一种基于有效维聚类的视频镜头索引算法

随着多媒体信息技术的迅速发展,有效的视频索引技术成为视频数据研究领域中的一个热点课题.面向视频镜头内容分析和索引技术,提出了一种基于聚类结果的视频镜头索引算法.该算法首先根据数据集的分布特征,提取出能够表达镜头高维特征向量的有效维,并在有效维子空间中,利用一种无监督的逐维聚类算法对镜头进行聚类分析.之后提出关键维的概念,并结合聚类分析的结果设计了一种全新的镜头表达形式.最后在B 树索引结构上实现对镜头的索引.在K最邻近查询算法(SCR)中定义了下界距离,有效地过滤了查询空间,缩小了查询范围.实验结果表明,该索引算法简单且灵活,是对现有视频镜头索引结构的有效补充.     

VAR-Tree--一种新的高维数据索引结构

在多媒体信息检索和数据挖掘等应用领域,实现高维矢量的K近邻搜索是非常具有挑战性的研究课题,为此人们提出了很多种索引结构．然而,现有研究成果表明,随着矢量维数的增加,基于树状索引结构的查询性能急剧下降,例如在R-Tree,X-Tree和SS-Tree中都会出现“维数灾难”．为此,又引入近似压缩的思想,即通过压缩数据来减少查询过程中的磁盘读写代价,例如VA-File等,不过,VA-File没有对近似矢量数据做任何的排序或层次处理．提出了一种新的索引结构VAR-Tree,它将VA-File与R-Tree有机结合起来,用R-Tree管理和组织VA-File中的近似数据,并用已提出的R-Tree类相似查询算法实现基于VAR-Tree的查询．实验结果表明,VAR-Tree较好地提高了检索性能．     

基于Hilbert-R树分级索引的时空查询算法

基于双向参考索引的大规模人体运动数据库的检索

因为运动特征数据的高维复杂性,采用非线性的Isomap流形学习的降维算法来对运动特征数据进行降维,为了能让Isomap方法处理训练数据集之外的数据,通过学习主成分特征核函数逼近降维结果,以扩展传统Isomap的局限性.在运动数据降维之后,为大规模运动捕获数据库建立一种双向参考索引(DRI),在检索过程中索引用来排除绝大部分与查询例子无关的运动数据,这样运动检索中的相似度的计算通过索引被缩小到一个小范围候选数据集合中,避免了大量不必要的匹配开销,从而提高了检索的效率.

View-based model-driven architecture for enhancing maintainability of data access services

In modern service-oriented architectures, database access is done by a special type of services, the so-called data access services (DAS). Though, particularly in data-intensive applications, using and developing DAS are very common today, the link between the DAS and their implementation, e.g. a layer of data access objects (DAOs) encapsulating the database queries, still is not sufficiently elaborated, yet. As a result, as the number of DAS grows, finding the desired DAS for reuse and/or associated documentation can become an impossible task. In this paper we focus on bridging this gap between the DAS and their implementation by presenting a view-based, model-driven data access architecture (VMDA) managing models of the DAS, DAOs and database queries in a queryable manner. Our models support tailored views of different stakeholders and are scalable with all types of DAS implementations. In this paper we show that our view-based and model driven architecture approach can enhance software development productivity and maintainability by improving DAS documentation. Moreover, our VMDA opens a wide range of applications such as evaluating DAS usage for DAS performance optimization. Furthermore, we provide tool support and illustrate the applicability of our VMDA in a large-scale case study. Finally, we quantitatively prove that our approach performs with acceptable response times.     

A pragmatic multi-method investigation of discrepant technological events: Coping,attributions, and ‘accidental’ learning

Discrepant technological events or situations that entail a problem, a misunderstanding or a difficulty with the Information Technology (IT) being employed, are common in the workplace, and can lead to frustration and avoidance behaviors. Little is known, however, about how individuals cope with these events. This paper examines these events by using a multi-method pragmatic approach informed by coping theory. The results of two studies – a critical incident study and an experiment – serve to build and test, respectively, a theoretical model that posits that individuals use a variety of strategies when dealing with these events: they experience negative emotions, make external attributions, and adopt engagement coping strategies directed at solving the event, eventually switching to a disengagement coping strategy when they feel they have no control over the situation. Furthermore, users’ efforts may result in ‘accidental’ learning as they try to overcome the discrepant IT events through engagement coping. The paper ends with a discussion of the results in light of existing literature, future opportunities for research, and implications for practice.     

The Distributed Time-Triggered Simulation Scheme: Core Principles and Supporting Execution Engine

Distributed real-time simulation is a young technology field but its practice is under increasing demands. In recent years the author and his collaborators have been establishing a new approach called the distributed time-triggered simulation (DTS) scheme which is conceptually simple and easy to use but widely applicable. The concept was initiated in the course of developing a new-generation object-oriented real-time programming scheme called the time-triggered message-triggered object (TMO) programming scheme. Some fundamental issues inherent in distributed real-time simulation that were learned during recent experimental studies are discussed along with some approaches for resolving the issues. An execution engine developed to support both the TMOs engaged in control computation and the TMOs engaged in DTS is also discussed along with its possible extensions that will enable significantly larger-scale DTSs.
