In this project, I develop an approach to post process local pedestrian detection by incorporating cues from the background. This approach uses a combination of several location specific color classifiers to quickly reduce the number of the local detector responses by discarding improbable results. An experimental method for color comparison is explored in this project to supplement existing te...

Individuals with social anxiety often report considerable ruminative thoughts following ambiguous social events (post-event processing). The purpose of this study was to determine whether post-event processing affects retrieval of autobiographical memories rated as negative, anxious and shameful in a sample of socially anxious individuals and controls. Results indicated that, compared to contro...

This paper describes the participation of the LIG-MRIM research team to the Lifelog Semantic Access sub-task of the NTCIR-12 (2016). Our approach mainly relies on mapping the query terms to visual concepts computed on the Lifelogs images according to two separated learning schemes. A post-processing is then performed if the topic is related to temporal, location or activity information associat...

Condition monitoring (CM) plays a relevant role in production systems, for example, with machine tools. To obtain an accurate result when analyzing the condition of a machine tool and its components, it is necessary to integrate data from different sources. The types of data include: internal data from the Computer Numerical Control (CNC), external sensors, and value-added information coming fr...

We describe the state of the art in the area of core computation for data exchange. Two main approaches are considered: post-processing core computation, applied to a canonical universal solution constructed by chasing a given schema mapping, and direct core computation, where the mapping is first rewritten in order to create core universal solutions by chasing it. 1998 ACM Subject Classificati...

We use the Okapi retrieval system to conduct the email discussion search. The following issues are investigated. First, we make use of the thread structure in the emails to re-rank the documents retrieved by Okapi. We would like to see whether such post-processing of the retrieval result can boost the retrieval performance. Second, in terms of query formulation, we investigate whether the use o...

Actin, a major component of the cytoplasm, is also abundant in the nucleus. Nuclear actin is involved in a variety of nuclear processes including transcription, chromatin remodeling, and intranuclear transport. Nevertheless, the regulation of nuclear actin by posttranslational modifications has not been investigated. We now show that nuclear actin is modified by SUMO2 and SUMO3 and that computa...

With the growing number of consumer-oriented depth sensors like the Kinect or the newly released Phab2Pro, the question of how precise these sensors are arises. In this thesis we want to evaluate the average noise in the generated depth measurements in both the axial direction and the lateral directions. As part of a two-part project this thesis will view the noise’s development with varying di...

This paper introduces a system for expressive locomotion generation that takes as input a set of sample locomotion clips and a motion path. Significantly, the system only requires a single sample of straight-path locomotion for each style modeled and can produce output locomotion for an arbitrary path with arbitrary motion transition points. For efficient locomotion generation, we represent eac...
