We present an approach to create hyper-links between video segments that contain objects of interest, based on video structuring, object definition, and stochastic object localization in the video structure. Localization is formulated in the Metric Mixture ...
In creating Terms of Reference, the Group has to consider the scope of the meaning of long-life pavements. It is suggested that this should not be ‘life’ related but based on the concept that a long-life pavement is one that is heavily trafficked, and is d ...
While objects often constitute the desired level of access for browsing and retrieval in video databases, an inherent problem for on-line object definition is that of model construction from a few examples. In this paper, we present a probabilistic methodo ...
The consumption of primary energy is often used to compare energy systems from a sustainability viewpoint at regional, national or even world level. For such comparisons to be “fair” and meaningful, this implies however to define primary energies in a cohe ...
In this paper we address the problem of defining a measure of diversity for a population of individuals whose genome can be subjected to major reorganizations during the evolutionary process. To this end, we introduce a measure of diversity for populations ...
Tracking speakers in multiparty conversations constitutes a fundamental task for automatic meeting analysis. In this paper, we present a probabilistic approach to jointly track the location and speaking activity of multiple speakers in a multisensor meetin ...
This paper is conceptual in nature: in it, we seek to identify the current trends of State transformation, combine them with the changes in the new information and communication technologies, and extrapolate this combination into the near future. More prec ...
Tracking speakers in multiparty conversations constitutes a fundamental task for automatic meeting analysis. In this paper, we present a probabilistic approach to jointly track the location and speaking activity of multiple speakers in a multisensor meetin ...
{What is a Negative Result?} In a sense, well-designed experiments never have a completely negative result, since there is always the opportunity to learn something. In fact, unexpected results by definition provide the most information. Conventionally, ne ...
In this thesis we address the problem of safe substitutability in mobile component-oriented formalisms. We try to give a solution for different definitions of "safe" through a new notion of subtyping based on flexibility and observation. The aim is to have ...
