Answering queries over an incomplete database w.r.t. a set of constraints is an important computational task with applications in fields as diverse as information integration and ...
This demonstration presents iPDA, a system to support privacy-preserving data access in location-based mobile services. The iPDA system consists of three main components: 1) a mob...
Sparse Orthonormal Transforms (SOT) has recently been proposed as a data compression method that can achieve sparser representations in transform domain. Given initial conditions,...
This paper describes the development of an anthropomorphic visual sensor with retina-like structure to perform the polar mapping. The sensor consists of a dove prism for imagerota...
Abstract. This paper explores how to predict query difficulty for contextual image retrieval. We reformulate the problem as the task of predicting how difficult to represent a quer...
