VideoQuest: Managing Large-Scale Aerial Video Database Through Automated Content Extraction
In this paper, we introduce an aerial video management and exploitation system named VideoQuest that manages large-scale aerial video database through automated video processing and content extraction.

Runtime Certification
We outline a suitable framework, in which the basis for certification is changed from compliance with standards to the construction of explicit goals, evidence, and arguments (generally called an “assurance…

A Semantic Web Reasoner for Rules, Equations and Constraints
We describe a reasoner for OWL ontologies and SWRL policies used on cognitive radios to control dynamic spectrum access.

Collaborative Effects of Mobile Sensor Network Localization through Distributed Fusion of Multi-Modal Navigations
This paper addresses the problem of localizing both absolute and relative 3-D positions of mobile sensor network nodes by fusing inertial measurements and radio frequency (RF) ranging measurements.

Color Enhancement in Image Fusion
We propose an innovative approach to enhance the color in image fusion. We propose a gamma correction function to the normalized color components.

Visual Odometry System Using Multiple Stereo Cameras and Inertial Measurement Unit
In this paper, we present a robust method that addresses these challenges using a human wearable system with two pairs of backward and forward looking stereo cameras together with an…

Precise Visual Navigation Using Multi-Stereo Vision and Landmark Matching
In this paper, we propose a set of techniques which greatly reduce the long term drift and also improve its robustness to many failure conditions.

On-The-Move Independently Moving Target Detection
This paper describes a system for automatically detecting potential targets (that pop-up or move into view) and to cue the operator to potential threats. We present a 3D approach for…

Preceding Vehicle Trajectory Prediction by Multi-Cue Integration
In this paper we describe an approach to detect and predict the driving trajectory of a preceding vehicle on highway. In particular, we focus on detecting and predicting the changing…

Reduced Resolution Residual Coding for H.264-Based Compression System
This paper describes a macroblock-based mixed resolution video encoding system. By reducing the spatial resolution of some macroblock residuals intelligently, our preliminary experiments show up to 20% improvement in video…

The Use of Word N-grams and Parts of Speech for Hierarchical Cluster Language Modeling
We present extensions to the work of backoff hierarchical class n-gram language modeling of Zitouni et al. (2003) by studying the efficacy of exploring the use of parts of speech…
