Scanning large bandwidths (spectrum sensing) pushes today’s analog hardware to its limits since periodic sampling at Nyquist rate with sufficient resolution is often prohibitively complex. In this paper, we consider a scenario where the signal to be acquir ...
In many real world applications we do not have access to fully-labeled training data, but only to a list of possible labels. This is the case, e.g., when learning visual classifiers from images downloaded from the web, using just their text captions or tag ...
A straightforward method to achieve super-resolution consists of taking an image sequence of stochastically blinking emitters using a standard wide-field fluorescence microscope. Densely packed single molecules can be distinguished sequentially in time usi ...
A large amount of images with accompanying text captions are available on the Internet. These are valuable for training visual classifiers without any explicit manual intervention. In this paper, we present a general framework to address this problem. Unde ...
To aid the formal verification of fault-tolerant distributed protocols, we propose an approach that significantly reduces the costs of their model checking. These protocols often specify atomic, process-local events that consume a set of messages, change t ...
Opportunistic wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have recently been proposed as solutions for many remote monitoring problems. Many such problems, including environmental monitoring, involve large deployment scenarios with lower-than-average node density, as ...
We focus on image restoration that consists in regularizing a quadratic data-fidelity term with the standard l1 sparse-enforcing norm. We propose a novel algorithmic approach to solve this optimization problem. Our idea amounts to approximating the result ...
We present a novel framework for automatically determining whether or not to apply black point compensation (BPC) in image reproduction. Visually salient objects have a larger influence on determining image quality than the number of dark pixels in an imag ...

We study the problem of distributed state-space estimation, where a set of nodes are required to estimate the state of a nonlinear state-space system based on their observations. We extend our previous work on distributed Kalman filtering to the nonlinear ...
We consider the problem of distributed estimation, where a set of nodes is required to collectively estimate some parameter of interest from noisy measurements. The problem is useful in several contexts including wireless and sensor networks, where scalabi ...
