Single-Person Household Needs with a Focus on Interior Planning

Egocentric Basketball Motion Planning from a Single First-Person Image

We present a model that uses a single first-person image to generate an egocentric basketball motion sequence in the form of a 12D camera configuration trajectory, which encodes a player’s 3D location and 3D head orientation throughout the sequence. To do this, we first introduce a future convolutional neural network (CNN) that predicts an initial sequence of 12D camera configurations, aiming t...

Optimal retirement planning with a focus on single and multilife annuities Management Science DTU Management Engineering

We optimize the asset allocation, consumption and bequest decisions of an investor with uncertain lifetime and under time-varying investment opportunities. The asset menu is given by stocks, zero coupon bonds and pure endowments with different maturities. The latter are contingent on either a single or a joint life, and pay fixed or variable benefits. We further include transaction costs on sto...

Focus on the person, not the problem.

The NHS is strapped for cash, and doctors must be part of any solution. But how should we respond to demands for ever greater productivity and efficiency? We are encouraged to practise evidence based medicine in a cost effective way. But it’s not always clear when to intervene and when to watch and wait. Evidence to guide decisions often conflicts or is absent; the needs and preferences of our ...

Simultaneous Multi-Person Detection and Single-Person Pose Estimation With a Single Heatmap Regression Network

We propose a two component fully-convolutional network for heatmap regression to perform multi-person pose estimation from images. The first component of the network predicts all body joints of all persons visible on an image, while the second component groups these body joints based on the position of the head of the person of interest. By applying the second component for all detected heads, ...
