average pooling or fully connected layer, bilinear pooling gathers 2nd order information in a translation invariant fashion. However, a serious drawback of this family of p...

Optical networking and the MONET project

In December 1994, a group of major US telecommunications industry players (AT&T, Bell Atlantic, Bellcore, BellSouth, Lucent Technologies, Pacific Telesis and Southwestern Bell) formed the Multiwavelength Optical Networking (MONET) Consortium, with partial support from the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), to investigate and advance the vision of nationalscale optical network...

Algorithmic and Computational Complexity Issues of MONET

In this thesis, we study the problem Monet—the Mo(notone) n(ormal form) e(quivalence) t(est)—that asks to decide equivalence of a monotone disjunctive normal form φ and a monotone conjunctive normal form ψ. This problem is a covering problem that can be interpreted as the task of enumerating all (in some sense) minimal solutions of some system. Hence, there is a huge number of similar questions...
