      Video analysis including classification, segmentation or tagging is one of the most challenging but also interesting topics multimedia research currently try to tackle. This is often related to videos from surveillance cameras or social media. In the last years, also medical institutions produce more and more video and image content. Some areas of medical image analysis, like radiology or brain ...

      Jeppsson, Mattis; Espeland, Håvard; Kupka, Tomas; Langseth, Ragnar; Petlund, Andreas; Peng, Qiaoqiao; Xue, Chuansong; Johansen, Dag; Pogorelov, Konstantin; Stensland, Håkon Kvale; Griwodz, Carsten; Riegler, Michael; Halvorsen, Pål (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      360∘ panorama video displayed through Virtual Reality (VR) glasses or large screens offers immersive user experiences, but as such technology becomes commonplace, the need for efficient streaming methods of such high-bitrate videos arises. In this respect, the attention that 360∘ panorama video has received lately is huge. Many methods have already been proposed, and in this paper, we shed more light ...
    • The Nornir run-time system for parallel programs using Kahn process networks on multi-core machines-a flexible alternative to MapReduce 

      Vrba, Zeljko; Halvorsen, Pål; Griwodz, Carsten; Beskow, Paul; Espeland, Håvard; Johansen, Dag (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Even though shared-memory concurrency is a paradigm frequently used for developing parallel applications on small- and middle-sized machines, experience has shown that it is hard to use. This is largely caused by synchronization primitives which are low-level, inherently non-deterministic, and, consequently, non-intuitive to use. In this paper, we present the Nornir run-time system. Nornir is ...
