This paper contains two contributions to very-low-bitrate video coding. First, we show that in contrast to common practice incremental techniques for rate-distortion optimization ...
Successfully structuring information in databases, OLAP cubes, and XML is a crucial element in managing data nowadays. However this process brought new challenges to usability. It...
The Cascadia system provides RFID-based pervasive computing applications with an infrastructure for specifying, extracting and managing meaningful high-level events from raw RFID ...
In real-world machine learning problems, it is very common that part of the input feature vector is incomplete: either not available, missing, or corrupted. In this paper, we pres...
Simplifying the programming models is paramount to the success of reconfigurable computing. We apply the principles of object-oriented programming to the design of stream archite...
