Wideband codecs such as AMR-WB or EVS are widely used in (mobile) speech communication. Evaluation of coded quality is often performed subjectively by an absolute category rating (ACR) listening test. However, the ACR test impractical for online monitoring communication networks. Perceptual evaluation (PESQ) one metrics instrumentally predicting results PESQ algorithm requires original referenc...

The topic of non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) has seen a significant increase in research interest over the past decade, which led to performance these systems. Nowadays, NILM systems are used numerous applications, particular by energy companies that provide users with an advanced management service different consumption. These mainly based on artificial intelligence algorithms allow disag...

This work presents a framework for updating an estimate of probability distribution, arising from uncertainty propagation using Non-intrusive Polynomial Chaos (NIPC), with scarce experimental measurements Quantity Interest (QoI). In recent years much has been directed towards developing methods combining models different accuracies in order to propagate uncertainty, but the problem improving pr...

Capturing 3-D interaction in a non-intrusive and natural way presents some obstacles. A digital camera has some appealing attributes to overcome such problems despite the fact that pictures taken by a camera have no inherent depth information. Several computer vision techniques exist to obtain 3-D information from pictures. Some of these methods tend to be expensive while others are not fully 3...
