While sensor networks are going to be deployed in diverse application specific contexts, one unifying view is to treat them essentially as distributed databases. The simplest mech...
ion when we annotate content. This therefore requires us to investigate and model video semantics. Because of the type and volume of data, general-purpose approaches are likely to ...
We outline the rationale and preliminary results of using the State Context Property (SCOP) formalism, originally developed as a generalization of quantum mechanics, to describe t...
Recognition of human actions is usually addressed in the scope of video interpretation. Meanwhile, common human actions such as "reading a book", "playing a guitar&...
Applications must scale well to make efficient use of even medium-scale parallel systems. Because scaling problems are often difficult to diagnose, there is a critical need for sc...
