Internet streaming applications should be congestion controlled and quality adaptive. Although the need for adaptive Internet streaming applications has been recognized, no comprehensive architecture that properly incorporates congestion control mechanism has been presented. Large scale deployment of non-congestion controlled streaming applications could endanger stability of the Internet. In t...

Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) tries to predict the polarity of a given document with respect to a given aspect entity. While neural network architectures have been successful in predicting the overall polarity of sentences, aspectspecific sentiment analysis still remains as an open problem. In this paper, we propose a novel method for integrating aspect information into the neural mode...

Streaming high-fidelity audio over networks with both bit errors and packet erasures is becoming increasingly important due to the emerging of wireless Internet. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end architecture for scalable audio streaming over wireless Internet. Considering the characteristic of scalable audio, a novel layered product code is presented to handle bit errors and packet losse...

We present a method for detecting common human actions in video, common to athletics and surveillance, using intuitive sketches and motion cues. The framework presented in this paper is an automated end-to-end system which (1) interprets the sketch input, (2) generates a query video based on motion cues, and (3) incorporates a new contentbased action descriptor for matching. We apply our method...

 ABSTRACT Background: The pancreatojejunostomy has notoriously been known to carry a high rate of operative complications, morbidity and mortality, mainly due to anastomotic leak and ensuing septic complications. Objective: In order to decrease anastomotic leak and its attendant morbidity and mortality in operations requiring a pancreato-jejunal anastomosis, and also in order to simplify the op...
