—In this work we propose a dynamic-texture-based approach to the recognition of facial Action Units (AUs, atomic facial gestures) and their temporal models (i.e., sequences of te...
This paper introduces declarative event patterns (DEPs) as a means to implement protocols while improving their traceability, comprehensibility, and maintainability. DEPs are desc...
We consider the problem of representing, in a space-efficient way, a function f : S → Σ such that any function value can be computed in constant time on a RAM. Specifically, ou...
MPEG-4 Advanced Simple Profile video provides I, P, and B –type frames in each GOP (Group Of Pictures). To maximize the coding efficiency, it is important to determine the distr...
Control-flow misprediction penalties are a major impediment to high performance in wide-issue superscalar processors. In this paper we present Selective Eager Execution (SEE), an ...
