Information access in meeting recordings can be assisted by meeting browsers, or can be fully automated following a question-answering (QA) approach. An information access task is defined, aiming at discriminating true vs. false parallel statements about f ...
Since it generates a multitude of interacting cracks, the computational modeling of fragmentation requires special attention. The discontinuous Galerkin formulation provides an efficient scalable framework to simulate non-linear dynamics of spatially discon ...
In this paper, we present a survey comparing different deflection routing based techniques applied to optical burst switching (OBS) networks. For such study we consider the E-OBS architecture proposed in [1] which is an advantageous solution for OBS networ ...

A range of carbonyl compds. including aliph. and arom. aldehydes and ketones were converted to the corresponding thioacetals in high yields in the presence of a catalytic amt. of hafnium trifluoromethanesulfonate (0.1 mol%, room temp.). The mild conditions ...
Simultaneous and temporal masking are two frequently used techniques in psychology and vision science. Although there are many studies and theories related to each masking technique, there are no systematic investigations of their mutual relationship, even ...
While there is a large class of Multiple-Target Tracking (MTT) problems for which batch processing is possible and desirable, batch MTT remains relatively unexplored in comparison to sequential approaches. In this paper, we give a principled probabilistic ...
We review adaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms (MCMC) as a mean to optimise their performance. Using simple toy examples we review their theoretical underpinnings, and in particular show why adaptive MCMC algorithms might fail when some fundamental ...
We present two novel methods for the preparation of arbitrary microscale patterns of polymers on surfaces with pre-defined topography. While photosensitive polymers are used commonly together with optical lithography, the methods presented can be used for ...
In this paper we evaluate and compare six well-known foreground from background subtraction methods against a standard database. To be able to compare these algorithms objectively, we have chosen three challengeable scenarios from this database. The algori ...
