Spatiotemporal representations learned using 3D convolutional neural networks (CNN) are currently used in state-of-the-art approaches for action-related tasks. However, 3D-CNN are notorious for being memory and compute resource intensive as compared...

With power designers always demanding for faster power switches, electromagnetic interference has become an issue of primary concern. As known, the commutation of power transistors is the main cause of the electromagnetic noise, which can be worsened...

Most IoT networks implement one-way messages from the sensor nodes to the “application host server” via a gateway. Messages from any sensor node in the network are sent when its sensor is triggered or at regular intervals as dictated by the applicati...

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have gained significant attention in recent years, with impressive applications highlighted in computer vision, in particular. Compared to such examples, however, there have been more limited applications of GAN...

This paper proposes an automatic image correction method for portrait photographs, which promotes consistency of facial skin color by suppressing skin color changes due to background colors. In portrait photographs, skin color is often distorted due...

Vulnerable traffic users, such as bikers and pedestrians, account for a significant number of fatalities on the roadways. Extensive research has been conducted in the literature review to identify factors to those crashes. Studying factors to those c...

This paper describes an automatic drum transcription (ADT) method that directly estimates a tatum-level drum score from a music signal in contrast to most conventional ADT methods that estimate the frame-level onset probabilities of drums. To estimat...

We developed a hearing assistance system that enables hearing-impaired people to track the horizontal movement of a single sound source. The movement of the sound source is presented to the subject by vibrating vibrators on both shoulders according t...

This paper presents a novel adaptive probabilistic algorithm to identify damage characteristics by integrating the use of the frequency response function with an optimization approach. The proposed algorithm evaluates the probability of damage existe...

Voice transformation, for example, from a male speaker to a female speaker, is achieved here using a two-level dynamic warping algorithm in conjunction with an artificial neural network. An outer warping process which temporally aligns blocks of spee...
