Real-time image-based RGB-D camera motion tracking and environment mapping
In this work, image based estimation methods, also known as direct methods, are studied which avoid feature extraction and matching completely. Cost functions use raw... -
Certified calibration of parallel cable-driven robots
The main objective of this thesis is to propose new methods for the calibration of a large scale cable-driven robot. The principal method to improve the global... -
Blind identification of mixtures and canonical tensor decomposition : applica...
In this manuscript, we focus on the minimal polyadic decomposition of third order tensors, which is often referred to: “Canonical Polyadic” (CP), “CanDecomp”, or... -
Study an optimization of the quality factor of small antennas
Currently, wireless devices play an important role in everyday life. For ease-of-use, these devices are becoming smaller and require very small antennas. However, the... -
The large scale structures. A window on the dark components of the Universe
The dark energy is one of the great mysteries of modern cosmology, responsible for the current acceleration of the expansion of our Universe. Its study is a major... -
Sparsity-based detection strategies for faint signals in noise : application ...
This thesis deals with the problem of detecting unknown signals at low Signal- to- Noise Ratio. This work focuses on the definition, study and implementation of... -
Multi-operation and multi-material cutting force modelling. Application to tu...
The cutting forces have to be known as accurately as possible in order to predict the characteristics of the workpiece as the geometry, the roughness or the material... -
Middle class generations and "gentrification work". Social change and urban c...
At the intersection between urban sociology and social group sociology, the thesis addresses the phenomena of gentrification affecting historical working-class areas... -
Influence of the solvent sorption, additivation, and chemical modification on...
This work forms part of a project aimed to develop Polyamide 6,6(PA6,6)-based automotive fuel tanks. PA6,6 is a good candidate for technical applications since it... -

industrial simulation of composite part manufacturing processes by resin infu...
Composite manufacturing processes by resin infusion, despite their many benefits, struggle to establish themselves in the industrial production phases due to... -
Statistical methods for a oral human-machine dialog system
Dialog managers (DM) in spoken dialogue systems make decisions in highly uncertain conditions, due to errors from the speech recognition and spoken language... -
Automates cellulaires probabilistes et mesures spécifiques sur des espaces sy...
A probabilistic cellular automaton (PCA) is a Markov chain on a symbolic space. Time is discrete, cells evolve synchronously, and the new content of each cell is... -
Towards a metric of the commensurability of interpretative frameworks
Knowledge resulting of the interpretation by an individual of information, it cannot always be handled as an object. Indeed, we create knowledge when filtering... -
Experimental evaluation of a statistical speech synthesis system, HTS, for fr...
The work presented in this thesis is about TTS speech synthesis and, more particularly, about statistical speech synthesis for French. We present an analysis on the... -
Minimization of calibrated loss functions for image classification
Image classification becomes a big challenge since it concerns on the one hand millions or billions of images that are available on the web and on the other hand... -
The civil procedure law of the european union does it form a procedural order ?
Even if it is conceded that the European Union law necessarily involves the renewal of traditional and national legal concepts, order can emerge from disorder. As a... -
Stability modeling of isolated rock blocks at the surface of underground exca...
Failure of rock blocks located at the surface of underground excavations is a common problem in discontinuous rock masses. Since exact methods that take into account... -
Small animal 4D SPECT imaging : assessment of respiratory motion and iodide b...
The aim of this thesis is to investigate temporally evolving phenomena with the use of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).The first part of this thesis... -
Reducing conditions associated to serpentinization : magnetic monitoring of S...
Slow-spreading ridges are fed by a magmatic input and the exhumation of mantle peridotites. Part of the magmatic heat is evacuated through the hydrothermal circulation...
