Namely, we propose five metrics, that are diverse in essence, to compute the centrality of concepts in the document body...

•Extending our previous work on visual keywords, we use the concept of template-based visual keywords using MPEG-7 color descriptors. MPEG-7, also called the Multimedia Content Description Interface, has been a standard for many years. These color descriptors have the ability to characterize perceptual color similarity and need relatively low complexity operations to extract them, besides being...

In this paper the performance of two compression methods for SAR images, based on an overcomplete Independent Component Analysis and on a Compressive Sampling approach are analyzed. The two approaches are analyzed and compared on different set of real SAR COSMO-SkyMed data. Keywords-Synthetic Aperture Radar; Compression; Independent Component Analysis; Compressive Sampling

Software reusability is an essential characteristic of Component-Based Software (CBS). The component reusability is an important assess for the effective reuse of components in CBS. The attributes of reusability proposed by various researchers are studied and four of them are identified as potential factors affecting reusability. This paper proposes metric for reusability estimation of black-bo...

In this paper, we developed the serious game for elderly health as part of the healthcare service model. In order to increase the motivation of serious game as a gamification model, we composed BCI component and game component that induce the movement. So through the developed serious game, we can examine the possibility of the elderly health and looking to expand the variety of content. Keywor...
