In the field of computer animation the process of creating an animated character is usually a long and tedious task. An animation character is usually efined by a 3D mesh (a set of triangles in the space) that gives its ...
Ensuring the data correctness of some information system is a crucial task. So, software engineers specify sets of integrity constraints that should be satisfied by the system's data. These constraints, however, can be ...
Present systems for the acquisition of medical images are providing better and better resolution images which end up in bigger amounts of data, even in scenarios with learning or training purposes. Interactive inspection ...
As distributed electronic systems grow to include thousands of components, from grid to peer-to-peer nodes, from (Semantic) Web services to web-apps to computation in the cloud, governance of such systems is becoming a ...
Syntactic Dependency Parsing and Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) are two main problems in Natural Language Understanding. Both tasks are closely related and can be regarded as parsing on top of a given sequence. In the ...
Geographical Information Access (GeoIA) can be defined as a way of retrieving information from textual collections that includes the automatic analysis and interpretation of the geographical constraints and terms present ...
Here, old and new linguistic universals, i.e. properties obeyed by all languages on Earth are investigated. Basic principles of language predicting linguistic universals are also investigated. More precisely, two principles ...
Learning latent variable models is a fundamental machine learning problem, and the models belonging to this class - which include topic models, hidden Markov models, mixture models and many others - have a variety of ...
Conformance Checking is a new research discipline devoted to identify deviations between business process models and their real executions. Identifying deviations boils down to the notion of alignment conceptually. An ...
The first chapter introduces an approach to machine learning (ML) were data is understood as a network of connected entities. This strategy seeks inter-entity information for knowledge discovery, in contrast with traditional ...
Over the course of 60 years, since the invention of the integrated circuit (IC), exponential improvements in cost, performance and power consumption were observed. Such advances have been strongly linked with the continuous ...
One of the challenges in Natural Language Processing (NLP) is the unstructured nature of texts, in which useful information is not easily identifiable. Information Extraction (IE) aims to alleviate it by enabling automatic ...
Nowadays, it is widely accepted that many of modern lifestyle habits such as diet and exercise, together with genetics, play an important role in the development of many diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, ...
Service Oriented Computing (SOC) has been established in the last recent years as a successful paradigm in Software Engineering. The systems built under this paradigm, known as Service Based System (SBS), are composed of ...
Malignant tumours of the brain represent one of the most difficult to treat types of cancer due to the sensitive organ they affect. Clinical management of the pathology becomes even more intricate as the tumour mass increases ...
In an attempt to understand how Internet-like network and social networks behave, different models have been proposed and studied throughout history to capture their most essential aspects and properties. Network Creation ...
(English) High-throughput omics technologies produce large-scale heterogeneous data that provide complementary views of the underlying complexity of the studied organism. To exploit these new data to answer biomedical ...
With the growth of the Internet, computational systems have become more and more complex, often including complicate interconnected networks of autonomous components. The need to bring some organisational structure into ...
We are facing a global climate crisis that is demanding a change in the status quo of how we produce, distribute and consume energy. In the last decades, this is being redefined through Smart Grids(SG), an intelligent ...
Techniques devoted to deform 3D models are an important research field in Computer Graphics. They can be used in differentstages: the modelling phase, the animation process and also during some special simulations. ...
