A Computational Framework For Human-Centered Multimodal Data Analysis
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2012-04-11)Human-Centered computing defines a field of study in which computational processes affect the human being, either through ubiquitous and pervasive use of devices or any effect that improves the human condition. Human-Centered ... -
Computer Vision Methods for Sign Language and Cognitive Evaluation through Physical Tasks
(2020-08-05)Analyzing human motion is vital for a multitude of tasks including human-computer interaction, sign language recognition, and the assessment of cognitive disorders. Providing automatic assessments for cognitive disorders ... -
Computing Best Coverage Path In The Presence Of Obstacles In Wireless Sensor Networks
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Given a set S = {S1,...,Sn} of n homogeneous wireless sensors deployed in a two dimensional area, a source point s and a destination point t, the least protected point p along a path (s,t) is that point such that the ... -
Concept-based Search Using Parallel Query Expansion
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)We address the problem of irrelevant results for short queries on Web search engines. Short queries fail to provide sufficient context to disambiguate possible meanings associated with the search terms resulting in a set ... -
Concurrent Polyglot: An Extensible Compiler Framework
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2011-07-14)We have today crossed the threshold of increasing clock frequencies as the dominant solution to faster computing, and it is imperative for software developers to be able to think in the concurrent and parallel paradigm. ... -
Congestion Control For Networks In Challenged Environments
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2008-09-17)Congestion occurs when resource demands exceed the capacity of a network. The goal of congestion control is to use the network as efficiently as possible. While extensive efforts have been devoted to providing optimization ... -
Context Aware Energy Conservation In Pervasive Computing Environments
(Computer Science & Engineering, 2007-08-23)Extending battery lifetime is one of the most critical and challenging problems in mobile systems. When the mobile device sounds a low battery alarm, the user is given an ultimatum to quickly find a power source or suspend ... -
