This work is developed within the field of data mining and data visualization. Under the premise that many of the algorithms give as result huge amounts of data impossible to handle for the users, we work with the ...
This thesis collects the research works I pursued as Ph.D. candidate at the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC). Most of the work has been accomplished at the Mobile Network Department Centre Tecnologic de ...
Signed languages are complete and natural languages used as the first or preferred mode of communication by millions of people worldwide. However, they, unfortunately, continue to be marginalized languages. Designing, ...
Nowadays, Cloud Computing is widely used to host and deliver services over the Internet. The architecture of clouds is complex due to its heterogeneous nature of hardware and is hosted in large scale data centers. To ...
Modern industrial processes are becoming more complex, and consequently monitoring them has become a challenging task. Fault Detection and Diagnosis (FDD) as a key element of process monitoring, needs to be investigated ...
Drug discovery is a time and resource consuming process involving the identification of a target and the exploration of suitable drug candidates for it. To streamline drug discovery, computational techniques help identifying ...
This thesis presents, discusses and compares a set of methodologies and several appropriate combinations of them, to provide accurate estimation of process variables, either for steady-state or dynamic systems. <br/><br/>Firstly, ...
The present dissertation contributes to Data Science in the Human lmmunodeficiency Virus (HIV) field, addressing specific issues related to the modelling of data coming from three different clinical trials based on ...
(English) A great deal is known about second-order statistics. For many years, most of the signal processing problems have been addressed under the perspective of the first and second-order moments of the data, known to ...
In order to reach the goal set in the Paris agreement of limiting the rise in global average temperature well below 2 ºC compared to pre-industrial levels, massive efforts to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions are ...
The brain is a complex organ whose activity spans multiple scales, both spatial and temporal. The computational unit of the brain is thought to be the neurone. At the microscopic level, neurones communicate via action ...
Existing solutions for data sharing are not fully compatible with multi-provider contexts. Traditionally, providers offer their datasets through hermetic Data Services with restricted APIs. Therefore, consumers are compelled ...
With the huge growth in the amount of data generated by information systems, it is common practice today to store datasets in their raw formats (i.e., without any data preprocessing or transformations) in large-scale data ...
We live in a complexand interconnected world which permeates ditterent scales. sectors or decision problems. This fact is acknowledged by the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which underscores current ...
Buildings are considered to be one of the primary contributors to the socioeconomic development of a country. However, they use a large portion of energy and available natural resources. With the industrialization leading ...
Meshed High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) grids are seen as solution to transmit and exchange high amounts of power across long distances or using submarine cables with high levels of flexibility and redundancy. Also, they ...
(English) High voltage direct current (HVDC) technologies have been used for bulk power transmission over long distances since the 1950s. These technologies have proven to be the most cost-efficient compared to the high ...
This investigation is based on a study of the recently emerging problems in certain Mediterranean cities due to the widening gap between their physical and historical context and their natural boundaries. The first approach ...
Swiss architecture is known for its high level of quality and for being an international leader in innovation and experimentation. This is due, in part, to its close relationship with art. The thesis thematizes this fact ...
The present project is aimed to analyze the steel structure from an evolutionary point of view. The study¿s context has been the 20th century on the Catalan capital city in order to see how the historical, normative and ...
