Abstract
 Even with lots of attention and work in the computer vision artificial intelligence field, human body pose detection is still a daunting task. The application wide-ranging from health monitoring to public security. This paper focuses on yoga, an art that has been performed for over millennium. In modern society yoga become common method exercise there-in arises demand instruction...

In the current debate, we witness a conflict between the Christian concept of man vs. concepts that justify in vitro fertilization (IVF), genetic enhancement, or the reassignment of sexuality. Modern concepts cannot disregard the historic perspective of the consistent doctrines that the Catholic Church has maintained throughout her 2000-year history and which constitute the precursors of contem...

In typical experiments on ultimatum bargaining, the game is described verbally and the majority of subjects deviate from subgame-perfect behavior. Proposers typically offer significantly more than the minimum possible and responders reject “unfair” offers. In this work, we show that when the ultimatum bargaining game is presented as an abstract game tree, the vast majority of behavior is consis...

A strong edge-coloring of a graph is a function that assigns to each edge a color such that every two distinct edges that are adjacent or adjacent to a same edge receive different colors. The strong chromatic index χs(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of colors used in a strong edge-coloring of G. From a primal-dual point of view, there are three natural lower bounds of χs(G), that is σ(G) ...

In finite games subgame perfect equilibria are precisely those that are obtained by a backwards induction procedure. In large extensive form games with perfect information this equivalence does not hold: Strategy combinations fulfilling the backwards induction criterion may not be subgame perfect in general. The full equivalence is restored only under additional (topological) assumptions. This ...

We prove the existence of a subgame-perfect ε-equilibrium, for every ε > 0, in a class of multi-player games with perfect information, which we call free transition games. The novelty is that a non-trivial class of perfect information games is solved for subgameperfection, with multiple non-terminating actions, in which the payoff structure is generally not semi-continuous. Due to the lack of s...

Let A be a complete discrete valuation ring with possibly imperfect residue field. The purpose of this paper is to give a notion of conductor for Galois representations over A that generalizes the classical Artin conductor. The definition rests on two general results: there is a moduli space that parametrizes the ways of modifying A so that its residue field is perfect, and any information abou...

Applying unawareness belief structures introduced in Heifetz, Meier, and Schipper (2013a), we develop Bayesian games with unawareness, define equilibrium, and prove existence. We show how equilibria are extended naturally from lower to higher awareness levels and restricted from higher to lower awareness levels. We apply Bayesian games with unawareness to investigate the robustness of equilibri...

The functional repertoire of a network is determined by its topology. Ma et al. (2009) analyze enzyme networks with three nodes and take a reverse-engineering approach to ask how many core network topologies can establish perfect adaptation, the ability to reset after perturbation. Surprisingly, the answer is just two.

A concert pianist recorded her practice as she learned the third movement, Presto, of J.S. Bach's Italian Concerto. She also described the formal structure of the piece and reported her decisions about basic features (e.g., fingering), interpretive features (e.g., phrasing), and cues to attend to during performance (performance cues). These descriptions were used to identify which locations, fe...
