In forensic applications of speaker recognition it is necessary to be able to specify a confidence level for a decision that two sets of recordings have been produced by the same speaker (or by different speakers). Forensic phoneticians are sometimes criticized because they find it impossible to provide ‘hard’ estimates of the confidence level of their expert opinions. This paper investigates t...

In recent year, intelligent visual surveillance has become more and more important for enhanced security. In this paper, we will introduce some recent work in image and video understanding. First, we will give an introduction of the related video surveillance system in recent years, in particular, we will describe algorithms and systems developed in our group for the automatic interpretation of...

The power of Machine Learning is demonstrated for automatic interpretation well logs and determining reservoir properties volume shale, porosity, water saturation respectively tight clastic sequences. Random Forest algorithms are reputed their efficiency as they belong to a class called ensemble methods, which traditionally seen weak learners, but can be transformed into strong performers promi...

In order to provide automatic ontology-based multimedia annotation for producing linked data, scalable high-level media interpretation processes are required. In this paper we shortly describe an abductive media interpretation agent, and based on a Multimedia Content Ontology we introduce partitioning techniques for huge sets of time-related annotation assertions such that interpretation as wel...

We present an algorithm for fast automatic registration of spatially overlapping radiographs. It possesses strong robustness against noise, feature masking and feature displacement. Pivotal for this algorithm is an actual interpretation of the stitching feature instead of a simple detection. The proposed method has been evaluated on 3000 clinical radiographs and proved to be a powerful enhancem...

This paper addresses principles of discrete nonlinear control performed towards the diagnostic quality-based interpretive software optimization for cardiologybased monitoring system. Thanks to the pervasive access to wireless digital communication, distributed biosignal interpretation networks may not only optimally solve difficult medical cases, but also adapt the data acquisition, interpretat...
