In a pervasive computing environment, one is facing the problem of handling heterogeneous data from different sources, transmitted over heterogeneous channels and presented on het...
This paper presents a new boosting (arcing) algorithm called POCA, Parallel Online Continuous Arcing. Unlike traditional boosting algorithms (such as Arc-x4 and Adaboost), that co...

In this article, we propose a method to adapt stepsize parameters used in reinforcement learning for dynamic environments. In general reinforcement learning situations, a stepsize...
In this paper we present an adaptive but robust object
detector for static cameras by introducing classifier grids.
Instead of using a sliding window for object detection we
pro...
