Multi-fidelity data exist in almost every engineering and science discipline, which can be from simulation, experiments, a hybrid form. High fidelity are usually associated with higher accuracy expense (e.g., high resolution experimental testing or finer scale simulation), while low-fidelity on the opposite side terms of cost. aggregation (MDA) this study refers to process combining two multipl...

VESPA (Vehicular Event Sharing with a mobile P2P Architecture) 1 is a system for enabling vehicles to share information in vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). The originality of VESPA is to process and disseminate any type of event (e.g., available parking spaces, accidents, emergency braking, information relative to the coordination of vehicles in emergency situations, etc.). The basic functio...

Background: Quality control for real-time spatio-temporal data is often presented from the perspective of the original owner and provider of the data, and focuses on general techniques for outlier detection or uses domain-specific knowledge and rules to assess quality. The impact of quality control on the data aggregator and redistributor is neglected. As sensor networks proliferate, multiple p...

Wikis allow for collaborators to collect information about entities. In turn, such entity information can be used for AI tasks, such as information extraction. However, these collaborators are almost exclusively human users. Allowing arbitrary software agents to act as collaborators can greatly enrich a wiki since agents can contribute structured data to complement the human-contributed, unstru...
