Action anticipation, which aims to recognize the action with a partial observation, becomes increasingly popular due to a wide range of applications. In this paper, we investigate the problem of 3D action anticipation from streaming videos…
Internet traffic displays many persistent periodicities (oscillations) on a large range of time scales. This paper describes the measurement methodology to detect Internet traffic periodicities and also describes the main periodicities in…
Video on Demand (VoD) services like Netflix and YouTube account for ever increasing fractions of Internet traffic. It is estimated that this fraction will cross 80% in the next three years. Most popular VoD services have recommendation…
We introduce a novel algorithm to perform graph clustering in the edge streaming setting. In this model, the graph is presented as a sequence of edges that can be processed strictly once. Our streaming algorithm has an extremely low memory…
We examine the properties of all HTTP requests generated by a thousand undergraduates over a span of two months. Preserving user identity in the data set allows us to discover novel properties of Web traffic that directly affect models of…
The importance of modeling and analyzing Social Networks is a consequence of the success of Online Social Networks during last years. Several models of networks have been proposed, reflecting the different characteristics of Social…
As the rapid progress of the media streaming applications such as video streaming can be classified into two types of streaming, Live video streaming, Video on Demand (VoD). Live video streaming is a service which allows the clients to…
The QUIC transport protocol represents a significant evolution in web transport technologies, offering improved performance and reduced latency compared to traditional protocols like TCP. Given the growing number of QUIC implementations,…
There has been rampant propagation of fake news and misinformation videos on many platforms lately, and moderation of such content faces many challenges that must be overcome. Recent research has shown the feasibility of identifying video…
Video streaming currently accounts for the majority of Internet traffic. One factor that enables video streaming is HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS), that allows the users to stream video using a bit rate that closely matches the available…
The growing online traffic that is bringing the infrastructure to its limits induces an urgent demand for an efficient content delivery model. Capitalizing social networks and using advanced delivery networks potentially can help to solve…
Analysis and prediction of network traffic has applications in wide comprehensive set of areas and has newly attracted significant number of studies. Different kinds of experiments are conducted and summarized to identify various problems…
We consider the problem of broadcasting a viral video (a large file) over an ad hoc wireless network (e.g., students in a campus). Many smartphones are GPS enabled, and equipped with peer-to-peer (ad hoc) transmission mode, allowing them to…
With the growth of user-generated content, we observe the constant rise of the number of companies, such as search engines, content aggregators, etc., that operate with tremendous amounts of web content not being the services hosting it.…
In recent years, video-related services such as YouTube and Netflix have generated huge amounts of traffic and the network neutrality debate has emerged as a major issue. In this paper, we consider feasibility of using a hybrid of unicast…
Streaming platforms, like Netflix and YouTube, strive to offer high streaming quality (SQ), in terms of bitrate, delays, etc., to their users. Meanwhile, a significant share of content consumption of these platforms is heavily influenced by…
Many applications benefit from sampling algorithms where a small number of well chosen samples are used to generalize different properties of a large dataset. In this paper, we use diverse sampling for streaming video summarization. Several…
HTTP/2 video streaming has caught a lot of attentions in the development of multimedia technologies over the last few years. In HTTP/2, the server push mechanism allows the server to deliver more video segments to the client within a single…
A variety of applications are emerging to support streaming video from mobile devices. However, many tasks can benefit from streaming specific content rather than the full video feed which may include irrelevant, private, or distracting…
Cyber security is one of the most significant technical challenges in current times. Detecting adversarial activities, prevention of theft of intellectual properties and customer data is a high priority for corporations and government…
