Understanding the guiding principles of sensory coding strategies is a main goal in computational neuroscience. Among others, the principles of predictive coding and slowness appear to capture aspects of sensory processing. Predictive coding postulates tha ...
The topic addressed in this thesis concerns the relationship between spatial knowledge and information protection in a mobile setting. The proliferation of mobile devices in an increasingly connected world raises growing concern for information security an ...
Over the last two decades medical image processing has become a fundamental tool in medicine, and brain imaging is a paradigm thereof. The fast development of the imaging acquisition techniques allows medical staff to dispose of a variety of data coming fr ...
A speaker diarization system based on an information theoretic framework is described. The problem is formulated according to the {\em Information Bottleneck} (IB) principle. Unlike other approaches where the distance between speaker segments is arbitraril ...
This paper focuses on the interaction patterns of learners studying in pairs who were provided with multimedia learning material. In a previous article, we reported that learning scores were higher for dyads of an ‘animations’ condition than for dyads of a ...
A computer implemented method is provided for monitoring the quality of service of a service provider, the method comprising the steps of receiving first and second reports from first and second clients, respectively, the first and second reports having in ...
The user-generated podcasting service over mobile opportunistic networks can facilitate the user generated content dissemination while humans are on the move. However, in such a distributed and dynamic network environment, the design of efficient content f ...
Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a new video coding paradigm based on two major Information Theory results: the Splepian-Wolf and Wyner-Ziv theorems. Recently, practical DVC solutions have been proposed with promising results; however, there is still a ne ...
Tourist maps are essential resources for visitors to an unfamiliar city because they visually highlight landmarks and other points of interest. Yet, hand-designed maps are static representations that cannot adapt to the needs and tastes of the individual t ...
Event dissemination in large scale dynamic systems is typically claimed to be best achieved using decentralized peer-to-peer architectures. The rationale is to have every participant in the system act both as a client (information consumer) and as a server ...
