In face recognition, LBP (Local Binary Patterns) is a very popular method, which can solve the defects of the traditional local feature extraction methods with fixed scale and small extraction scale. However, the LBP operator only describes the relationship between the center pixel and its neighborhood pixels, it ignores the relationship among the operators. 3DLBP (3 Dimensions Local Binary Patterns)...
Recent developments of modern technologies such as cloud computing, wearable sensor devices and big data have significantly impacted people's daily lives, and offer real potential for an Internet-wide, people-centric ecosystem. These advances in technology will considerably extend human capabilities in acquiring, consuming and sharing personal health information. A future in which we are all equipped...
Virtual machine (VM) based virtual infrastructure has been adopted widely in cloud computing environment for elastic resource provisioning. Performing resource management using VMs, however, is a heavyweight task. In practice, we have identified two scenarios where VM based resource management is less feasible and less resource-efficient. In this paper, we propose a lightweight resource management...
A key problem of relational database is to aggregate different values of the same object and find the first k objects with highest overall values. Many sequential algorithms have been proposed to solve this problem. In this paper, we propose a new parallel algorithm using symmetry breaking strategy. New algorithm is proved to be instance optimal. Experiment results on both synthetic and real data...
Needed from the development of city construction, there is an increasingly high demand to the city lights system in factors of stability, security, economy and reliability. These factors' ensuring will grasp timely, accurate and systematic analyses for the lights system by new and high technologies. With the continuous development of Internet technologies and with the long-range real-time monitoring...
