Tracking interacting targets in multi-modal sensors
(2009)
Object tracking is one of the fundamental tasks in various applications such as surveillance,
sports, video conferencing and activity recognition. Factors such as occlusions,
illumination changes and limited field of ...
Interactive real-time musical systems
(2009)
This thesis focuses on the development of automatic accompaniment systems.
We investigate previous systems and look at a range of approaches
that have been attempted for the problem of beat tracking. Most beat
trackers ...
Applying Bayesian networks to model uncertainty in project scheduling
(2009)
Risk Management has become an important part of Project Management. In spite
of numerous advances in the field of Project Risk Management (PRM), handling
uncertainty in complex projects still remains a challenge. An ...
Cooperative control of relay based cellular networks
(2009)
The increasing popularity of wireless communications and the higher data
requirements of new types of service lead to higher demands on wireless networks.
Relay based cellular networks have been seen as an effective way ...
A hierarchal framework for recognising activities of daily life
(2009)
In today’s working world the elderly who are dependent can sometimes be
neglected by society. Statistically, after toddlers it is the elderly who are observed
to have higher accident rates while performing everyday ...
Ultra wideband gigabit powerline communication
(2009)
Powerline Communication (PLC) has long been established for low
data rate applications by the electric supply companies. Since 1991,
the European CENELEC standard EN 50065 has ruled the use of 3
- 148.5KHz frequency ...
Computer Models for Musical Instrument Identification
(2006)
A particular aspect in the perception of sound is concerned with what is commonly
termed as texture or timbre. From a perceptual perspective, timbre is what allows us
to distinguish sounds that have similar pitch and ...
QoS in Node-disjoint Routing for Ad Hoc Networks
(2009)
A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of mobile nodes that
can communicate with each other without using any fixed infrastructure.
It is necessary for MANETs to have efficient routing protocol and quality
of ...
A semantic and agent-based approach to support information retrieval, interoperability and multi-lateral viewpoints for heterogeneous environmental databases
(2006)
Data stored in individual autonomous databases often needs to be combined and
interrelated. For example, in the Inland Water (IW) environment monitoring domain,
the spatial and temporal variation of measurements of ...
Antenna Study and Design for Ultra Wideband Communication Applications
(2006)
Since the release by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of a bandwidth of
7.5GHz (from 3.1GHz to 10.6GHz) for ultra wideband (UWB) wireless communications,
UWB is rapidly advancing as a high data rate wireless ...
