Existing distributed NE seeking approaches often overlook practical input constraints or rely on centralized information. To address these issues, a novel edge-based double-layer adaptive control framework is proposed. Specifically, adaptive scaling parameters are embedded into the edge weights of the communication graph, enabling a fully distributed scheme that avoids dependence on centralized or global knowledge. Every participant modifies its strategy by exclusively utilizing local information and communicating with its neighbors to iteratively approach the NE. By incorporating damping terms into the design of the adaptive parameters, the proposed approach effectively suppresses unbounded parameter growth and consequently guarantees the boundedness of the adaptive gains. In addition, to account for actuator saturation, the proposed distributed NE seeking approach incorporates a saturation function, which ensures that control inputs do not exceed allowable ranges. A rigorous Lyapunov-based analysis guarantees the convergence and boundedness of all system variables. Finally, the presentation of simulation results aims to validate the efficacy and theoretical soundness of the proposed approach.展开更多

The proposed approach detects the topic-caption frames, and integrates them with silence clips detection results, as well as shot segmentation results to locate the news story boundaries. The integration of audio-visual features and text information overcomes the weakness of the approach using only image analysis techniques. On test data with 135 400 frames, when the boundaries between news stories are detected, the accuracy rate 85.8% and the recall rate 97.5% are obtained. The experimental results show the approach is valid and robust.展开更多

A multilayer boosted HMM （ MBHMM ） classifier for automatic audio-visual emotion recognition is presented in this paper. A modified Baum-Welch algorithm is proposed for component HMM learn- ing and adaptive boosting （AdaBoost） is used to train ensemble classifiers for different layers （cues）. Except for the first layer, the initial weights of training samples in current layer are decided by recognition results of the ensemble classifier in the upper layer. Thus the training procedure using current cue can focus more on the difficult samples according to the previous cue. Our MBHMM clas- sifier is combined by these ensemble classifiers and takes advantage of the complementary informa- tion from multiple cues and modalities. Experimental results on audio-visual emotion data collected in Wizard of Oz scenarios and labeled under two types of emotion category sets demonstrate that our approach is effective and promising.展开更多

MPEG-4 AVOs are extracted and classified into different groups according to their priority values and scalable layers （visual importance）. These priority values are mapped to the 1P DiffServ per hop behaviors （PHB）. This scheme can selectively discard packets with low importance, in order to avoid the network congestion. Simulation results show that the quality of received video can gracefully adapt to network state, as compared with the ‘best-effort＇ manner. Also, by allowing the content provider to define prioritization of each audio-visual object, the adaptive transmission of object-based scalable video can be customized based on the content.展开更多
