Abstract—In this paper, we propose an optimal quadtree (QT)based motion estimator for video compression. It is optimal in the sense that for a given bit budget for encoding the d...
Abstract--Automatic video annotation is a challenging yet important problem for content-based video indexing and retrieval. In most existing works, annotation is formulated as a mu...
A new stochastic clustering algorithm is introduced that aims to locate all the local minima of a multidimensional continuous and differentiable function inside a bounded domain. ...
The aim of Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) is to enhance the capacity of the airspace while satisfying Air Traffic Control constraints and airlines requests to optimize their o...
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are increasingly managing very large sets of data and hence a centralized data repository may not always provide the most scalable solution. H...
