The paper addresses the problem of improving the MPEG compression of synthetic video sequences by exploiting the knowledge about the original 3D model. Two techniques are proposed...
In the framework of a face verification system using local features and a Gaussian Mixture Model based classifier, we address the problem of non-frontal face verification (when on...
—In this paper we present a technique for improving the location performance based on the Global Positioning System (GPS) for networks of nodes in harsh environments and demonstr...

We present an adaptive, feedback-based, energy estimation model for battery-powered embedded devices such as sensor network gateways and hand-held computers. Our technique maps ha...
This paper makes two main contributions. First, it introduces Diverted Accesses, a technique that leverages the redundancy in storage systems to conserve disk energy. Second, it e...
