BioJADE: A Design and Simulation Tool for Synthetic Biological Systems
(2004-05-28)
The next generations of both biological engineering and computer engineering demand that control be exerted at the molecular level. Creating, characterizing and controlling synthetic biological systems may provide us with ...
How People Re-find Information When the Web Changes
(2004-06-18)
This paper investigates how people return to information in a dynamic information environment. For example, a person might want to return to Web content via a link encountered earlier on a Web page, only to learn that the ...
Determining articulator configuration in voiced stop consonants by matching time-domain patterns in pitch periods
(2005-01-28)
In this thesis I will be concerned with linking the observed speechsignal to the configuration of articulators.Due to the potentially rapid motion of the articulators, the speechsignal can be highly non-stationary. The ...
Using computational models to study texture representations in the human visual system.
(2005-02-07)
Traditionally, human texture perception has been studied using artificial textures made of random-dot patterns or abstract structured elements. At the same time, computer algorithms for the synthesis of natural textures ...
Discovering object categories in image collections
(2005-02-25)
Given a set of images containing multiple object categories,we seek to discover those categories and their image locations withoutsupervision. We achieve this using generative modelsfrom the statistical text literature: ...
Functional Differential Geometry
(2005-02-02)
Differential geometry is deceptively simple. It is surprisingly easyto get the right answer with unclear and informal symbol manipulation.To address this problem we use computer programs to communicate aprecise understanding ...
Improving 802.11 Range with Forward Error Correction
(2005-02-24)
The ISO/IEC 8802-11:1999(E) specification uses a 32-bit CRC for error detection and whole-packet retransmissions for recovery. In long-distance orhigh-interference links where the probability of a bit error is high,this ...
Automated Audio-visual Activity Analysis
(2005-09-20)
Current computer vision techniques can effectively monitor gross activities in sparse environments. Unfortunately, visual stimulus is often not sufficient for reliably discriminating between many types of activity. In ...
Collective Choice with Uncertain Domain Moldels
(2005-08-16)
When groups of individuals make choices among several alternatives, the most compelling social outcome is the Condorcet winner, namely the alternative beating all others in a pair-wise contest. Obviously the Condorcet ...
LabelMe: a database and web-based tool for image annotation
(2005-09-08)
Research in object detection and recognition in cluttered scenes requires large image collections with ground truth labels. The labels should provide information about the object classes present in each image, as well as ...
