This paper investigates the formation of color categories and color naming in a population of agents. The agents perceive and categorize color stimuli, and try to communicate about these perceived stimuli. While doing so they adapt their internal representations to be more successful at conveying color meaning in future interactions. The agents have no access to global information or to the rep...

Tone-mapping constitutes a key component within the field of high dynamic range (HDR) imaging. Its importance is manifested in the vast amount of tone-mapping methods that can be found in the literature, which are the result of an active development in the area for more than two decades. Although these can accommodate most requirements for display of HDR images, new challenges arose with the ad...

The title of this session pitting Dynamic Programming against Control Theory is misleading since dynamic programming (DP) is an integral part of the discipline of control theory. However, it is timely to discuss the relative merits of DP and other empirical solution approaches to control problems in agricultural economics, and equally importantly, how control theory can be used to pose more use...

A dynamic quality of service (QoS) mapping control scheme, which includes feedforward and feedback QoS control, is proposed for the differentiated services (DiffServ) networks in this work. To achieve reliable and consistent end-to-end video streaming with relative service differentiation, the proposed solution consists of two parts: ( I ) relative priority-based indexing and categorization of ...

This paper develops a solution to the video indexing problem by investigating a categorization method that transcribes audio content through Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) combined with Dynamic Contextualization (DC). The suggested approach applies genome pattern matching algorithms with computational summarization to build a database infrastructure that provides an indexed summary of the o...
