Estimating the Joint Tail Risk Under the Filtered Historical Simulation. An Application to the CCP's Default and Waterfall Fund
(Geneva :Swiss Finance Institute, 2015)
To ensure that central counterparties (“CCPs”) are safe in all market conditions the European Union (EU) has adopted legislation, commonly known as the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (“EMIR”) that deal with their ...
Combining Syntactic and Semantic Evidence for Improving Matching over Linked Data Sources
(Springer Link, 2015-11)
In the context of Linked Data (LD) sources, the ability to traverse links and retrieve further information can be exploited to harvest semantic annotations. Such annotations can, in turn, underpin the inference of semantic ...
Structure Inference for Linked Data Sources Using Clustering
(Springer Link, 2015-02-24)
Linked Data (LD) overlays the World Wide Web of documents with a Web of Data. This is becoming significant as shown in the growth of LD repositories available as part of the Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud. At the instance-level, ...
Localizing global descriptors for content-based image retrieval
(Springer, 2015)
In this paper, we explore, extend and simplify the localization of the description ability of the well-established MPEG-7
(Scalable Colour Descriptor (SCD), Colour Layout Descriptor (CLD) and Edge Histogram Descriptor ...
What, Where and How? Introducing pose manifolds for industrial object manipulation
(Elsevier, 2015)
In this paper we propose a novel method for object grasping that aims to unify robot vision techniques for 24
efficiently accomplishing the demanding task of autonomous object manipulation. Through ontological 25
concepts, ...
Image Moment Invariants as Local Features for Content Based Image Retrieval using the Bag-of-Visual-Words Model
(Elsevier, 2015)
This paper presents an image retrieval framework that uses affine image moment invariants as descriptors of local image areas. Detailed feature vectors are generated by feeding the produced moments into a Bag-of-Visual-Words ...
Employing Cellular Automata for Shaping Accurate Morphology Maps Using Scattered Data from Robotics’ Missions
(Springer, 2015)
Accurate maps are essential in the case of robot teams, so that they can operate autonomously and accomplish their tasks efficiently. In this work we present an approach which allows the generation of detailed maps, suitable ...
Color and Edge Directivity Descriptor on GPGPU
(IEEE (Computer Society), 2015)
Image indexing refers to describing the visual multimedia content of a medium, using high level textual information or/and low level descriptors. In most cases, images and videos are associated with noisy and incomplete ...
The NOPTILUS project overview: A fully-autonomous navigation system of teams of AUVs for static/dynamic underwater map construction
(IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control), 2015)
Within the project NOPTILUS, a fully functional system/methodology had been
developed that allows the cooperative, fully-autonomous navigation of teams of AUVs when
deployed in Static or Dynamic Underwater Map Construction ...
Versatile Query Scrambling for Private Web Search
(Springer Link, 2015-05-16)
We consider the problem of privacy leaks suffered by Internet users when they perform web searches, and propose a framework to mitigate them. In brief, given a ‘sensitive’ search query, the objective of our work is to ...
