3D high definition video coding on a GPU-based heterogeneous system
Elsevier (2013-11)H.264/MVC is a standard for supporting the sensation of 3D, based on coding from 2 (stereo) to N views. H.264/MVC adopts many coding options inherited from single view H.264/AVC, and thus its complexity is even higher, ... -
A 3D grasping system based on multimodal visual and tactile processing
Emerald Group Publishing (2009)urpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a novel multimodal approach to the problem of planning and performing a reliable grasping action on unmodeled objects. Design/methodology/approach – The robotic system is ... -
A benchmarking study on single image dehazing techniques for underwater autonomous vehicles
IEEE (2017-06)Enhancing the underwater images is of utmost importance for autonomous underwater vehicles. This kind of robots usually have to deal with highly degraded images from which it is extremely difficult to accurately find, ... -
A Biologically Inspired Approach for Robot Depth Estimation
Hindawi (2018)Aimed at building autonomous service robots, reasoning, perception, and action should be properly integrated. In this paper, the depth cue has been analysed as an early stage given its importance for robotic tasks. So, ... -
A Case for Malleable Thread-Level Linear Algebra Libraries: The LU Factorization With Partial Pivoting
IEEE (2019-01)We propose two novel techniques for overcoming load-imbalance encountered when implementing so-called look-ahead mechanisms in relevant dense matrix factorizations for the solution of linear systems. Both techniques target ... -
A community-of-practice-based evaluation methodology for knowledge intensive computational methods and its application to multimorbidity decision support
Elsevier (2023-06)Objective: The study has dual objectives. Our first objective (1) is to develop a community-of-practice-based evaluation methodology for knowledge-intensive computational methods. We target a whitebox analysis of the ... -
A complete and efficient CUDA-sharing solution for HPC clusters
Elsevier (2014)In this paper we detail the key features, architectural design, and implementation of rCUDA, an advanced framework to enable remote and transparent GPGPU acceleration in HPC clusters. rCUDA allows decoupling GPUs from ... -
A Customer Churn Detection Model for the Pay-TV Sector
Ios Press (2021) -
A customized precision format based on mantissa segmentation for accelerating sparse linear algebra
Wiley (2019)In this work, we pursue the idea of radically decoupling the floating point format used for arithmetic operations from the format used to store the data in memory. We complement this idea with a customized precision memory ... -
A Data Quality Multidimensional Model for Social Media Analysis
Springer (2023-11-10)Social media platforms have become a new source of useful information for companies. Ensuring the business value of social media first requires an analysis of the quality of the relevant data and then the development of ... -
A Data-Parallel ILUPACK for Sparse General and Symmetric Indefinite Linear Systems
Springer (2017-05-28)The solution of sparse linear systems of large dimension is a critical step in problems that span a diverse range of applications. For this reason, a number of iterative solvers have been developed, among which ILUPACK ... -
A deep hybrid learning model for customer repurchase behavior
Elsevier (2020-11-28)Smartphones have become an integral part of our daily lives, which has led to the rapid growth of the smartphone market. As the global smartphone market tends to remain stable, retaining existing customers has become a ... -
A distributed architecture for enabling autonomous underwater intervention missions
IEEE (2010)This work introduces the main aspects related with a new architecture defined for an ongoing research project named RAUVI (i.e. Reconfigurable AUV for Intervention Missions). Two initially independent architectures for ... -
A document clustering algorithm for discovering and describing topics
Elsevier (2010)In this paper, we introduce a new clustering algorithm for discovering and describing the topics comprised in a text collection. Our proposal relies on both the most probable term pairs generated from the collection and ... -
A factored variant of the Newton iteration for the solution of algebraic Riccati equations via the matrix sign function
Springer (2013)In this paper we introduce a variant of the Newton iteration for the matrix sign function that results in an efficient numerical solver for a certain class of algebraic Riccati equations (AREs). In particular, when the ... -
