Facial expression modeling using component AAM models-Gaming applications
(2009)In this paper we provide preliminary results on a new modeling approach for improved determination of facial expressions from a low-resolution video stream. An initial proof-of-concept using an extension of an Active ... -
Fast A/V channel switching on a wireless home network
(IEEE, 2005-11-21)A method of enabling fast switching between multimedia streams on an 802.11g network is described. This technique is particularly useful for A/V home network applications where it is desirable to simulate the fast channel ... -
FPGA based stereo imaging system with applications in computer gaming
(IEEE, 2009-10-23)A real-time stereo imaging system is described. It incorporates dual image acquisition chains on a single FPGA device and is able to provide real-time synchronized video output from twin CMOS imaging sensors. The platform ... -
An FPGA-based stereoscopic camera - electronic design tools and techniques
(IEEE, 2010-08-05)Electronic design tools and techniques for the implementation of a stereoscopic camera based on an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) are presented. The stages of an IPP (Image Processing Pipeline) are presented together ... -
Gamma band neural stimulation in humans and the promise of a new modality to prevent and treat Alzheimer's disease
(IOS Press, 2018-07-19)Existing treatments for Alzheimer s Disease have questionable efficacy with a need for research into new and more effective therapies to both treat and possibly prevent the condition. This review examines a novel therapeutic ... -
Getting more from your datasets: Data augmentation, annotation and generative techniques
(XPERI Inc., 2018-05-18)Deep Learning for embedded vision requires large datasets. Indeed the more varied training data is, the more accurate the trained network. But, acquiring and accurately annotating datasets costs time and money. This talk ... -
Haemodynamic performance of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) during recovery from total hip arthroplasty
(2013-03-05)Background: Patients post total hip arthroplasty (THA) remain at high risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) during the recovery period following surgery despite the availability of effective pharmacological and ... -
Half-face detector for enhanced performance of flash-eye filter
(IEEE, 2013-01-12)Red-eye and flash-eye defects in still photography continue to cause problems for digital imaging devices. New variants of flash-eye defects have appeared as cameras and cameras sub-systems get smaller in size. This paper ... -

Hardware implementation of a real-time 3D video acquisition system
(IEEE, 2010-07-15)An implementation of a real-time 3D video acquisition system on a single FPGA is presented. Our approach is based on the use of stereo image sensors and can display real-time 3D video when combined with shutter glasses. ... -
Home gateway architecture for generic multimedia services
(1999)Development of a prototype residential gateway based on low-cost off-the-shelf PC components is described. The goal is to show how such a gateway might operate to satisfy the requirements of a broad spectrum of customer ... -
Home network infrastructure for handheld/wearable appliances
(IEEE, 2002)A server infrastructure allows wireless wearable appliances or portable handsets to access consumer services offered via the server. Services are accessed via a Universal Home Services Interface (UHSI) which is ... -
Home networking middleware infrastructure for improved audio/video appliance functionality and interoperability
(IEEE, 2006-05-15)A software architecture is described which significantly improves the accessability of multiple home appliances on a heterogeneous home network. Methods for aggregating devices into virtual clusters on a local middleware ... -
Human centred design considerations for connected health devices for the older adult
(MDPI, 2014-06-04)Connected health devices are generally designed for unsupervised use, by non-healthcare professionals, facilitating independent control of the individuals own healthcare. Older adults are major users of such devices ... -
Hybrid Semi-Parallel Deep Neural Networks (SPDNN) – example methodologies and use cases
(XPERI Inc., 2018-05-23)Deep neural networks (DNNs) are typically trained on specific datasets, optimized with particular discriminating capabilities. Often several different DNN topologies are developed solving closely related aspects of a ... -
Hybrid video-frame pre-processing architecture for HD-video
(IEEE, 2011)As imaging devices begin to support full frame rate video at 720p and higher resolutions image processing algorithms which operate on full image frames become severely challenged due to both the processing costs of operating ... -
Image processing techniques to detect and filter objectionable images based on skin tone and shape recognition
(IEEE, 2001-06-09)In this paper we describe image-processing techniques to detect and categorize potentially objectionable images based solely on the image content. The techniques include a novel method of matching skin tones based on a ... -
