The power of video over still images is the ability to represent dynamic activities. But video browsing and retrieval are inconvenient due to inherent spatio-temporal redundancies...
We investigate the use of hierarchical Gaussian shortlists to speed up Gaussian likelihood computation. This approach is a combination of hierarchical Gaussian selection and stand...
Weblogs are a source of human activity knowledge comprising valuable information such as facts, opinions and personal experiences. In this paper, we propose a method for mining pe...
Many wireless sensor nodes (motes) interface with slow peripheral devices, requiring the processor to wait. These delays waste time, energy and power, which are valuable but limit...
We propose a smart sound sensor for building context-aware systems that instantly learn and detect events from various kinds of everyday sounds and environmental noise by using sma...
