Real-world network applications must cope with failing nodes, malicious attacks, or, somehow, nodes facing corrupted data --- classified as outliers. One enabling application is the geographic localization of the network nodes. However,…
Conventional speaker localization algorithms, based merely on the received microphone signals, are often sensitive to adverse conditions, such as: high reverberation or low signal to noise ratio (SNR). In some scenarios, e.g. in meeting…
