Masking the Effects of Delays in Human-to-Human Remote Interaction
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2014)
Humans can interact remotely with each other through computers. Systems supporting this include teleconferencing, games and virtual environments. There are delays from when a human does an action until it is reflected remotely. When delays are too large, they will result in inconsistencies in what the state of the interaction is as seen by each participant. The delays can be reduced, but they cannot ...
Uncertainty Estimation and Visualization of Wind in Weather Forecasts
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2014-01)
The Collaborative Symbiotic Weather Forecasting system, CSWF, let individual users do on-demand small region, short-term, and very high-resolution forecasts. When the regions have some overlap, a symbiotic forecast can be produced based on the individual forecasts from each region. Small differences in where the center of the region is located when there is complex terrain in the region, leads to ...
Using machine learning to provide automatic image annotation for wildlife camera traps in the Arctic
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2017)
The arctic tundra is considered the terrestrial biome expected to be most impacted by climate change, with temperatures projected to increase as much as 10 °C by the turn of the century. The Climate-ecological Observatory for Arctic Tundra (COAT) project monitors the climate and ecosystems using several sensor types. We report on results from projects that automate image annotations from two of the ...
CSP at the Cyber-Physical Edge
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2019)
Today, to do ground-based in-situ observations of the arctic tundra, researchers carry wild life cameras and other observation units into the field, manually configure the devices while on the arctic tundra, and fetch the collected data several months later. This approach does not scale. Instead, observing and reporting of data must be automated using a distributed wireless network of autonomous ...
