Hua, Yuan (author), Lu, Qi (author), Li, Shuangmu (author), Zhao, Bo (author), Du, S. (author)This brief presents a 48V-to-1V 10-level dual inductor hybrid converter (DIHC) containing 11 on-chip switches and an off-chip gallium nitride (GaN) switch. Thanks to the 10-level Dickson switched-capacitor (SC) circuit, most of the voltage stress will be taken over by off-chip capacitors, which reduces the voltage stress of each switch to 4.8...journal article 2023

Lu, Jenny (author), Vermolen, F.J. (author)In this paper a Spatial Markov Chain Cellular Automata model for the spread of viruses is proposed. The model is based on a graph with connected nodes, where the nodes represent individuals and the connections between the nodes denote the relations between humans. In this way, a graph is connected where the probability of infectious spread...book chapter 2023

Ding, Fangqiang (author), Palffy, A. (author), Gavrila, D. (author), Lu, Chris Xiaoxuan (author)This work proposes a novel approach to 4D radar-based scene flow estimation via cross-modal learning. Our approach is motivated by the co-located sensing redundancy in modern autonomous vehicles. Such redundancy implicitly provides various forms of supervision cues to the radar scene flow estimation. Specifically, we introduce a multi-task model...conference paper 2023
