(author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)Board level vibration testing is a commonly used method to predict the solder joint reliability of surface-mounted components seated onto printed circuit boards (PCB). Current board level vibration test methods are mainly developed from a solely mechanical stress application standpoint. This makes such stress tests one dimensional in nature...conference paper 2023

Balim, Haldun (author), Park, Seonwook (author), Wang, Xi (author), Zhang, X. (author), Hilliges, Otmar (author)Despite the recent development of learning-based gaze estimation methods, most methods require one or more eye or face region crops as inputs and produce a gaze direction vector as output. Cropping results in a higher resolution in the eye regions and having fewer confounding factors (such as clothing and hair) is believed to benefit the final...conference paper 2023

Yu, Haoyuan (author), Zhang, Hanwen (author), Wang, Yanbo (author), Qin, Z. (author), Chen, Zhe (author), Bauer, P. (author)This article investigates the stability of triple active bridge (TAB) converter with different types of loads. In this paper, port2 of TAB converter adopts voltage control to supply a constant power load (CPL), and port3 uses voltage control to supply a resistor or uses current control to supply a battery. Then, an extra element theorem-based ...conference paper 2023

Lesueur, M. (author), Zhang, X. (author), Poulet, Thomas (author), Veveakis, Manolis (author)The seminal work of Gurson (J Eng Mater Technol 99:2–5, 1977) on a simplified pore structure, a single spherical pore, first provided a theoretical relationship between the yield stress and the porosity. This contribution extends the approach to determine the macroscopic yield of a porous material by taking explicitly into account its...conference paper 2023

Zhang, A. (author), Dieudonné, A.A.M. (author)Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) involves bacteria to drive calcite precipitation and naturally cement soils, thereby improving soils performance. Experimental studies have shown that bio-cemented specimen can suffer from severe spatial inhomogeneity of the calcite content, leading to large uncertainty in treatment...conference paper 2023

Zhang, Haoming (author), Wang, Zhanxin (author), Vallery, H. (author)The global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) play a vital role in transport systems for accurate and consistent vehicle localization. However, GNSS observations can be distorted due to multipath effects and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) receptions in challenging environments such as urban canyons. In such cases, traditional methods to classify...conference paper 2023

Zhang, Li (author), Dong, Y. (author), Farah, H. (author), van Arem, B. (author)The gradual deployment of automated vehicles (AVs) results in mixed traffic where AVs will interact with human-driven vehicles (HDVs). Thus, social-aware motion planning and control while considering interactions with HDVs on the road is critical for AVs' deployment and safe driving under various maneuvers. Previous research mostly focuses on...conference paper 2023

Ruzzi, Alessandro (author), Shi, X. (author), Wang, Xi (author), Li, Gengyan (author), De Mello, Shalini (author), Chang, Hyung Jin (author), Zhang, X. (author), Hilliges, Otmar (author)We propose GazeNeRF, a 3D-aware method for the task of gaze redirection. Existing gaze redirection methods operate on 2D images and struggle to generate 3D consistent results. Instead, we build on the intuition that the face region and eyeballs are separate 3D structures that move in a coordinated yet independent fashion. Our method leverages...conference paper 2023

In order to build inclusive ASR, mitigating the bias against speaker groups who speak in a “non-standard” or “diverse” way is crucial. We aim to mitigate the bias against non-native-accented Flemish in a Flemish ASR system....conference paper 2023
