The Unprepared Caregiver

Unprepared Indestructibility

I present a forcing indestructibility theorem for the large cardinal axiom Vopěnka’s Principle. It is notable in that there is no preparatory forcing required to make the axiom indestructible, unlike the case for other indestructibility results. §

Antimicrobial Resistance: Is the World UNprepared?

Long Blurb: On September 21st 2016 the United Nations General Assembly convenes in New York, United States to tackle a looming and seemingly inevitable global challenge with the potential to threaten the health and wellbeing of all people: antimicrobial resistance. In an Editorial, the PLOS Medicine Editors reflect on the challenge of coordinating the response to antimicrobial resistance in ord...

Hospital Disaster Readiness : Why Are We Unprepared ?

Camera Matchmoving in Unprepared, Unknown Environments

Camera matchmoving is an application involving synthesis of real scenes and artificial objects, in which the goal is to insert computer-generated graphical 3D objects into liveaction footage depicting unmodeled, arbitrary scenes. Graphical objects should be inserted in a way so that they appear to move as if they were a part of the real scene. Seamless, convincing insertion of graphical objects...

Efficient, causal camera tracking in unprepared environments

This paper addresses the problem of tracking the 3D pose of a camera in space, using the images it acquires while moving freely in unmodeled, arbitrary environments. A novel feature-based approach for camera tracking is proposed, intended to facilitate tracking in on-line, time-critical applications such as video see-through augmented reality. In contrast to several existing methods which are d...
