Relaxed Exponential Kernels for Unsupervised Learning
Many unsupervised learning algorithms make use of kernels that rely on the Euclidean distance between two samples. However, the Euclidean distance is optimal for Gaussian distribut...

Multiple Instance Boosting for Face Recognition in Videos
For face recognition from video streams often cues such as transcripts, subtitles or on-screen text are available. This information could be very valuable for improving the recogni...

Real Time Head Pose Estimation from Consumer Depth Cameras
We present a system for estimating location and orientation of a person’s head, from depth data acquired by a low quality device. Our approach is based on discriminative random r...

Visual Motion Capturing for Kinematic Model Estimation of a Humanoid Robot
Controlling a tendon-driven robot like the humanoid Ecce is a difficult task, even more so when its kinematics and its pose are not known precisely. In this paper, we present a vis...

Enabling system-level modeling of variation-induced faults in networks-on-chips
Process Variation (PV) is increasingly threatening the reliability of Networks-on-Chips. Thus, various resilient router designs have been recently proposed and evaluated. However,...

Characterizing within-die and die-to-die delay variations introduced by process variations and SOI history effect
Variations in delay caused by within-die and die-to-die process variations and SOI history effect increase timing margins and reduce performance. In order to develop mitigation te...

Enforcing architectural contracts in high-level synthesis
We present a high-level synthesis technique that takes as input two orthogonal descriptions: (a) a behavioral architectural contract between the implementation and the user, and (...

Single-molecule electronic detection using nanoscale field-effect devices
Traditionally, biomolecular systems have been studied in ensemble. While much can be determined with ensemble measurements, scientific and technological interest is rapidly moving...

Fault-tolerant 3D clock network
Clock tree synthesis is one of the most important and challenging problems in 3D ICs. The clock signals have to be delivered by through-silicon vias (TSVs) to different tiers with...
