This thesis work presents novel methods for the analysis and classification of medical images and, more generally, complex data. First, an unsupervised machine learning method is proposed to order ...
Torrentino, Taciano (Date of defense: 2015-07-10)
The goal of this thesis is to investigate the influence of current modulation in the dynamics of the low-frequency fluctuations (LFF) regime induced by optical feedback in semiconductor lasers. In this ...
Tirabassi, Giulio (Date of defense: 2015-06-05)
En una situación de grandes cambios climáticos, el conocimiento de el sistema Tierra ha devenido, en los últimos años, una de las tareas mas importantes para la comunidad científica. En los últimos diez ...

Optical excitable systems that mimic neuronal behavior have potential to be building-blocks of novel, ultra-fast, neuron-inspired photonic information processing systems. In particular, semiconductor ...
Deza, Juan Ignacio (Date of defense: 2015-02-26)
This Thesis is devoted to the construction of global climate networks (CNs) built from time series -surface air temperature anomalies (SAT)- using nonlinear analysis. Several information theory measures ...

Sensory neurons use sequences of electrical pulses (known as action potentials or spikes) to encode and transmit information of external temporal stimuli. Neural coding is the research field that studies ...
Halpaap, Donatus (Date of defense: 2019-12-09)
With the double pass (DP) technique it is possible to quantify the optical quality of a patient's eye by measuring its point spread function. Due to the low reflectivity of the retina a high-intensity, ...
Aragoneses Aguado, Andrés (Date of defense: 2014-06-18)
The aim of this thesis is the study of the dynamics induced by optical feedback in semiconductor lasers. This study aims, on the one hand, to improve our knowledge of stocahstic complex systems, and on ...
