Introduction In order to strengthen the research on security and ambient intelligence, as well as the relationship between the content management and security work at Philips Research and at Twente University, a joint research project is set up. The work will be carried out by two PhD students that will be jointly supervised by Prof. Dr. Willem Jonker (Philips/UT) and Prof. Dr. Pieter Hartel (U...

Philips Semiconductor is a supplier to a wide range of markets for analogue and mixed-signal consumer ICs. These products extend from the simplest form of linear products to advanced VLSI analogue systems such as the One-Chip TV. For new mixed-signal products Philips has started to adopt a strategy of testing similar to that used for digital ICs. This is based on efficiently proving the product...

Cloud climate feedback constitutes the most important uncertainty in climate modelling, and currently even its sign is still unknown. In the recently published report of the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC), 6 out of 20 climate models showed a positive and 14 a negative cloud radiative feedback in a doubled CO2 scenario. The radiative budget of clouds has also been investigated ...

Wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy is an under-recognized cause of heart failure. Pfizer previously developed a machine learning model that performed well in identifying wild-type vs. nonamyloid However, challenges exist when introducing applications into healthcare, mainly due to restrictions on sharing patient data. This requires the triggering and execution outside developer’s in...

this paper tries to survey and estimate non-accelerating inflation rate of unemployment (nairu) and potential output. it uses the unobserved components model to propose a new method. the model consists of ukan law equations and philips curve. it uses unobservable key economic variable in the form of unobserved random trends in an equation system of three variables namely unemployment, gross dom...

This paper describes the conception and development of a solution for improved mobile reception of the digital video broadcast standard for handheld (DVB-H) at Philips Research. It includes a simple characterization of mobility-induced interference based on a suitable model for the doubly selective channel. We further describe estimation and interference cancellation algorithms explaining the t...
