Olfactory stimuli are experienced primarily in terms of their hedonic tone and the assessment of olfactory hedonic estimates is a prevalent task in scientific and industrial contexts. However, measuring conditions are poorly standardized. Our study aims to fill this gap, focusing on the influence of anchor stimuli on olfactory hedonic evaluations, frequency of anchor presentation, and temporal ...

In this paper, we propose an anchor modeling scheme where instead of conventional “anchor” speakers, we use eigenvectors that span the Eigen-voice space. The computational advantage of conventional Anchor-modeling based speaker identification system comes from representing all speakers in a space spanned by a small number of anchor speakers instead of having separate speaker models. The convent...

Discovering the malicious or vulnerable anchor node is an essential problem in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In wireless sensor networks, anchor nodes are the nodes that know its current location. Neighbouring nodes or non-anchor nodes calculate its location coordinate (or location reference) with the help of anchor nodes. Ingenuous localization is not possible in the presence of a cheating ...

Malicious anchor nodes will constantly hinder genuine and appropriate localization. Discovering the malicious or vulnerable anchor node is an essential problem in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In wireless sensor networks, anchor nodes are the nodes that know its current location. Neighbouring nodes or nonanchor nodes calculate its location (or its location reference) with the help of anchor ...

We study an interactive live streaming scenario where multiple peers pull streams of the same free viewpoint video that are synchronized in time but not necessarily in view. In free viewpoint video, each user can periodically select a virtual view between two anchor camera views for display. The virtual view is synthesized using texture and depth videos of the anchor views via depth-image-based...

The University of Melbourne carried out experiments in the Terabyte and Web tracks of TREC 2004. We applied a further variant of our impact-based retrieval approach by integrating evidence from text content, anchor text, URL depth, and link structure into the process of ranking documents, working toward a retrieval system that handles equally well all of the four query types employed in these t...
