This paper introduces computational techniques to support architects and structural designers in the shaping of strut-and-tie networks in static equilibrium. Taking full advantage of geometry, these techniques build on the reciprocal diagrams of graphic st ...
In the following study is presented two research works: the first is concerned with the elaboration of an intelligent meeting room while the second is about the development of a real time high definition video server capable of advanced accessibility optio ...
This study introduces a novel approach for automatic temporal phase detection and inter-arm coordination estimation in front-crawl swimming using inertial measurement units (IMUs). We examined the validity of our method by comparison against a video-based ...
Scalable video coding is emerging as an efficient alternative to simulcast encoding to distribute the same video content si- multaneously to many users having different terminals and network conditions. In order to select the best combination of video scal ...
We present a generic video codec, which is able to compress image sequences efficiently regardless of their input formats. In addition, this codec supports a wide range of bit rates, without significant changes in its main architecture. A multiresolution r ...
Computers have long been augmenting human capabilities and communication, and with emerging technologies, physical immersion in virtual worlds is now attainable. These advancements push the boundaries of human potential, allowing designers, architects, eng ...
We propose a novel way to augment a real-world scene with minimal user intervention on a mobile phone; the user only has to point the phone camera to the desired location of the augmentation. Our method is valid for horizontal or vertical surfaces only, bu ...
This paper presents a probabilistic algorithm for segmenting text embedded in video based on Monte Carlo sampling. The algorithm approximates the posterior of segmentation thresholds of video text by a set of weighted samples, referred to as particles. The ...

Front crawl is an alternating swimming stroke technique in which different phases of arm movement induce changes in acceleration of limbs and body. This study proposes a new approach to use inertial body worn sensors to estimate main temporal phases of fro ...
