In scientific research, spectroscopy and diffraction experimental techniques are widely used and produce huge amounts of spectral data. Learning patterns from spectra is critical during these experiments. This provides ...

The last decade bore witness to increased development of time-of-flight (ToF) camera hardware, algorithms, and applications, particularly 3-D measurement in the fields of human-robot collaboration. Their advantage is in ...

Video delivery is exploiting 5G networks to enable higher server consolidation and deployment flexibility. Performance optimization is also a key target in such network systems. We present a multi-objective optimization ...

Detecting morphed face images has become an important task to maintain the trust in automated verification systems based on facial images, e.g., at automated border control gates. Deep Neural Network (DNN)-based detectors ...

The availability of big data in materials science offers new routes for analyzing materials properties and functions and achieving scientific understanding. Finding structure in these data that is not directly visible by ...

The Social Book Search (SBS) Lab investigates book search in scenarios where users search with more than just a query, and look for more than objective metadata. Real-world information needs are generally complex, yet ...

While the importance of multilingual access to information systems is undoubted, few truly operational systems exist and can serve as examples. This dissertation addresses the issue of what the user expectations and the ...

Background: Computerized cognitive training has been proposed as a potential solution to age-related cognitive decline.However, published findings from evaluation studies of cognitive training games, including metastudies ...

Multilayer graphs consist of several graphs, called layers, where the vertex set of all layers is the same but each layer has an individual edge set. They are motivated by real-world problems where entities (vertices) are ...

Research on the robustness of networks, and in particular the Internet, has gained critical importance in recent decades because more and more individuals, societies and firms rely on this global network infrastructure for ...
