This report presents the implementation of a communication interface to bridge the gap between the semantic 3D city models of the Geographical information system (GIS) database and the scenarios creation environment for decision‐making in the conceptual ph ...
Despite an increasing interest in speaker recognition technologies, a significant obstacle still hinders their wide deployment --- their high vulnerability to spoofing or presentation attacks. These attacks can be easy to perform. For instance, if an attac ...
Despite commonly reported potentials for emission reduction and efficiency increase, industrial heat pumps have yet to reach wide-scale employment in non-refrigeration appli- cations. The bottlenecks are identified as a general scepticism from process oper ...
Nearest neighbor searching of large databases in high-dimensional spaces is inherently difficult due to the curse of dimensionality. A flavor of approximation is, therefore, necessary to practically solve the problem of nearest neighbor search. In this pap ...
The circular economy concept, as presented by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation (EMF), together with many other organisations, could be threatened by opportunists and fantasists. In essence, anyone with an aversion to seek to scientifically clarify the presen ...
As of today, programming has never been so accessible. Yet, it remains a challenge for end-users: students, non-technical employees, experts in their domains outside of computer science, and so on. With its forecast potential for solving problems by only o ...
Edge computing promises lower latency interactions for clients operating at the edge by shifting computation away from Data Centers to Points of Presence which are more abundant and located geographically closer to end users. However, most commercially ava ...
We are currently witnessing a shift towards the use of high-level programming languages for systems development. These approaches collide with the traditional wisdom which calls for using low-level languages for building efficient software systems. This sh ...
Research in the area of automatic speaker verification (ASV) has been advanced enough for the industry to start using ASV systems in practical applications. However, these systems are highly vulnerable to spoofing or presentation attacks, limiting their wi ...
Abstraction without regret refers to the vision of using high-level programming languages for systems development without experiencing a negative impact on performance. A database system designed according to this vision offers both increased productivity ...
