This class of processes has many applications, for example, in credit collections, financial markets, advertising, social networks, and—traditionally—earthquake prediction. The main idea is to leverage the internal branching representation of the process. The convergence properties of the method are significantly better than what can be achieved with traditional maximum-likelihood estimation methods.A smart bra for detecting early-stage breast cancerPublished:03.04.20 — EPFL students teamed up with startup IcosaMed to develop the SmartBra – the first piece of smart clothing that can be used for cancer prevention.All news
