In this work, we demonstrate an automatic video annotation system which can provide users with the representative keywords for new videos. The system explores the hierarchical concept model and multiple feature model to improve the effectiveness of annotation, which consists of two components: a SVM classifier to ascertain the category; and a multiple feature model to label the keywords. We imp...

This paper introduces the Sensapp platform, a semantic and OGCbased sensor application platform to enable users to register, annotate, search, visualize, and compose OGC-based sensors and services for creating addedvalue services and applications. Functionalities of Sensapp such as sensor registration, sensor data visualization, visual composition and generation of executable service compositio...

This paper aims to investigate the performance of a system consisting of plethysmographic sensors used to measure the human pulse (or heart rate), and ZigBee wireless networks used to collect the data in view of processing and storing. A demo system build around a MICROCHIP development kit (PICDEM Z) is described. Some conclusion derived on the basis of the observations obtained during the impl...

We present an online, interactive tool for writing and presenting interactive geometry demos suitable for classroom demonstrations. Code for the demonstrations is written in JavaScript using p5.js, a JavaScript library based on Processing. 1998 ACM Subject Classification F.2.2 Nonnumerical Algorithms and Problems – Geometrical problems and computations

From October 12 to 17, 2008 the Dagstuhl Seminar 08421 Uncertainty Management in Information Systems was held in Schloss Dagstuhl Leibniz Center for Informatics. The abstracts of the working group reports, the plenary and session talks given during the seminar as well as those of the shown demos are put together in this paper.

We discuss the CharToon system by which one can interactively construct parametrized 2D drawings and a set of time curves to animate the drawings. The system has been implemented in JAVA and used to produce and animate 2D cartoon faces. The variety and potential usage of such faces is to illustrated by a series of demos.

Automatic digital inpainting is a challenge but interesting research area. This demonstration presents a tool, which uses a color interpolation mechanism to restore damaged images. The mechanism checks the variation of pixel blocks and restores pixels using different strategies. We test more than 1000 images, including photos, paintings, and cartoon drawings. The proposed system is also availab...

Many research projects are publicly available but rarely used due to the difficulty of building and installing them. As web browsers have grown in popularity, they have become an excellent platform for offering demos. We propose that researchers compile their projects to JavaScript and put them online to make them more accessible to first-time users and thus facilitate large-scale online usabil...

We report research on gestural control of digital music, currently performed at the University of California Irvine. Experiments with various motion capture systems are performed, including single video camera systems and a 3D optical motion capture system (Vicon 8). We present a series of demos of various approaches for motion analysis and gesture-to-sound mapping.
