SIGNAL is a synchronized data flow language designed for programming real-time systems. A SIGNAL program defines both data and control processing, from a system of equations, the variables of the system are signals. These equations can be organized as sub-systems (or processes). A signal is a sequence of values which has a clock associated with; this clock specifies the instants at which the va...

PURPOSE Recent studies on diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening in fundus photographs suggest that disagreements between algorithms and clinicians are now comparable to disagreements among clinicians. The purpose of this study is to (1) determine whether this observation also holds for automated DR severity assessment algorithms, and (2) show the interest of such algorithms in clinical practice. ...

This paper investigates several new strategies for the allocation of radio resources (bandwidth and transmission power) using a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme with successive interference cancellation (SIC) in a cellular downlink system. In non-orthogonal access with SIC, the same subband is allocated to multiple users, which requires elaborate multiuser scheduling and subband ass...
