In the traditional mixture of Gaussians background model, the generating process of each pixel is modeled as a mixture of Gaussians over color. Unfortunately, this model performs ...
Congestion control for compressed audio is a nontrivial pursuit. Audio perception is highly susceptible to disturbance in temporal quality. We recently proposed and implemented a ...
Fingerprint individuality study deals with the crucial problem of the discriminative power of fingerprints for recognizing people. In this paper, we present a novel fingerprint in...
A quorum system is a collection of sets (quorums) of servers, where any two quorums intersect. Quorumbased protocols underly modern edge-computing architectures and throughput-sca...
Consider a collection of random variables attached to the vertices of a graph. The reconstruction problem requires to estimate one of them given ‘far away’ observations. Sever...
