In this paper, we proposing a secure and privacy-preserving opportunistic computing framework, called SPOC, for m-Healthcare emergency. With SPOC, smart phone resources including computing power and energy can be opportunistically gathered to process the computingintensive personal health information (PHI) during m-Healthcare emergency with minimal privacy disclosure. In specific, to leverage t...

Small, body-mounted video cameras enable a diierent style of wearable computing interface. As processing power increases, a wearable computer can spend more time observing its user to provide serendipitous information , manage interruptions and tasks, and predict future needs without being directly commanded by the user. This paper introduces an assistant for playing the real-space game Patrol....

We report on the progress of current work regarding the automatic recognition of percussive instruments embedded in audio excerpts of performances on drum sets. Content-based transformation of audio drum tracks and loops requires the identification of the instruments that are played in the sound file. Some supervised and unsupervised techniques are examined in this paper, and classification res...

The CANDELA project aims at realizing a system for real-time image processing in traffic and surveillance applications. The system performs segmentation, labels the extracted blobs and tracks their movements in the scene. Performance evaluation of such a system is a major challenge since no standard methods exist and the criteria for evaluation are highly subjective. This paper proposes a perfo...
