This paper presents a hybrid push and pull production management approach called double speed single production line (DSSPL), developed for industries that produce a large variety of slightly different items subject to highly variable demand. Because of th ...
This paper presents an indexing system for spoken audio documents. The framework is indexing and retrieval of broadcast news. The proposed indexing system applies latent semantic analysis (LSA) and self-organizing maps (SOM) to map the documents into a sem ...

One difficulty often overlooked in information retrieval systems is that search criteria themselves are often poorly defined. People describe their information needs in many different ways and frequently change their goals depending on the current results ...
In this paper we propose a new method for rendering crowds of virtual humans with dynamicallydeformed skeletons with levels of detail using two simple caching schemes for animations and geometry. Weshow how the virtual heritage project ERATO pushed for the ...
The representation of video information in terms of its content is atthe foundation of many multimedia applications, such as broadcasting,content-based information retrieval, interactive video, remotesurveillance and entertainment. In particular, object-ba ...
Semantic document annotation may be useful for many tasks. In particular, in the framework of the MDM project(http://www.issco.unige.ch/projects/im2/mdm/), topical annotation -- i.e. the annotation of document segments with tags identifying the topics disc ...
Video structuring aims at automatically finding structure in a video sequence. Occupying a key-position within video analysis, it is a fundamental step for quality indexing and browsing. As a low level video analysis, video structuring can be seen as a ser ...
The following topics are dealt with: hyperdatabases; federated information systems; relevance feedback in CBIR; Oracle Chart Builder and MapViewer; SOM-based k-nearest neighbors search; partial image retrieval; high-dimensional image indexing; design and v ...
In this article we present a novel approach of integrating textual and visual descriptors of images in a unified retrieval structure. The methodology, inspired from text retrieval and information filtering is based on Latent Semantic Indexing (LS1). ...
