In this paper, XfaceEd, our open source, platform independent tool for authoring 3D embodied conversational agents (ECAs) is presented. Following MPEG-4 Facial Animation (FA) stan...
Performance simulation tools must be validated during the design process as functional models and early hardware are developed, so that designers can be sure of the performance of...
— In this paper, we propose a quantizer design algorithm that is optimized for source localization in sensor networks. For this application, the goal is to minimize the amount of...
Given a sequence of n real numbers and an integer k, 1 k 1 2 n(n − 1), the k maximum-sum segments problem is to locate the k segments whose sums are the k largest among all poss...
Currently, the interest in Ambient Intelligence (or AmI) has increased exponentially due to the widespread use of portable devices. Users demand more and more functionality from t...
