Deep learning-based hard spatial attention for driver in-vehicle action monitoring

Imen Jegham, Ihsen Alouani, Anouar Ben Khalifa, Mohamed Ali Mahjoub

Distracted driving is one of the main causes of deaths and injuries in the world. Monitoring driver behaviors through Driver Action Recognition (DAR) contributes significantly to building safer transportation systems. However, in naturalistic driving settings, this task is complex and challenging…

Sensor Sensitivity Based on Exceptional Points Engineered via Synthetic Magnetism

S.R. Mbokop Tchounda, P. Djorwé, S.G. Nana Engo, B. Djafari-Rouhani

An efficient mass sensor based on exceptional points (EPs), engineered under a synthetic magnetism requirement, is proposed. The benchmark system consists of an electromechanical (optomechanical) system where an electric (optical) field is driving two mechanical resonators that are mechanically…

Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of the Critically Refracted Longitudinal Waves (LCR) Beam Profile Generated by a Transducer

W. Djerir, T. Boutkedjirt, Mohamed Ourak, R. Halimi, A. Rezzoug, F. Rekbi, A. Allag

Due to its advantageous properties, the critically refracted longitudinal waves (LCR) are used in various fields of nondestructive evaluation, especially for residual stress measurements. However, although many researches use these waves, the characteristics of the LCR beams are not completely…

Mesoscopic Klein-Schwinger effect in graphene

A. Schmitt, P. Vallet, D. Mele, M. Rosticher, T. Taniguchi, K. Watanabe, E. Bocquillon, G. Fève, Jean-Marc Berroir, Christophe Voisin, J. Cayssol, M. Goerbig, J. Troost, E. Baudin, Bernard Plaçais

Strong electric field annihilation by particle–antiparticle pair creation, also known as the Schwinger effect, is a non-perturbative prediction of quantum electrodynamics. Its experimental demonstration remains elusive, as threshold electric fields are extremely strong and beyond current reach.…

Dielectric and optical properties of superlattices of epitaxially connected nanocrystals

Christophe Delerue, P. Tim Prins, Daniel Vanmaekelbergh, Zeger Hens

Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) are believed to strongly absorb resonant light; this property is key to ongoing applications of NCs as phosphor in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for lighting, in displays, and photodetectors. However, it has been realized that NCs in a low dielectric medium…
