Deep video compression has attracted increasing attention in recent years due to its end-to-end optimization ability. However, most existing neural video compression (NVC) models focus on incorporating sophisticated motion or residual coding networks for ...

The widespread adoption of digital twins gave rise to emerging systems of interconnected digital twins, often dubbed aggregated or hierarchical digital twins. In such emerging systems, interoperability of digital twins is key in determining the ...

This document introduces the sate of the art of substation inspection robot which is an autonomous robotic system for inspecting equipment in substations. An overview of the existing robotics is presented, including robotics from China, the USA, New ...

This tutorial deals with the integration of data engineering with network management and orchestration in telecommunication networks. It provides participants with a comprehensive insight into the use of data engineering to improve the efficiency and ...

Context based data receive an increasing attention for Smart City (SC) flow homogenization and standardization. SC hubness can be a solution that can simplify these flows and transform them to standardized message exchanges, which can be easily ...

Research on cyclists‘ safety and comfort is a growing topic. Existing works address support systems with novel interaction concepts such as augmented reality but also the design and evaluation of high-fidelity bicycle simulators. Since the field is ...

This paper first analyzes the composition of the knowledge graph product certification system, and proposes an evaluation index for basic knowledge graph products and domain knowledge graph products. Secondly, this paper statistically studies the ...

As machine learning (ML) has emerged as the predominant technological paradigm for artificial intelligence (AI), complex black box models such as GPT-4 have gained widespread adoption. Concurrently, explainable AI (XAI) has risen in significance ...

Digital government construction is an important measure to innovate government governance concepts and methods, form a new pattern of digital governance, promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capabilities, and build a ...

In this paper, we propose the Blockchain Benchmark Standardized Format (BBSF), a framework for standardized, transparent, and fair benchmarks for blockchains. BBSF enables users and developers to compare blockchain platforms using metrics derived from ...

Technological advances in image quality and post-processing have led to the better clinical adoption of 3D echocardiography to quantify cardiac function. However, the right ventricle (RV) raises specific challenges due to its specific half-moon ...

Technologies for storing and processing vast amounts of data have opened a new stage in the development of materials science, based on the application of artificial intelligence methods to the results of many years of research. Large volumes of ...

This abstract overviews four technical specifications for Internet Television services developed by the DVB consortium.

Dynamic ad insertion and substitution are increasingly popular to monetize OTT services. A key enabling technique is the signaling of timeslots for insertion or substitution. In practice, SCTE 35 has been used for this, but OTT implementations have ...

When developing scoring models, Weight of Evidence (WOE) transformation is actively used, which is in demand to improve the discriminating power of the factors included in the model. For WOE transformation, various binning methods are used, the ...

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are standardized software packages based on industry “best practice.” Despite this off-the-shelf property, most companies that implement an ERP system choose to customize the software rather than change ...

Data collection on the population is a key mode of public health management in the Global South. This information is seen as a means to improve health metrics through welfare programs. In this study, we examine the changes brought about by an ICT-based ...

Problem definition: We investigate how the degree of standardization (DoS) across service chain-belonging units impacts units’ performance outcomes. We study this question in the nursing home industry, focusing on the DoS in three operational dimensions—...

The lack of transparency in machine learning (ML) systems makes it difficult to identify sources of potential risks and harms. In recent years, various organizations have proposed standardized frameworks and processes for documentation for ML systems. ...

A leaked in-progress proposed standard, ISO 14082, details reporting and measuring procedures for radiative forcing (RF), also known as geoengineering. While ISO denies that the standard should be applied to geoengineering approaches, the material ...
