Abstract— Internet flash crowds (a.k.a. hot spots) are a phenomenon that result from a sudden, unpredicted increase in an on-line object’s popularity. Currently, there is no e...
This paper presents a watermarking scheme for image or video objects. The watermarking of video objects implies different constraints from raw watermarking methods. The mark has t...
In this paper, a novel statistical indoor activity recognition algorithm is introduced. While conditional random fields (CRFs) have prominent properties to this task, no optimal ...

Mutual information is widely used in artificial intelligence, in a descriptive way, to measure the stochastic dependence of discrete random variables. In order to address question...
The two major Markov Random Fields (MRF) based algorithms for image segmentation are the Simulated Annealing (SA) and Iterated Conditional Modes (ICM). In practice, compared to the...
