Abstract. Agent-Oriented Software Engineering (AOSE) methodologies are proposed to develop complex distributed systems based upon the agent paradigm. The natural implementation for...
In many settings there exists a set of potential participants, but the set of participants who are actually active in the system, and in particular their number, is unknown. This ...
Near-duplicate keyframes (NDK) play a unique role in large-scale video search, news topic detection and tracking. In this paper, we propose a novel NDK retrieval approach by explo...
In this paper, we describe a fully automatic video retrieval prototype system that uses an image or a video sequence of an interested identity as probe. The system is based on fac...
One of the most critical issues that remains to be fully addressed in existing multimodal evolutionary algorithms is the difficulty in pre-specifying parameters used for estimatin...
