Liebe RE-Interessierte, das Fachgruppentreffen 2007 hat wieder sehr erfreuliches Interesse verzeichnet: Am 29/30.11.2007 trafen sich über knapp 40 TeilnehmerInnen in den Räumen der Fraunhofer FIRST. Die Organisation, die von Dr. Ramin Tavakoli von der TU Berlin übernommen wurde, war hervorragend. Das gemeinsame Abendessen in den „12 Aposteln“ wurde rege zum fachlichen und nicht-fachlichen Austa...

Varying delay systems represent a serious challenge in many facets of process control. A frequent issue that arises in practice is introduced by transportation delays in fixed lengths pipes at speed which varies with setpoints. Many classic control techniques can be used to deal with constant delays systems but they do not specifically address this structural delay variability. In this paper we...

User modeling plays an important role in delivering customized web services to the users and improving their engagement. However, most user models in the literature do not explicitly consider the temporal behavior of users. More recently, continuous-time user modeling has gained considerable attention and many user behavior models have been proposed based on temporal point processes. However, t...

This thesis examines and implements some state-of-the-art methods for human face recognition. In order to examine all aspects of the face recognition task at a generic level, we have divided the task into three consecutive steps: 1) Skin color detection (for identifying regions with skin-colored), 2) Face detection (no identification) and 3) Face recognition (for identifying which face is detec...

This paper presents the optimal sequence of a set of jobs for a single machine with idle insert, in which the objective function is to minimize the sum of maximum earliness and tardiness (n/1/I/ETmax). Since this problem tries to minimize and diminish the values of earliness and tardiness, the results can be useful for different production systems such as just in time (JIT). Special case of det...

Self-testing is the high-level security verification of a claimed quantum device, confirming states prepared in device and measurements performed based solely on observed statistics. The statistical correlations can realize self-testing system preparing-and-measuring scenario. However, most previous studies focused shared entangled between devices, at present only few researches are presented e...

Bell nonlocality represents one of the most striking departures quantum mechanics from classical physics. It shows that correlations between spacelike separated systems allowed by are stronger than those present in any theory. In a recent work [A. Tavakoli, M. Farkas, D. Rosset, J.-D. Bancal, and J. Kaniewski, Sci. Adv. 7, eabc3847 (2021)], family functionals tailored to mutually unbiased bases...

The long term goal of this research is to develop a method for probing the ocean and ocean sediment at larger depth for imaging submerged objects at high resolution. We aim to use nonlinear scattering of sound in the presence of inhomogeneities to obtain high resolution images at high penetration depth. Through the developed theory, we can tackle the problem of high attenuation of acoustic fiel...
