Periocular Biometrics in Mobile Environment

Sébastien Marcel, Tiago De Freitas Pereira

In this work we study periocular biometrics in a challenging scenario: a mobile environment, where person recognition can take place on a mobile device. The proposed technique, that models session variability, is evaluated for the authentication task on th ...

PALMsiever: a tool to turn raw data into results for single-molecule localization microscopy

Suliana Manley, Seamus John Holden, Thomas Pengo

During the past decade, localization microscopy (LM) has transformed into an accessible, commercially available technique for life sciences. However, data processing can be challenging to the non-specialist and care is still needed to produce meaningful re ...

Self-consistent continuum solvation for optical absorption of complex molecular systems in solution

Nicola Marzari, Iurii Timrov, Oliviero Andreussi

We introduce a new method to compute the optical absorption spectra of complex molecular systems in solution, based on the Liouville approach to time-dependent density-functional perturbation theory and the revised self-consistent continuum solvation model ...

The Schema Editor of OpenIoT for Semantic Sensor Networks

Jean Paul Calbimonte Perez

Ontologies provide conceptual abstractions over data, in domains such as the Internet of Things, in a way that sensor data can be harvested and interpreted by people and applications. The Semantic Sensor Network (SSN) ontology is the de-facto standard for ...

Impact of Eye Detection Error on Face Recognition Performance

Sébastien Marcel, Laurent El Shafey, Abhishek Dutta

The location of the eyes is the most commonly used features to perform face normalization (i.e., alignment of facial features), which is an essential preprocessing stage of many face recognition systems. In this paper, we study the sensitivity of open sour ...

The open source dynamics in geospatial research and education

Stéphane Joost

Peer reviewing is one of the core processes of science. While the typical blind system helps to improve original submissions, there are opportunities for academic publishing to learn from open source practices (commits, bug reports, feature requests, docum ...

A Monocular Pose Estimation System based on Infrared LEDs

Davide Scaramuzza

We present an accurate, efficient, and robust pose estimation system based on infrared LEDs. They are mounted on a target object and are observed by a camera that is equipped with an infrared-pass filter. The correspondences between LEDs and image detectio ...
