This work presents a system for the categorization of noisy texts. By noisy it is meant any text obtained through an extraction process (affected by errors) from media different than digital texts. We show that, even with an average Word Error Rate of arou ...
We present a joint PHY/MAC architecture (DCC-MAC) for 802.15.4a-like networks based on PPM-UWB. Unlike traditional approaches it fully utilizes the specific nature of UWB to achieve high rates at low protocol complexity. It is the first MAC protocol that a ...
Transmission of packets over computer networks is subject to packet-level errors, which appear as "bursts" of bit-level errors and are not well modeled by memoryless binary channels. A standard scrambling technique is used for transmission of packets by th ...
We propose a MAC protocol for very low radiated power (1 microwatt) ultra-wide band (UWB) mobile ad-hoc networks. Unlike traditional approaches, our protocol fully utilizes the specific nature of the physical layer of UWB. This makes it possible to reach a ...
This work presents document clustering experiments performed over noisy texts (i.e. text that have been extracted through an automatic process like speech or character recognition). The effect of recognition errors on different clustering techniques is mea ...
We consider the joint optimization of sensor placement and transmission structure for data gathering, where a given number of nodes need to be placed in a field such that the sensed data can be recon structed at a sink within specified distortion bounds wh ...
This work presents categorization experiments performed over noisy texts. By noisy it is meant any text obtained through an extraction process (affected by errors) from media other than digital texts (e.g. transcriptions of speech recordings extracted with ...
We study coding over a class of two-user broadcast channels with additive white Gaussian noise and fading known at the receivers only. Joint decoding of low-density parity-check codes is analyzed. The message update rule at the mapping node linking the use ...
In this paper, we investigate properties of good coding strategies for a class of wireless sensor networks that could be termed "monitoring" networks: Their task is to monitor an underlying physical reality at the highest possible fidelity. Since the sense ...

Due to environmental concerns and strict constraints on interference imposed on other networks, the radiated power of emerging pervasive wireless networks needs to be strictly limited, yet without sacrificing acceptable data rates. Pulsed Time-Hopping Ultr ...
