Handheld Face Identification Technology in a Pervasive Computing Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe initial efforts at implementing a flexible, modular face identification framework in the context of a pervasive computing environment including handheld computers. Currently, the handheld is used for image capture, while all computation is performed on a back-end server, though other possibilities are discussed. Handheld face identification is difficult due to limitations in processing power and variations in lighting and background conditions. Initial experimental data are presented, showing recognition accuracy of 95.6% for a three user domain, with 1.7 second identification latency. Work is underway to improve both accuracy and scalability.

متن کاملA context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...

متن کاملMobility in hospital work: towards a pervasive computing hospital environment
Handheld computers are increasingly being used by hospital workers. With the integration of wireless networks into hospital information systems, handheld computers can provide the basis for a pervasive computing hospital environment; to develop this designers need empirical information to understand how hospital workers interact with information while moving around. To characterise the medical ...
