We consider the problem of a sensor network tracking a moving target that exhibits a Markov model of mobility. The sensor nodes have adjustable power levels and the precision of the measurement of the target location depends on both the relative distance f ...
The paper presents a new approach to spotting a particular sound (keyword) in an acoustic stream. The approach is based on hierarchical processing where equally-sampled posterior probabilities of phoneme classes are estimated first, followed by matched fil ...
This paper presents overview of an online audio indexing system, which creates a searchable index of speech content embedded in digitized audio files. This system is based on our recently proposed offline audio segmentation techniques. As the data arrives ...
One crucial task for e-commerce systems is to help buyers find products that not only satisfy their preferences but also reduce their search effort. Usually the amount of available products is far beyond the upper limit that any individual could process by ...

In target tracking, fusing multi-modal sensor data under a power-performance trade-off is becoming increasingly important. Proper fusion of multiple modalities can help in achieving better tracking performance while decreasing the total power consumption. ...

This paper presents a method for admission control and request scheduling for multiply-tiered e-commerce Web sites, achieving both stable behavior during overload and improved response times. Our method externally observes execution costs of requests onlin ...
In this paper, we present a way to track multiple maneuvering targets with varying time-frequency signatures. A particle filter is used to track targets that have constant speeds with changing heading directions. The target motion dynamics help the particl ...
The unprecedented growth of the Internet over the last years, and the expectation of an even faster increase in the numbers of users and networked systems, resulted in the Internet assuming its position as a mass communication medium. At the same time, the ...
This paper demonstrates that the dependability of generic, evolving J2EE applications can be enhanced through a combination of a few recovery-oriented techniques. Our goal is to reduce downtime by automatically and efficiently recovering from a broad class ...
