Carrying out research tasks is only inadequately supported, if not hindered, by current web search engines. This paper therefore proposes functional extensions of WebMap, a semantically induced overlay linking structure on the web to…
We present AirCode, a technique that allows the user to tag physically fabricated objects with given information. An AirCode tag consists of a group of carefully designed air pockets placed beneath the object surface. These air pockets are…
Application developers, in our experience, tend to hesitate when dealing with linked data technologies. To reduce their initial hurdle and enable rapid prototyping, we propose in this paper a framework for building linked data applications.…
Exploring large virtual environments, such as cities, is a central task in several domains, such as gaming and urban planning. VR systems can greatly help this task by providing an immersive experience; however, a common issue with viewing…
Fingerprint-based localization improves the positioning performance in challenging, non-line-of-sight (NLoS) dominated indoor environments. However, fingerprinting models require an expensive life-cycle management including recording and…
In robot navigation, generalizing quickly to unseen environments is essential. Hierarchical methods inspired by human navigation have been proposed, typically consisting of a high-level landmark proposer and a low-level controller. However,…
Environment maps are used to simulate reflections off curved objects. We present a technique to reflect a user, or a group of users, in a real environment, onto a virtual object, in a virtual reality application, using the live video feeds…
Motivation: The visualization and analysis of high-dimensional data are essential in biomedical research. There is a need for secure, scalable, and reproducible tools to facilitate data exploration and interpretation. Results: We introduce…
Background: Software is an important windows to offer a variety of complex instrument control and data processing for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer. NMR software should allow researchers to flexibly implement various…
The rapid progress of physical implementation of quantum computers paved the way of realising the design of tools to help users write quantum programs for any given quantum devices. The physical constraints inherent to the current NISQ…
The pharmaceutical manufacturing faces critical challenges due to the global threat of counterfeit drugs. This paper proposes a new approach of protected QR codes to secure unique product information for safeguarding the pharmaceutical…
In this paper, we argue that modern functional programming languages - in particular, FSharp on the .NET platform - are well suited for the development of distributed, web and cloud applications on the Internet. We emphasize that FSharp can…
Radio map construction requires a large amount of radio measurement data with location labels, which imposes a high deployment cost. This paper develops a region-based radio map from received signal strength (RSS) measurements without…
This paper describes a system whereby a robot detects and track human-meaningful navigational cues as it navigates in an indoor environment. It is intended as the sensor front-end for a mobile robot system that can communicate its…
Adding a pragma directive into the source code is arguably easier than rewriting it, for instance for loop unrolling. Moreover, if the application is maintained for multiple platforms, their difference in performance characteristics may…
A new ensemble of structured codes is introduced. These codes are called Quasi Linear Codes (QLC). The QLC's are constructed by taking subsets of linear codes. They have a looser structure compared to linear codes and are not closed under…
Humans construct internal cognitive maps of their environment directly from sensory inputs without access to a system of explicit coordinates or distance measurements. While machine learning algorithms like SLAM utilize specialized visual…
Local governments, as part of 'smart city' initiatives and to promote interoperability, are increasingly incorporating open-source software into their data management, analysis, and visualisation workflows. Python, with its concise and…
Efficient and reliable detection of generated images is critical for the responsible deployment of generative models. Existing approaches primarily focus on improving detection accuracy and robustness under various image transformations and…
In this paper, we focus on the potential use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for search and rescue (SAR) missions in GPS-denied indoor environments. We consider the problem of navigating a UAV to a wireless signal source, e.g., a…
