Comino Trinidad, Marc (Date of defense: 2020-12-22)
Over the last few years, there has been a notorious growth in the field of digitization of 3D buildings and urban environments. The substantial improvement of both scanning hardware and reconstruction algorithms has led ...
König, Caroline Leonore (Date of defense: 2018-10-30)
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are cell membrane proteins with a key role in regulating the function of cells. This is the result of their ability to transmit extracellular signals, which makes them relevant for ...
Lau Laynes-Lozada, Gustavo Salvador (Date of defense: 2019-11-29)
The main contribution of this thesis is to deepen and generalize previous work done in the average-case analysis of partial match queries in several types of multidimensional search trees. In particular, our focus has been ...
Estañol, Montserrat (Date of defense: 2016-04-29)
Business processes are directly involved in the achievement of an organization's goals, and for this reason they should be performed in the best possible way. Modeling business processes can help to achieve this as, for ...
Arias Duart, Anna (Date of defense: 2023-12-11)
(English) Machine learning and, more specifically, deep learning applications have grown in number in recent years. These intelligent systems have shown remarkable performance across various domains, including sensitive ...
Larraz Hurtado, Daniel (Date of defense: 2015-07-28)
This thesis addresses the development of techniques to build fully-automatic tools for analyzing sequential programs written in imperative languages like C or C++. In order to do the reasoning about programs, the approach ...
Sànchez-Ferreres, Josep (Date of defense: 2021-09-29)
In the era of digital transformation, an increasing number of organizations are start ing to think in terms of business processes. Processes are at the very heart of each business, and must be understood and carried out ...
Álvarez Napagao, Sergio (Date of defense: 2016-02-08)
As distributed systems grow in complexity, the interactions among individuals (agents, services) of such systems become increasingly more complex and therefore more difficult to constrain and monitor. We propose to view ...
Blondel, Gilles (Date of defense: 2023-06-07)
(English) This thesis focuses on the discovery of causal relations and on the prediction of causal effects. Regarding causal discovery, this thesis introduces a novel and generic method to learn causal graphs by performing ...
Renedo Mirambell, Martí (Date of defense: 2023-03-28)
(English) This thesis presents a systematic approach to validate the results of clustering methods on weighted networks, particularly for the cases where the existence of a community structure is unknown. Including edge ...
Cárdenas Domínguez, Martha Ivón (Date of defense: 2017-09-18)
Arguably, drug research has contributed more to the progress of medicine during the past decades than any other scientific factor. One of the main areas of drug research is related to the analysis of proteins. The world ...
Muñoz Gama, Jorge (Date of defense: 2014-12-19)
In the last decades, the capability of information systems to generate and record overwhelming amounts of event data has experimented an exponential growth in several domains, and in particular in industrial scenarios. ...
Álvarez de la Campa Crespo, Mercè (Date of defense: 2023-06-29)
(English) Virtual reality (VR) allows not only to easily change the perceived scenario but also to control several factors associated with the sense of being in an embodied virtual avatar that would not be achievable in ...

Piceno, Marie Ely (Date of defense: 2020-07-27)
This work is developed within the field of data mining and data visualization. Under the premise that many of the algorithms give as result huge amounts of data impossible to handle for the users, we work with the ...
Manero Font, Jaume (Date of defense: 2020-07-14)
Forecasting is a critical task for the integration of wind-generated energy into electricity grids. Numerical weather models applied to wind prediction, work with grid sizes too large to reproduce all the local features ...
Palomares Bonache, Cristina (Date of defense: 2016-10-04)
The final quality of software products and services depends on the requirements stated in the Software Requirements Specifications (SRSs). However, some problems like ambiguity, incompleteness and inconsistency have been ...
Tarrés Puertas, Marta Isabel (Date of defense: 2014-12-18)
The evolution of constraint based geometric models is tightly tied to parametric and feature-based Computer-Aided Design (CAD) systems. Since the introduction of parametric design by Pro/Engineer in the 1980's, most major ...
Martínez Garcia, Eva (Date of defense: 2019-12-19)
