Speech And Language technologies for Security Applications – SALSA
The goal of the SALSA project (Speech And Language technologies for Security Applications) is to develop a set of speech and language processing tools specifically designed to assist analysts in processing and exploiting audio data for security purposes, such as judicial, law enforcement and intell
Intelligent and communicating real time diagnostics against compartments fires – FireDiag
When there are fire compartments, the decision-making of emergency response are mainly based on human decisions, the result of experience and voluntarism, without a full understanding of its evolution over time. In the fight against the fires, knowledge of their dynamics and their hazards and the ab
Smart pOwer Grid for Energy Efficient small cell Networks – SOGREEN
Europe targets to develop a low-carbon economy through the 2020 roadmap. However, forecast on Information and communications technology (ICT) industry states a continuous increase in global CO2 emissions pushed by the exponential increase in data traffic that characterizes wireless networks. Hence,
Effort and coordination in the production of stop consonants – StopNCo
We often admire high-level athletes for their extraordinary performances and for precise gestural coordination. We forget that we are all vocal athletes too! Speech, that we produce everyday in an automatic way, actually requires a very precise coordination of breathing, laryngeal and articulatory
Sensor-Based Flying Multi-Robot System – SenseFly
The main challenges are in implementing decentralized cooperative estimation and formation control schemes by only using onboard sensing (vision) and communicaiton, and able to cope with the onboard sensing limitations. We chose quadrotor UAVs because of their low cost, agility, and pervasiveness in
Safety Intelligent Sensor for Cobot – SISCob
The major objectives of the sectors of manufacturing and handling services concern the improvements in terms of reducing financial costs, increase quality and productivity; new societal and environmental issues should be taken into account: safety and environmental impact and lack of skilled labor f
a Physical InterNet cross-docking hUb conTrol System – PI-NUTS
The PI-NUTS (“Physical InterNet cross-docking hUb conTrol System”) project contributes to the Physical Internet (p) field, which is an innovative paradigm, breaking with the usual approaches of current actual logistic systems. The aim of this new paradigm is to fight the unsustainability symptoms in
Fostering Uses and Usages of Open Sensor Data in Smart Cities – OpenSensingCity
The main goal of the project is decomposed into the following scientific objectives: O1. Develop ontologies for smart cities. Having well formalised ontologies will allow the description of sensors, data and services that are deployed, produced or used in the context of smart cities. This will impr
VIrtual Characters for team Training: Emotional, Adaptive, Motivated and Social – VICTEAMS
Several application areas need rescuer teams to be trained to manage crises in complex socio-technical environments (e.g. terrorist attacks, natural disasters). The members of these emergency teams need to adapt, under emotional stress, to potential disruptions due to the uncertainties of crisis man
Acurate Human Modeling in Video – ACHMOV
The technological advancements made over the past decade now allow the acquisition of vast amounts of visual information through the use of image capturing devices like digital cameras or camcorders. A central subject of interest in video are the humans, their motions, actions or expressions, the w
