Containing Family Clutter

چکیده
In this paper, we present material from an ongoing ethnographic investigation of family life. Drawing on selected fieldwork materials, we look at the ways families deal with household clutter, and in particular how clutter can be contained in bowls and drawers. Based on this research, a case is made for rethinking digital media management in domestic settings. We argue that existing solutions, largely based around the PC, inhibit the casual storage and loose organization of content, properties afforded in both bowls and drawers. We explore a design perspective that aims to address this by building on physical properties of the bowl, using salient properties from fieldwork material to sketch out an early concept of an augmented bowl designed to hold physical and digital content.

Clutter Removal in Sonar Image Target Tracking Using PHD Filter
In this paper we have presented a new procedure for sonar image target tracking using PHD filter besides K-means algorithm in high density clutter environment. We have presented K-means as data clustering technique in this paper to estimate the location of targets. Sonar images target tracking is a very good sample of high clutter environment. As can be seen, PHD filter because of its special f...

In radar detection, the existence of the clutter edge in the reference samples considerably degrades the performance of the detector. Hence, clutter edge estimation not only improves the CFAR detectors, but also can be used for partitioning the various areas of the clutter in the clutter map. In this paper, we propose an adaptive algorithm for detecting the clutter edge between two Weibull clut...
متن کاملRadar Signal Detection in K-distributed Clutter by Pade Approximation
In this paper, two suboptimum detectors are proposed for coherent radar signal detection in K-distributed clutter. Assuming certain values for several initial moments of clutter amplitude, the characteristic function of the clutter amplitude is approximated by a limited series. Using the Pade approximation, it is then converted to a rational fraction. Thus, the pdf of the clutter amplitude is o...
متن کاملCompletion and Decomposition of a Clutter into Representable Matroids
This paper deals with the question of completing a monotone increasing family of subsets Γ of a finite set Ω to obtain the linearly dependent subsets of a family of vectors of a vector space. Specifically, we prove that such vectorial completions of the family of subsets Γ exist and, in addition, we show that the minimal vectorial completions of the family Γ provide a decomposition of the clutt...
متن کاملRadar Signal / Image Processing Enhancements Using Alpha - Stable Techniques
In conventional radar signal and image processing, the background clutter and noise are assumed to follow the Gaussian model. Under this assumption, it has been shown that the conventional matched filter is optimal in target detection (Reference 1). However, recent research has found that many nonhomogeneous types of clutter and noise, such as sea clutter, do not fit the Gaussian model well bec...
