ICT’s Approaches to HTD and Tracking at TDT2004
نویسندگان
چکیده
This is ICT’s first year of participation in the TDT evaluation. We participate in two tasks: Hierarchical Topic Detection (HTD) and Tracking. The two systems are both based on vector-space model. We use the method of multi-layered clustering to produce directed acyclic graph (DAG) of topics and improve the performance using the technology of traditional detection task. We only implement a baseline system for the tracking task. Our preprocessor of text help reduce the tracking cost.

Applying mean shift and motion detection approaches to hand tracking in sign language
Hand gesture recognition is very important to communicate in sign language. In this paper, an effective object tracking and hand gesture recognition method is proposed. This method is combination of two well-known approaches, the mean shift and the motion detection algorithm. The mean shift algorithm can track objects based on the color, then when hand passes the face occlusion happens. Several...
متن کاملUMass at TDT 2004
Topic Detection classifies stories into different topics, but HTD requires more than that. Is there any other entities between a story and a topic? [10] views a topic as a structure of inter-related events, which gives us a good hint for this new task. Experiments in [10] show that time locality is a very useful attribute in event organization, and it can also help to solve the complexity probl...

Four experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of ultraviolet (UV) light exposure and several cholecalciferol metabolites on the development of tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) and other parameters associated with vitamin D metabolism in chickens selected for high (HTD) and low (LTD) incidence of TD. In Experiment 1, exposure of chickens to UV light reduced the incidence and severity of...
متن کاملOnline multiple people tracking-by-detection in crowded scenes
Multiple people detection and tracking is a challenging task in real-world crowded scenes. In this paper, we have presented an online multiple people tracking-by-detection approach with a single camera. We have detected objects with deformable part models and a visual background extractor. In the tracking phase we have used a combination of support vector machine (SVM) person-specific classifie...
