As the classical Gaussian mixture model has some problems of not considering it self’s matching degree of Gaussian density functions, model updating and the background in real video motion detection, made improvements on the three aspects. Optimized Gaussian mixture model’s overall architecture and proposed an improved algorithm according to the analysis of the definition and disadvantages of c...

This paper argues for a game-theoretic approach to content determination that uses text-type specific strategies in order to determine the optimal content for various user types. By means of content determination for the description of numerical data the benefits of a game-theoretic treatment of content determination are outlined.

BACKGROUND University faculty members of different disciplines in any country, by giving better quality services, will further accelerate the development of their respective countries. This study aims to explore the experiences of faculty members about their professional challenges. AIM In this qualitative study, which was conducted in 2013, fifteen faculty members in the departments of clini...

In this paper we rst review the recent research progress in video analysis representation browsing and retrieval Motivated by the mechanism used to access book s content we then present novel tech niques for constructing video Table of

Video processing has found many applications in sports such as slow motion replay, pattern analysis, statistics collection, video archiving, etc. This paper reviews current research in sports video analysis and discusses the research issues of the field and the potential applications.

This paper discusses two problems that arise in the Generation of Referring Expressions: (a) numeric-valued attributes, such as size or location; (b) perspective-taking in reference. Both problems, it is argued, can be resolved if some structure is imposed on the available knowledge prior to content determination. We describe a clustering algorithm which is sufficiently general to be applied to...

The content to be managed in organisations is in textual or multimedia formats. Major part of the content is, however, stored in documents. In order to find out the needs of the people and organisations producing and using the content a profound requirements analysis is needed. In the paper, a novel method for the requirements analysis for content management purposes is introduced. The method c...

The aim of this paper is to suggest a general approach based on Activity Theory for designing computer systems to support collaboration between creative product concept designers. We will focus on the level of action and examine situated actions in design. The research material consists of design workshops in the domain of electronics industry. Activity Theory, which provides the structure of a...

This paper describes our work in examining the question of whether providing a visual informatics application in an educational scenario, in particular, providing video content analysis, does actually yield real benefit in practice. We provide a new software tool in the domain of movie content analysis technologies for use by students of film studies students at Dublin City University, and we t...
