Detecting Pedestrians Using Patterns of Motion and Appearance

by Paul Viola, Michael J. Jones, Daniel Snow - IN ICCV , 2003
"... This paper describes a pedestrian detection system that integrates image intensity information with motion information. We use a detection style algorithm that scans a detector over two consecutive frames of a video sequence. The detector is trained (using AdaBoost) to take advantage of both moti ..."

The CES-D scale: A self-report depression scale for research in the general population

by Lenore Sawyer Radloff - Applied Psychological Measurement , 1977
"... The CES-D scale is a short self-report scale designed to measure depressive symptomatology in the general population. The items of the scale are symptoms associated with depression which have been used in previously validated longer scales. The new scale was tested in household interview surveys and ..."

Fast and accurate short read alignment with Burrows-Wheeler transform

by Heng Li, Richard Durbin - BIOINFORMATICS, 2009, ADVANCE ACCESS , 2009
"... Motivation: The enormous amount of short reads generated by the new DNA sequencing technologies call for the development of fast and accurate read alignment programs. A first generation of hashtable based methods has been developed, including MAQ, which is accurate, feature rich and fast enough to a ..."
Abstract - Cited by 2096 (24 self) - Add to MetaCart
to align short reads from a single individual. However, MAQ does not support gapped alignment for single-end reads, which makes it unsuitable for alignment of longer reads where indels may occur frequently. The speed of MAQ is also a concern when the alignment is scaled up to the resequencing of hundreds

The Future of Wires

by Mark Horowitz, Ron Ho, Ken Mai , 1999
"... this paper we first discuss the wire metrics of interest and examine them in a contemporary 0.25m process. We then discuss technology scaling over the next several generations, from SIA and other predictions, and how our wire metrics trend over that time. We will examine the delay and bandwidth lim ..."
Abstract - Cited by 516 (7 self) - Add to MetaCart
limitations of both long global wires and short local wires and discuss architectural design techniques that help us avoid the limitations of scaled wires.

The hierarchy problem and new dimensions at a millimeter

by Savas Dimopoulos, Gia Dvali, et al. , 2008
"... We propose a new framework for solving the hierarchy problem which does not rely on either supersymmetry or technicolor. In this framework, the gravitational and gauge interactions become united at the weak scale, which we take as the only fundamental short distance scale in nature. The observed wea ..."

Kernel-Based Object Tracking

by Dorin Comaniciu, Visvanathan Ramesh, Peter Meer , 2003
"... A new approach toward target representation and localization, the central component in visual tracking of non-rigid objects, is proposed. The feature histogram based target representations are regularized by spatial masking with an isotropic kernel. The masking induces spatially-smooth similarity fu ..."
Abstract - Cited by 900 (4 self) - Add to MetaCart
. In the presented tracking examples the new method successfully coped with camera motion, partial occlusions, clutter, and target scale variations. Integration with motion filters and data association techniques is also discussed. We describe only few of the potential applications: exploitation of background

Snakes: Active contour models

by Michael Kass, Andrew Witkin, Demetri Terzopoulos - INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTER VISION , 1988
"... A snake is an energy-minimizing spline guided by external constraint forces and influenced by image forces that pull it toward features such as lines and edges. Snakes are active contour models: they lock onto nearby edges, localizing them accurately. Scale-space continuation can be used to enlarge ..."

Actions as space-time shapes

by Lena Gorelick, Moshe Blank, Eli Shechtman, Michal Irani, Ronen Basri - IN ICCV , 2005
"... Human action in video sequences can be seen as silhouettes of a moving torso and protruding limbs undergoing articulated motion. We regard human actions as three-dimensional shapes induced by the silhouettes in the space-time volume. We adopt a recent approach [14] for analyzing 2D shapes and genera ..."

Probabilistic Roadmaps for Path Planning in High-Dimensional Configuration Spaces

by Lydia Kavraki, Petr Svestka, Jean-claude Latombe, Mark Overmars - IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION , 1996
"... A new motion planning method for robots in static workspaces is presented. This method proceeds in two phases: a learning phase and a query phase. In the learning phase, a probabilistic roadmap is constructed and stored as a graph whose nodes correspond to collision-free configurations and whose edg ..."

Recovering High Dynamic Range Radiance Maps from Photographs

by Paul E. Debevec, Jitendra Malik
"... We present a method of recovering high dynamic range radiance maps from photographs taken with conventional imaging equipment. In our method, multiple photographs of the scene are taken with different amounts of exposure. Our algorithm uses these differently exposed photographs to recover the respon ..."

With the known response function, the algorithm can fuse the multiple photographs into a single, high dynamic range radiance map whose pixel values are proportional to the true radiance values in the scene
