چکیده
Warning: This draft is draftier than you might expect. More specifically, • Some sections are missing. • Many sections are incomplete. In most cases the incompleteness is noted, but occasionally it isn’t. • Some sections were written nearly two years ago, and are now outdated. • There are not yet enough citations to similar work of other people. Despite all this, there’s probably enough decipherable material here to interest the motivated reader. On the other hand, if you are only going to read this paper once, then don’t read this version, as a more complete version will be available in a couple of months.

Using a Novel Concept of Potential Pixel Energy for Object Tracking
Abstract In this paper, we propose a new method for kernel based object tracking which tracks the complete non rigid object. Definition the union image blob and mapping it to a new representation which we named as potential pixels matrix are the main part of tracking algorithm. The union image blob is constructed by expanding the previous object region based on the histogram feature. The pote...
متن کاملReduced-Reference Image Quality Assessment based on saliency region extraction
In this paper, a novel saliency theory based RR-IQA metric is introduced. As the human visual system is sensitive to the salient region, evaluating the image quality based on the salient region could increase the accuracy of the algorithm. In order to extract the salient regions, we use blob decomposition (BD) tool as a texture component descriptor. A new method for blob decomposition is propos...
متن کاملHigh Reynolds Viscous Flow Simulation Past the Elliptical Airfoil by Random Vortex Blob
In this paper, numerical simulation for a two-dimensional viscous and incompressible flow past the elliptical airfoil is presented by Random Vortex Blob (RVB). RVB is a numerical technique to solve the incompressible, two-dimensional and unsteady Navier-Stocks equations by converting them to rotational non-primitive formulations. In this method, the velocity vector at a certain point can be cal...
متن کاملHigher categories, colimits, and the blob complex.
We summarize our axioms for higher categories, and describe the "blob complex." Fixing an n-category , the blob complex associates a chain complex B(*)(W;C) to any n-manifold W. The zeroth homology of this chain complex recovers the usual topological quantum field theory invariants of W. The higher homology groups should be viewed as generalizations of Hochschild homology (indeed, when W = S(1)...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Characteristics, Physical Concepts and Entropy Generation in a Turbulent Channel Flow Using Vortex Blob Method
In this paper, using vortex blob method (VBM), turbulent flow in a channel is studied and physical concepts of turbulence are obtained and discussed. At first, time-averaged velocities, and , and then their fluctuations are calculated. To clarify turbulence structures, velocity fluctuations and are plotted. It is observed that turbulence structures occupy different positions and move with con...
متن کاملPeople Counting In Complex Scenarios
This paper addresses vision-based people counting under the assumption of an oblique stationary camera setup without any usage of tracking. Our approach is based on motion detection and blob analysis. The estimation of the number of people in the scene is done by accumulating the estimation values of each blob. The blob specific estimation values are computed using four input values: the minimu...
