3-D Gaze Scan Path by Inside-out Camera System

Measuring the 3-D gaze trajectory of a user moving dynamically in 3-D space is interesting for understanding a user’s intention and behavior. In this paper, we present a system for recovering 3-D scan path and scene structure in 3-D space on the basis of ego-motion computed from an inside-out camera. Experimental results show that the 3-D scan paths of a user moving in complex dynamic environme...

The Foster-Greer-Thorbecke Poverty Measures: Twenty Five Years Later

Twenty-five years ago the FGT class of decomposable poverty measures was introduced in Foster, Greer, and Thorbecke (1984). The present study provides a retrospective view of the FGT paper and the subsequent literature, as well as a brief discussion of future directions. We begin by describing the context and origins of our paper, and identify three categories of contributions: to measurement, ...

Decomposing the Foster-Greer-Thorbecke Index of Vulnerability to Poverty

This paper applies the decomposition of the Foster-Greer-Thorbecke poverty index to the measurement of the individual vulnerability to poverty. I highlight that poverty risk can be expressed as a function of expected incidence, expected intensity and expected downward variability. An empirical illustration is provided using the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS) and the Survey on Household I...
