Detecting intra-room mobility with signal strength descriptors
We explore the problem of detecting whether a device has moved within a room. Our approach relies on comparing summaries of received signal strength measurements over time, which ...

Extraction and Recognition of Periodically Deforming Objects by Continuous, Spatio-Temporal Shape Description
We demonstrate a novel approach to modelling arbitrary temporally-deforming objects using spatio-temporal Fourier descriptors. This is a continuous boundary descriptor, which can ...
