Social awareness in pervasive communities for collaborative work
Future pervasive environments will take into consideration physical and digital social relations. Nowadays it is important use to collective intelligence, where the interpretation of context information can be harnessed as input for context-aware applications, especially for group collaboration. The use of collective intelligence represents new possibilities but also new challenges in terms of collective information for adaptability and personalization in intelligent environments. This paper presents a collaborative context-aware framework focusing on social matching capabilities for session formation in collaborative activities
Measure What Should be Measured: Progress and Challenges in Compressive Sensing
Is compressive sensing overrated? Or can it live up to our expectations? What
will come after compressive sensing and sparsity? And what has Galileo Galilei
got to do with it? Compressive sensing has taken the signal processing
community by storm. A large corpus of research devoted to the theory and
numerics of compressive sensing has been published in the last few years.
Moreover, compressive sensing has inspired and initiated intriguing new
research directions, such as matrix completion. Potential new applications
emerge at a dazzling rate. Yet some important theoretical questions remain
open, and seemingly obvious applications keep escaping the grip of compressive
sensing. In this paper I discuss some of the recent progress in compressive
sensing and point out key challenges and opportunities as the area of
compressive sensing and sparse representations keeps evolving. I also attempt
to assess the long-term impact of compressive sensing
Active management of multi-service networks.
Future multiservice networks will be extremely large and complex. Novel management solutions will be required to keep the management costs reasonable. Active networking enables management to be delegated to network users as a large set of independent small scale management systems. A novel architecture for an active network based management solution for multiservice networking is presented
Single-shot compressed ultrafast photography: a review
Compressed ultrafast photography (CUP) is a burgeoning single-shot computational imaging technique that provides an imaging speed as high as 10 trillion frames per second and a sequence depth of up to a few hundred frames. This technique synergizes compressed sensing and the streak camera technique to capture nonrepeatable ultrafast transient events with a single shot. With recent unprecedented technical developments and extensions of this methodology, it has been widely used in ultrafast optical imaging and metrology, ultrafast electron diffraction and microscopy, and information security protection. We review the basic principles of CUP, its recent advances in data acquisition and image reconstruction, its fusions with other modalities, and its unique applications in multiple research fields
Two-photon-induced photoconductivity enhancement in semiconductor microcavities: a theoretical investigation
We describe a detailed theoretical investigation of two-photon absorption photoconductivity in semiconductor microcavities. We show that high enhancement (by a factor of >10, 000) of the nonlinear response can be obtained as a result of the microcavity effect. We discuss in detail the design and performance (dynamic range, speed) of such a device with the help of the example of an AlGaAs/GaAs microcavity operating at 900 nm. This device shows promise for low-intensity, fast autocorrelation and demultiplexing applications
A context-aware framework for CSCW applications in enterprise environments
Future pervasive environments will take into consideration physical and digital social relationships. Nowadays it is
important to use collective intelligence, where the interpretation of context information can be harnessed as input for
context-aware applications, especially for group collaboration. For collaborative applications this represents
opportunities, but also new challenges in terms of using collective information for adaptability and personalization in
pervasive environments. This paper presents the challenges in design and development of a context-aware framework
CSCW supporting pro-behaviour capabilities in pervasive communities
Salient Object Detection via Augmented Hypotheses
In this paper, we propose using \textit{augmented hypotheses} which consider
objectness, foreground and compactness for salient object detection. Our
algorithm consists of four basic steps. First, our method generates the
objectness map via objectness hypotheses. Based on the objectness map, we
estimate the foreground margin and compute the corresponding foreground map
which prefers the foreground objects. From the objectness map and the
foreground map, the compactness map is formed to favor the compact objects. We
then derive a saliency measure that produces a pixel-accurate saliency map
which uniformly covers the objects of interest and consistently separates fore-
and background. We finally evaluate the proposed framework on two challenging
datasets, MSRA-1000 and iCoSeg. Our extensive experimental results show that
our method outperforms state-of-the-art approaches.Comment: IJCAI 2015 pape
