FUTURE WORK Document the code and make it publically available. Automatic initialization, test different tracker and detector, eliminate planarity assumption, explicitly handle out-of-plane rotation, track multiple targets, learn shape. Our goal is long-term, real-time tracking of arbitrary objects. The object is defined by a region of interest in a single frame. The video sequence is unconstra...

In this paper, we are presenting a graphical user interface to browse and explore the IndoWordnet lexical database for various Indian languages. IndoWordnet visualizer extracts the related concepts for a given word and displays a sub graph containing those concepts. The interface is enhanced with different features in order to provide flexibility to the user. IndoWordnet visualizer is made publ...

In this study we consider the performance of different feature detectors used as the basis for the registration of images from two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. These are three spot detectors also used to identify proteins, and two domain independent keypoint detectors. We conduct a case study with images from a publically available data set which are synthetically distorted using thin plate...

The electrocardiogram (ECG) signal has great importance in diagnosing cardiac arrhythmias. In this paper we have compared three classifiers on the basis of their accuracies for the detection of arrhythmia. The algorithms that are used for classification are supervised machine learning algorithm. The performance of the classifier depends upon its accuracy rate. The classifiers used are Nearest N...

To date, only a few conserved miRNAs have been predicted in hexaploid (AABBDD) bread wheat and till now community behavior among miRNA is still in dark. Analysis of publically available 1287279 ESTs from NCBI resulted 262 putative pre-miRNAs and 39 novel mature miRNAs. A total 22,468 targets were identified on 21 chromosomes. MiRNA target community was identified for genomes with different leve...

Background. There is limited literature assessing the outcomes of bariatric surgery in a publically funded, North American, multidisciplinary bariatric program. Our objective was to assess outcomes of roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in a publically funded bariatric program through a retrospective review of patient records. Methods. 293 patients spent a median of 13 months attending a multidisci...

This week, Scientific Data published a collection of eight papers that describe datasets from high-throughput functional genomics screens, primarily utilizing RNA interference (RNAi). The publications explore host-pathogen dependencies, innate immune response, disease pathways, and cell morphology and motility at the genome-level. All data, including raw images from the high content screens, ar...

Statistical Analysis: We utilized four publically available case/control genome wide association studies (GWAS) from dbGAP (access request # 1961) across multiple cancer types (including breast, melanoma. lung and prostate cancers)(14, 523, 524, 526-528) to determine if SNPs or haplotypes constructed from SNPs in our genes of interest are associated with a disease phenotype. Additionally, we de...

Pose estimation in the context of human motion analysis is the process of approximating the body configuration in each frame of a motion sequence. We propose a novel pose estimation method based on fitting a skeletal model to tree structures built from skeletonised visual hulls reconstructed from multi-view video. The pose is estimated independently in each frame, hence the method can recover f...

This paper describes a system that enables parallel programs written using the BSPlib communications library to migrate processes among a network of workstations. Not only does the system provide fault tolerance of BSPlib jobs, but by utilising a load manager that maintains an approximation of the global load of the system, it is possible to continually schedule the migration of BSP processes o...
