For detecting objects in natural visual scenes, several powerful image features have been proposed which can collectively be described as spatial histograms of oriented energy. Th...
We investigate the use of two concurrent input channels to perform a pointing task. The first channel is the traditional mouse input device whereas the second one is the gaze posi...
We introduce ephemeral adaptation, a new adaptive GUI technique that improves performance by reducing visual search time while maintaining spatial consistency. Ephemeral adaptive ...
The handoff algorithms in the current generation of 802.11 networks are primarily reactive in nature, because they wait until the link quality degrades substantially to trigger a ...
Interobserver reliability and reproducibility are well known problems in experimental research within the social and behavioural sciences. We propose the use of formal techniques ...
Log preprocessing, a process applied on the raw log before applying a predictive method, is of paramount importance to failure prediction and diagnosis. While existing filtering ...
Parallel simulation is a technique to accelerate microarchitecture simulation of CMPs by exploiting the inherent parallelism of CMPs. In this paper, we explore the simulation para...
