Ziliotto Salamon, N. (author)Postprocessing has become a major component in movie and image production. This step is no longer a simple cleanup and cutting step, but it involves important manipulations that contribute to the atmosphere of a movie and the perception of a still image. Several movie studios spend a great part of their budget on it, as managing the post...doctoral thesis 2021

Massaad Mouawad, J.M. (author)Ultrasonic flow meters are widely applied to measure flow in a variety of applications. The vast majority of ultrasonic flow meters are based on the measurement of the transit time of an acoustic pulse through the fluid. This can either be done in-line, by inserting a spool piece with ultrasonic transducers into the pipe carrying the fluid, or...doctoral thesis 2021

Carinci, Gioia (author), Giardinà, Cristian (author), Redig, F.H.J. (author)We consider consistent particle systems, which include independent random walkers, the symmetric exclusion and inclusion processes, as well as the dual of the Kipnis-Marchioro-Presutti model. Consistent systems are such that the distribution obtained by first evolving n particles and then removing a particle at random is the same as the one...journal article 2021

Kuś, G.I. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), Bessa, M.A. (author)Gaussian processes are well-established Bayesian machine learning algorithms with significant merits, despite a strong limitation: lack of scalability. Clever solutions address this issue by inducing sparsity through low-rank approximations, often based on the Nystrom method. Here, we propose a different method to achieve better scalability...journal article 2021
