Solving large optimization problems lies at heart of modem science and technology from social sciences to technological applications, i.e. protein design [1]. Recently, we proposed a new platform for an analog Hamiltonian simulator based on polariton graphs [2], which benefit from continuous read-out and single site control. Ability to control and engineer a wide range of strengths of coupling interactions...
We investigate the propagation and scattering of polaritons in a planar GaAs microcavity in the linear regime under resonant excitation. The propagation of the coherent polariton wave across an extended defect creates phase and intensity patterns with identical qualitative features previously attributed to dark and half-dark solitons of polaritons. We demonstrate that these features are observed for...
In this paper a fault diagnosis approach for robotic manipulators, subject to faults of the joints driving systems, is developed. A model-based diagnostic observer is adopted to detect, isolate and identify failures. Compensation of unknown dynamics, uncertainties and disturbances is achieved through the adoption of a class of neural interpolators, the support vector machines and trained off-line...
Small animal positron emission tomography (PET) image quantitation is severely affected by partial volume effect (PVE) caused by the spatial resolution of PET tomographs. The aim of this work was to reduce the PVE using a modified iterative expectation maximization (EM) reconstruction algorithm. The goal of the method was to increase the accuracy of tracer concentration values in order to obtain an...
The goal of this work was to improve the image quality of small animal PET images by introducing in the reconstruction process the true system point spread function (PSF) and an anatomical image prior. Simulations were performed using a mouse heart phantom (myocardium and ventricles) and a comparison between standard EM reconstruction and EM with PSF modelling and anatomical prior was performed. The...
