Estimating the Joint Tail Risk Under the Filtered Historical Simulation. An Application to the CCP's Default and Waterfall Fund
(Geneva :Swiss Finance Institute, 2015)
To ensure that central counterparties (“CCPs”) are safe in all market conditions the European Union (EU) has adopted legislation, commonly known as the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (“EMIR”) that deal with their ...
Historical research in archives: user methodology and supporting tools
(Springer, 2011)
Historic research involves finding, using, and correlating information within primary and secondary sources, in order to communicate an understanding of past events. In this process, historians employ their scientific ...
Θεολογία, φιλοσοφία και επιστήμη κατά τους τρεις Ιεράρχες
(2013)
Οι Τρεις Ιεράρχες που καθιερώθηκαν δικαίως στη νεώτερη ιστορία του Ελληνικού Έθνους ως οι προστάτες και στυλοβάτες της ελληνικής παιδείας αποτελούν για όλους μας, εκπαιδευτικούς και εκπαιδευομένους, πηγή εμπνεύσεως και ...
Real-time adaptive multi-robot exploration with application to underwater map construction
(Springer, 2016)
This paper deals with the problem of autonomous exploration of unknown areas using teams of Autonomous X Vehicles (AXVs)—with X standing for Aerial, Underwater or Sea-surface—where the AXVs have to autonomously navigate ...
Localizing global descriptors for content-based image retrieval
(Springer, 2015)
In this paper, we explore, extend and simplify the localization of the description ability of the well-established MPEG-7
(Scalable Colour Descriptor (SCD), Colour Layout Descriptor (CLD) and Edge Histogram Descriptor ...
What, Where and How? Introducing pose manifolds for industrial object manipulation
(Elsevier, 2015)
In this paper we propose a novel method for object grasping that aims to unify robot vision techniques for 24
efficiently accomplishing the demanding task of autonomous object manipulation. Through ontological 25
concepts, ...
Real-time indexing for large image databases: color and edge directivity descriptor on GPU
(Springer, 2014)
In this paper, we focus on implementing the extraction of a well-known low-level image descriptor using the multicore power provided by general-purpose graphic processing units (GPGPUs). The color and edge directivity ...
DARP: Divide Areas Algorithm for Optimal Multi-Robot Coverage Path Planning
(Springer, 2017)
This paper deals with the path planning problem of a team of mobile robots, in order to cover an area of interest, with prior-defined obstacles. For the single robot case, also known as single robot coverage path planning ...
A Multi-Objective Exploration Strategy for Mobile Robots Under Operational Constraints
(IEEE, 2013)
Multi-objective robot exploration constitutes one of the most challenging tasks for autonomous robots performing in various operations and different environments. However, the optimal exploration path depends heavily on ...
How Smart Are Smartphones?: Bridging the marketing and information technology gap.
(IEEE, 2014)
The term "smart" has become widespread in consumer electronics in recent years, reflecting the consumers' need for devices that assist them in their daily activities. The term has a long history of usage in marketing science ...
