متن کاملMasquer Hunter: Adversarial Occlusion-aware Face Detection
Occluded face detection is a challenging detection task due to the large appearance variations incurred by various real-world occlusions. This paper introduces an Adversarial Occlusion-aware Face Detector (AOFD) by simultaneously detecting occluded faces and segmenting occluded areas. Specifically, we employ an adversarial training strategy to generate occlusion-like face features that are diff...
متن کاملEdgar Buckingham: Fluorescence of Quinine Salts
Malaria, an often-fatal disease, has been a worldwide plague for several thousand years. The discovery of the efficacy of substances present in the bark of various cinchona trees, native to the Andes, provided some relief. A real antimalarial drug was not available until 1820, when Joseph Baptiste Caventou (1795-1877) and Josephe Pelletier (1788-1842) isolated quinine from the bark (1). Eighty ...
متن کاملAlignment of Buckingham Parameters to Generalized Lennard-Jones Potential Functions
The Lennard-Jones(12-6) and the Exponential-6 potential functions are commonly used in computational softwares for describing the van der Waals interaction energy. Some softwares allow switching between these two potentials under prescribed condition(s) that attempt to connect the parameter relationship between the two functions. Here we propose a technique by which the parameter relationship b...
متن کاملCentral Ideas of Buckingham (1907): A Century Later
687 Edgar Buckingham became involved with soil physics for 5 yr at the turn of the twentieth century. His general goal was to advance understanding of moisture movement and evaporation from soils to improve irrigation and crop management. Specifi cally, he was interested in elucidating why evaporation from near the soil surface in arid areas during summer months was self-limiting (Buckingham, 1...
