MAGNETO

Multimedia Analysis and Correlation Engine for Organised Crime Prevention and Investigation

MAGNETO addresses significant needs of law enforcement agencies (LEAs) in their fight against terrorism and organised crime, related to the massive volumes, heterogeneity and fragmentation of the data that officers have to analyse for the prevention, investigation and prosecution of criminal offences. These needs have been identified after consulting with eleven different European LEAs –members of the MAGNETO consortium. In response, MAGNETO empowers LEAs with superior crime analysis, prevention and investigation capabilities, by researching and providing tailored solutions and tools based on sophisticated knowledge representation, advanced semantic reasoning and augmented intelligence, well integrated in a common, modular platform with open interfaces. By using the MAGNETO platform, LEAs will have unparalleled abilities to fuse and analyse multiple massive heterogeneous data sources, uncover hidden relationships among data items, compute trends for the evolution of security incidents, ultimately (and at a faster pace) reaching solid evidence that can be used in Court, gaining also better awareness and understanding of current or past security-related situations. In parallel, MAGNETO will spark an ecosystem of third-party solution providers benefiting from its open, modular and reusable architectural framework and standard interfaces.

To achieve these objectives, MAGNETO will test and demonstrate its developments on five representative and complementary use cases (types of crime), under real-life operational conditions in the facilities of eleven different LEAs, keeping them continuously in the production loop, adopting an agile implementation methodology and a multi-disciplinary scientific approach, combining researchers with exceptional track records, officers with top-level operational know-how in law enforcement, recognised experts for legal and ethical compliance to EU and national standards, and qualified training experts for innovative curricula development.

SENSING FEELING

Advanced automated human emotion-sensing for business

The Sensing Feeling project will create new technological capability that will significantly enhance the reliability and effectiveness of monitoring retail customer emotional responses to their surrounding environment. By combining current knowledge in retail environmental psychology with advanced techniques in affective computing and computer vision the project aims to develop sensing technology that when deployed into a physical retail setting will enable the retailer to derive a live and continuous feed of a well-defined "customer delight index" of the retail space being sensed. This will be achieved by detection and aggregation of the multi-modal affective (emotional) states of shoppers' interaction behaviours expressed within the retail setting. The aim is to provide retailers with the ability to unobtrusively and automatically derive a reliable measure of the emotional state of shoppers in response to in-store variables like products displayed, merchandising design, layout design, signage, atmospherics, staff dynamics etc. This will equip retailers with a smarter ability to make informed decisions that accelerate the provision of higher quality in-store customer experiences.

EcoPix

Eco-Friendly Digital Advertising Display Based on Novel Printable Electrochromic Polymers

ECOPIX aims to improve SME partner competitiveness by developing an innovative digital display technology which provides a more cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional paper billboards and existing digital billboards.

ECOPIX will develop the technology to enable addressable electrochromic colour pixels to be printed onto light-weight and flexible plastic sheets, using standard printing methods, to deliver a low-power, light weight, digital colour display, for the high growth "out-of-home" advertising sector.

Electrochromic (EC) materials can switch between any colour and a transparent (or dark) state in a graduated manner via an electron-transfer (red-ox) reaction controlled by the applied voltage.

One of the many advantages of EC materials is that only a small electrical charge is required to select and retain the colour state. Commercial EC applications include smart windows, sunglasses and visors with adjustable light transmission and auto-dimming car rear-view mirrors (mirrors with adjustable reflectivity) and displays.

THIRA

Enabling Technologies for High Resolution Content Exchange and Delivery

THIRA is a collaborative project led by the BBC and co-funded by the Technology Strategy Board which addresses usage of larger resolution video formats. Recent advances in video capturing and display technologies provide audiences with higher spatial and temporal resolution content. After High Definition (HD), nowadays Ultra High Definition (UHD) aims to further improve users' quality-of-experience at the cost of increased storage capacity and bandwidth. Ultra high definition targets two formats with 16:9 aspect ratio: the first has twice the width of HD while the second has four times the width of HD. To properly handle the data rates associate to UHD content, the H.265/High Efficiency Video Coding (H.265/HEVC) standard will be mainly used. H.265/HEVC is the newly ratified video compression standard developed by both ITU VCEG and ISO/IEC MPEG in a joint partnership called the Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC). HEVC results from a joint VCEG and MPEG call for proposals on compression technology able to achieve the same perceived quality of the H.264/AVC standard by halving the required bitrate. The H.265/HEVC standard provides a base for handling ultra high resolution content. Underpinning the capabilities of HEVC are computationally expensive, extremely complex and resource demanding algorithms. Consequently, in its current state, H.265/HEVC is unfeasible for practical applications involving very high definition content. THIRA aims to facilitate storage and transmission of the huge amounts of data contained in very high resolution content using the H.265/HEVC standard.

MISSA

More Integrated Systems Safety Assessment

The increase of aerospace systems complexity has meant that by using existing methods for systems development, industry has reached a barrier to innovation and a risk to the competitiveness of products. This is characterised by an increasing time to market for new technologies, increasing costs to demonstrate proof of safety, a greater demand for skilled resources and a limitation on design iterations, which means there is less time to optimise designs that are compliant with safety targets. MISSA aims at filling this gap and providing methods and infrastructure that accelerate the convergence toward optimal system architecture that integrate safety constrains.

Papyrus

Cultural and historical digital libraries dynamically mined from news archives

Past and existing efforts for digital recapturing and preservation of European cultural and scientific heritage have consumed significant effort and resources for the digitisation, characterisation, and classification of content. Digital libraries have thus emerged providing electronic access for many communities of users to available information of their discipline. What has never been targeted, however, is a digital library that draws content from one domain and makes it available to the users of another. Papyrus approaches this need by introducing the concept of a Cross-Discipline Digital Library Engine. The project intends to be a dynamic digital library which will understand user queries in the context of a specific discipline, look for content in a domain alien to that discipline and return the results presented in a way useful and comprehensive to the user.
