Gestures are a topic of increasing interest in authentication and successful implementation as a security layer requires reliable gesture recognition. So far much work focuses on new ways to recognize gestures, leaving discussion on the…

Answering exact shortest path distance queries is a fundamental task in graph theory. Despite a tremendous amount of research on the subject, there is still no satisfactory solution that can scale to billion-scale complex networks.…

SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and mapping) is one of the most challenging problems for mobile platforms and there is a huge amount of modern SLAM algorithms. The choice of the algorithm that might be used in every particular problem…

The geographical location of Internet IP addresses has an importance both for academic research and commercial applications. Thus, both commercial and academic databases and tools are available for mapping IP addresses to geographic…

Map construction methods automatically produce and/or update road network datasets using vehicle tracking data. Enabled by the ubiquitous generation of georeferenced tracking data, there has been a recent surge in map construction…

We propose simple schemes that can perfectly identify projective measurement apparatus secretly chosen from a finite set. Entanglements are used in these schemes both to make possible the perfect identification and to improve the efficiency…

In this paper, we discuss one approach for development and deployment of web sites (web pages) devoted to the description of objects (events) with a precisely delineated geographic scope. This article describes the usage of context-aware…

Absolute position accuracy is the key performance criterion of an Indoor Localization System (ILS). Since ILS are heterogeneous and complex cyber-physical systems, the localization accuracy depends on various influences from the…

While general object recognition is still far from being solved, this paper proposes a way for a robot to recognize every object at an almost human-level accuracy. Our key observation is that many robots will stay in a relatively closed…

Traffic is constrained by the information involved in locating the receiver and the physical distance between sender and receiver. We here focus on the former, and investigate traffic in the perspective of information handling. We re-plot…

Mathematical models could be helpful in assisting the Indian Government's new initiative of issuing biometric cards to its citizens. In this note, we look into the role of mathematical models in estimating the missing, non-enumerated…

The notion of the $x$-minute city is again popular in urban planning, but the practical implications of developing walkable neighborhoods have not been rigorously explored. What is the scale of the challenge that cities needing to retrofit…

Public charging infrastructure plays a crucial role in the context of electrifying the private mobility sector in particular for urban regions. Against this background, we develop a new mathematical model for the optimal placement of public…

Given an unlabeled road map, we consider, from an algorithmic perspective, the cartographic problem to place non-overlapping road labels embedded in their roads. We first decompose the road network into logically coherent road sections,…

Understanding design decisions in relation to the future occupants of a building is a crucial part of good design. However, limitations in tools and expertise hinder meaningful human-centric decisions during the design process. In this…

Determining the exact latitude and longitude that a photo was taken is a useful and widely applicable task, yet it remains exceptionally difficult despite the accelerated progress of other computer vision tasks. Most previous approaches…

Identifying current and future informal regions within cities remains a crucial issue for policymakers and governments in developing countries. The delineation process of identifying such regions in cities requires a lot of resources. While…

The interconnected smart devices and industrial internet of things devices require low-latency communication to fulfill control objectives despite limited resources. In essence, such devices have a time-critical nature but also require a…

We consider the problem of geographically distributed data storage in a network of servers (or nodes) where the nodes are connected to each other via communication links having certain round-trip times (RTTs). Each node serves a specific…

Efficient and accurate state estimation is essential for the optimal management of the future smart grid. However, to meet the requirements of deploying the future grid at a large scale, the state estimation algorithm must be able to…
