Image Defocus Simulator (IDS) is an interactive research software tool developed to simulate the image sensing/formation process in a typical CCD camera system. IDS takes as input the camera parameters and the scene parameters. It produces as output a digital image of the scene as sensed by the camera. IDS consists of a number of distinct modules each implementing one step in the computational ...

This paper describes the Interactive Document Summariser (IDS), a dynamic document summarisation system, which can help users of digital libraries to access on-line documents more effectively. IDS provides dynamic control over summary characteristics, such as length and topic focus, so that changes made by the user are instantly reflected in an on-screen summary. A range of ‘summary-in-context’...

We investigated how the properties of Infant Directed Speech (IDS) and Adult Directed Speech (ADS) differed in acoustics and in speech-related articulation. Both the degree to which auditory and motion properties changed as a function of speech style (IDS vs. ADS) as well as how the correlation between properties was affected by this change were examined. The acoustic properties of 13 sentences...

Intrusion-detection systems (IDS) which were essential in computer security because of difficulties in ensuring the information systems are security free. Literature has numerous intrusion detection approaches for network security. IDS efficiency was based on the ability to differentiate between normal and harmful activity. Hence, it becomes crucial to achieve better detection rates and lower f...

IDS are becoming the logical next step for many organizations after deploying firewall technology at the network perimeter. IDS can offer protection from external users and internal attackers, where traffic doesn't go past the firewall at all. However, the following points are very important to keep in mind. 1. Strong identification and authentication: An IDS uses very good signature analysis m...

In this paper we present an Interactive Digital Storytelling (IDS) formalisation that captures the IDS logic constraints. This was implemented in a game engine and an authoring tool was created to facilitate the development of IDS based games. We created several IDS based games using the proposed engine and authoring tool. They were used as case studies in this research. We also present some of...

We first analyze the integrated density of states (IDS) of periodic Schrödinger operators on an amenable covering manifold. A criterion for the continuity of the IDS at a prescribed energy is given along with examples of operators with both continuous and discontinuous IDS’. Subsequently, alloy-type perturbations of the periodic operator are considered. The randomness may enter both via the pot...

This paper is a survey of the work, done for making an IDS fault tolerant. IDS are prone to various attacks and it becomes the natural primary target of hostile attacks with the aim of disabling the detection feature and allowing an attacker to operate without being detected. This paper suggests that intrusion detection system (IDS) must be fault tolerant; otherwise, the intruder may first subv...

Interdigitated dielectrometry sensors (IDS) are capacitive sensors investigated to precisely measure the relative permittivity ( ϵ r ) of insulating liquids. Such liquids used in the power industry exhibit a change in ϵ r as they degrade. The IDS ability to measure ϵ r in-situ can potentially reduce maintenance, increase grid stability and improve safety. Noise from external electric field sour...
