User-generated podcasting service over human-centric opportunistic network can facilitate user-generated content sharing while humans are on the move beyond the coverage of infrastructure networks. We focus on the aspects of designing efficient forwarding ...
Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a new paradigm for video compression based on the information theoretical results of Slepian-Wolf (SW) and Wyner-Ziv (WZ). In this work, a performance analysis of image and video coding schemes based on DVC are presented, ...
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 ...
Approximately 25 percent of the budget for the maintenance and renewal of railway tracks –in Switzerland more than a billion Swiss Francs– is used for the switches (points) and crossings (S&C). While in the mean time the budget expenditure for the maintena ...
Biometric identity verification systems frequently face the challenges of non-controlled conditions of data acquisition. Under such conditions biometric signals may suffer from quality degradation due to extraneous, identity-independent factors. It has bee ...
We present a fine grain quality control method for multimedia applications. The method takes as input an application software composed of actions. The execution times of actions are unknown increasing functions of quality level parameters. The method allow ...
When human subjects assess the quality of multimedia data, high level perceptual processes such as Focus of Attention (FoA) and eye movements are believed to play an important role in such tasks. While prior art reports incorporation of visual FoA into obj ...
The design, fabrication and experimental investigation of 22-25 MHz fragmented-membrane MEM bulk lateral resonators (BLR) with 100 nm air-gaps on thin (1 and 6 [mu]m) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) are reported. Quality factors as high as 120,000 and motional ...
