Generalized Linear Models to Forecast Malaria Incidence in Three Endemic Regions of Senegal.

Affecting millions of individuals yearly, malaria is one of the most dangerous and deadly tropical diseases. It is a major global public health problem, with an alarming spread of parasite transmitted by mosquito (Anophele). Various studies have emerged that construct a mathematical and statistical model for malaria incidence forecasting.

Estimation of seizure onset zone from ictal scalp EEG using independent component analysis in extratemporal lobe epilepsy.

The purpose of this study is to localize the seizure onset zone of patients suffering from drug-resistant epilepsy. During the last two decades, multiple studies proposed the use of independent component analysis (ICA) to analyze ictal electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings. This study aims at evaluating ICA potential with quantitative measurements.

Room Temperature O-band DFB Laser Array Directly Grown on (001) Silicon.

Several approaches for growing III-V lasers on silicon were recently demonstrated. Most are not compatible with further integration, however, and rely on thick buffer layers and require special substrates. Recently, we demonstrated a novel approach for growing high quality InP without buffer on standard 001-silicon substrates using a selective growth process compatible with integration.

-1 V bias 67 GHz bandwidth Si-contacted germanium waveguide p-i-n photodetector for optical links at 56 Gbps and beyond.

We demonstrate a 67 GHz bandwidth silicon-contacted germanium waveguide p-i-n photodetector operating at -1 V with 6.8 fF capacitance. The dark current is below 4 nA.

Silicon photonics integrated circuits: a manufacturing platform for high density, low power optical I/O's.

Silicon photonics integrated circuits are considered to enable future computing systems with optical input-outputs co-packaged with CMOS chips to circumvent the limitations of electrical interfaces. In this paper we present the recent progress made to enable dense multiplexing by exploiting the integration advantage of silicon photonics integrated circuits. We also discuss the manufacturability of such circuits, a key factor for a wide adoption of this technology.
