Star Formation in the Eagle Nebula (2008)
Book Chapter
M. Oliveira, J. (2008). Star Formation in the Eagle Nebula. In Handbook of Star Forming Regions: Volume II, The Southern Sky. Astronomical Society of the Pacific

M16 (the Eagle Nebula) is a striking star forming region, with a complex morphology of gas and dust sculpted by the massive stars in NGC 6611. Detailed studies of the famous ``elephant trunks'' dramatically increased our understanding of the massive... Read More about Star Formation in the Eagle Nebula.

Pushing the precision limit of ground-based eclipse photometry (2008)
Book Chapter
(2008). Pushing the precision limit of ground-based eclipse photometry. In Transiting Planets (IAU S253)

Until recently, it was considered by many that ground-based photometry could not reach the high cadence sub-mmag regime because of the presence of the atmosphere. Indeed, high frequency atmospheric noises (mainly scintillation) limit the precision th... Read More about Pushing the precision limit of ground-based eclipse photometry.

Kernel Fisher Discriminant Analysis in Full Eigenspace (2008)
Book Chapter
Mandal. (2008). Kernel Fisher Discriminant Analysis in Full Eigenspace. In Proceedings of the 2007 International Conference on Image Processing, Computer Vision, & Pattern Recognition, IPCV 2007, June 25-28, 2007, Las Vegas Nevada, (235-241)

This work proposes a method which enables us to perform kernel Fisher discriminant analysis in the whole
eigenspace for face recognition. It employs the ratio of eigenvalues to decompose the entire kernel feature space into two subspaces: a reliable... Read More about Kernel Fisher Discriminant Analysis in Full Eigenspace.
