Evaluation of Background Subtraction Methods

Samira Sheikhi

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 ...

Vibroacoustics and wave propagation of novel chiral honeycombs - art. no. 69280J

Alessandro Spadoni

Novel tetrachiral honeycomb structures are evaluated for the first time from the vibroacoustic point of view. A numerical method based on Bloch wave approximations for Finite Element models of the unit cells is applied to simulate the pass-stop band charac ...

Facial Expressions Evaluation Survey

Michel Bierlaire, Jean-Philippe Thiran, Matteo Sorci, Gianluca Antonini

Facial expressions are probably the most visual method to convey emotions and one of the most powerful means to relate to each other. A typical automatic system for the recognition of facial expressions is based on a representation of the expression, learn ...

Imaging of renal and prostate carcinoma with refractive index radiology

Giorgio Margaritondo

Having better edge enhancement and penetrating power, refractive index radiology is suitable for the imaging of weakly absorbing objects such as tissue specimens. In this study the potential of refractive index radiology was evaluated for the imaging of re ...

Systematic Design Flow for Dynamic Data Management in Visual Texture Decoder of MPEG-4

David Atienza Alonso, Miguel Peon Quiros

There is a clear trend of future embedded systems in moving toward wireless, multimedia, multi-functional and ubiquitous applications. This emerges new challenges in the existing solutions on performance, power, flexibility and costs, calling for innovatio ...

Efficient secure aggregation in VANETs

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Maxime Raya, Adel Aziz

In VANETs, better communication efficiency can be achieved by sacrificing security and vice versa. But VANETs cannot get started without either of them. In this paper, we propose a set of mechanisms that can actually reconcile these two contradictory requi ...

An OCL Semantics Specified with QVT

Slavisa Markovic

Metamodeling became in the last decade a widely accepted tool to describe the (abstract) syntax of modeling languages in a concise, but yet precise way. For the description of the language's semantics, the situation is less satisfactory and formal semantic ...

Towards a Scheduling Policy For Hybrid Methods on Computational Grids

Vincent Keller, Pierre Kuonen, Tuan Anh Nguyen

In this paper, we propose a cost model for running partic- ular component based applications on a computational Grid. This cost is evaluated by a metascheduler and negotiated with the user by a broker. A specific set of applications is considered: hybrid m ...

Mesoscopic length scales for deformed nanostructures

William Curtin, Ronald Earle Miller

Defining mesoscopic length scales for deformed nanostructures requires a close coupling of theory and experiment. One approach to this is to mechanically probe single crystal nanospheres of the same size that can be evaluated computationally. This involves ...

APDB: a web server to evaluate the accuracy of sequence alignments using structural information

Philipp Bucher

The APDB webserver uses structural information to evaluate the alignment of sequences with known structures. It returns a score correlated to the overall alignment accuracy as well as a local evaluation. Any sequence alignment can be analyzed with APDB pro ...
