Multiple-shot person re-identification deals with the problem to build the correspondence between the images of the same person appearing at different sites captured by onsite deployed cameras. The difficulty stems from large within-class but small betweenclass variations caused by the change of person appearance and environment. Traditional methods on feature/signature design and/or distance/d...

The behavior of the “constants”, G, c, h̄, a, e, mi and Λ, considering them as variable, in the framework of a flat cosmological model with FRW symmetries described by a bulk viscous fluid and considering mechanisms of adiabatic matter creation are investigated. Two cases are studied; one with radiation predominance and another of matter predominance. It is found that with the solution obtained ...

This paper presents the application of covariance and Enhanced Normalized Cross Correlation (ENCC) algorithm in a multi-wavelet based stereo correspondence matching. A balanced multi-wavelet transform is applied to a pair of stereo images de-correlating each input image into its multiwavelet’s sub-bands. The resulting four multi-wavelet basebands of each view are then used to calculate the disp...

In this paper, we study matching integral graphs of small order. A graph is called matching integral if the zeros of its matching polynomial are all integers. Matching integral graphs were first studied by Akbari, Khalashi, etc. They characterized all traceable graphs which are matching integral. They studied matching integral regular graphs. Furthermore, it has been shown that there is no matc...

schema matching is a critical step in many applications, such as data warehouse loading, online analytical process (olap), data mining, semantic web [2] and schema integration. this task is defined for finding the semantic correspondences between elements of two schemas. recently, schema matching has found considerable interest in both research and practice. in this paper, we present a new impr...

To avoid both the inconsistency of the Kalman filter and the performance conservation of the covariance intersection (CI) in the case of unknown correlations, an internal ellipsoidal approximation (IEA) method is proposed to fuse the local estimations. A numerical example of three-state radar tracking system is presented to illustrate the implementation and effectiveness of the proposed algorit...

This paper shows that the unequal incidence of recessions in labor market amplifies aggregate shocks. Using administrative data from United States, I document a positive covariance between workers' marginal propensities to consume (MPCs) and their elasticities earnings GDP, which is key moment for new class heterogeneous-agent models. define matching multiplier as increase stemming this high MP...

We present a method for recovering three-dimensional (3D) human body motion from monocular video sequences based on a robust image matching metric, incorporation of joint limits and non-selfintersection constraints, and a new sample-and-refine search strategy guided by rescaled cost-function covariances. Monocular 3D body tracking is challenging: besides the difficulty of matching an imperfect,...
