Terahertz imaging modalities of ancient Egyptian mummified objects and of a naturally mummified rat.
During the last few years, terahertz (THz) imaging has been used to investigate artwork and historic artifacts. The application of THz imaging to mummy investigations is very attractive since it provides spectroscopic information over a broad frequency range and its radiation has proven to be harmless to human cells. However, compared with the current standard imaging methods in mummy imaging-X...
متن کاملFrom talking to thinking heads: report 2008
The Thinking Head project has as it aims to develop (i) a new generation Talking Thinking Head that embodies human attributes, and improves human-machine interaction; and (ii) a plug-and-play research platform for users to test software in an interactive real-time environment. Here, project progress is discussed in terms of the four teams: 1. Head Building – (i) Plug-and-Play architecture, (ii)...
متن کاملPhoto-Realistic Talking-Heads from Image Samples
This paper describes a system for creating a photo-realistic model of the human head that can be animated and lip-synched from phonetic transcripts of text. Combined with a state-of-the-art text-to-speech synthesizer (TTS), it generates video animations of talking heads that closely resemble real people. To obtain a naturally looking head, we choose a “data-driven” approach. We record a talking...
متن کاملModeling Heads from Uncalibrated Video Sequences
We show that we can e ectively t a very complex facial animation model to uncalibrated video sequences, without bene t of targets, structured light or any other active device. Our approach is based on regularized bundle-adjustment followed by least-squares minimization using a set of progressively ner control triangulations. It takes advantage of three complementary sources of information: ster...
متن کاملAlaska sentinel surveillance study of Helicobacter pylori isolates from Alaska Native persons from 2000 to 2008.
Helicobacter pylori infection is more common in Alaska Native persons than in the general U.S. population, with seroprevalence to H. pylori approaching 75%. Previous studies in Alaska have demonstrated elevated proportions of antimicrobial resistance among H. pylori isolates. We analyzed H. pylori data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's sentinel surveillance in Alaska from Ja...
