Music information retrieval (MIR), an interdisciplinary field involving the classifying or detection of structure in music, is essential for processing, indexing, querying and making recommendations from the vast amount of musical data available on the web and in audio library collections. Deep...

Thesis addresses two main problems of Free Viewpoint TV: generation of arbitrary viewpoint in real-time and its delivery to end-user. For the first problem a GPU-based algorithm capable of generating free viewpoints from a network of fixed HD video cameras was developed. We used a space-sweep...

Frameworks and libraries provide functionality through Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). Developers might misuse these APIs because the library's usage rules are often implicit, undocumented, or not readily available in the form of checkable rules. At the same time, manually writing...

Displaying believable emotional reactions in virtual characters is required in applications ranging from virtual-reality trainers to video games. Manual scripting is the most frequently used method and enables an arbitrarily high fidelity of the emotions displayed. However, scripting is labor...

A very common form of collaborative work involves people working on shared resources, such as, for example, co-producing a project report, including editing text, cross-referencing citations and validating the budget or reviewing and authorizing different aspects of a loan application. All these...

RP-CDMA is a wireless multiple access technique that utilizes multiple spreading codes and a multiuser detector to enhance link reliability and performance. We propose a simple MAC protocol on top of the RP-CDMA Phy and apply it to the multihop ad hoc network model. In addition to a MAC, we...

This thesis is concerned with a measure of perceptual aliasing in image descriptors. Perceptual aliasing occurs when the one-to-one mapping relations between world states (objects) and their representation (descriptors) are not maintained. Our method measures the discriminating power of an image...

Data augmentation is a strong tool for enhancing the performance of deep learning models using different techniques to increase both the quantity and diversity of training data. Cutout was previously proposed, in the context of image classification, as a simple regularization technique that...

Visual tracking serves an important role in a wide variety of applications like video surveillance, robotic manipulation and augmented reality. The goal of tracking in the last two cases here is to efficiently and accurately locate the object in each frame of an image sequence/stream, with the...

Density-based clustering methods extract high density clusters which are separated by regions of lower density. HDBSCAN* is an existing algorithm for producing a density-based cluster hierarchy. To obtain clusters from this hierarchy it includes an instance of FOSC(Framework for Optimal Selection...
